Abstract:
Lymphomas are neoplasms of the human immune system and can be divided into two categories, Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a form of NHL that shares a common distinctive feature with HL, the overexpression CD30. The expression of cytokine receptor CD30 is restricted to proliferating B and T lymphocytes in healthy individuals while its overexpression is associated with several lymphoproliferative diseases such as ALCL and HL. The activation of CD30 via ligand or antibodies triggers various cellular responses ranging from apoptosis

Abstract:
The Hairy enhancer of split 6 (Hes6) protein modulates myogenesis and neurogenesis by repressing inhibitors of differentiation. We demonstrate that Hes6 dependent transcriptional repression in myoblasts is mediated by recruitment to the DNA N-box. Identification of putative targets of Hes6 was attempted by creating inducible clones. Alternately, a target was sought by comparing cells with constitutive Hes6 expression to wildtype cells using DNA microarray technology. Candidate gene analysis of microarray data resulted in the identification of a novel potential target, cardiac helix-loop-helix

Transcriptional enhancers represent the primary basis for differential gene expression. These elements regulate cell type specificity, development, and evolution, with many human diseases resulting from altered enhancer activity.

To fill this gap, in this thesis, I first developed an Integrated Method for Predicting Enhancer Targets (IM-PET).

Cell signaling pathways are frequently used in multiple tissue and stage-specific contexts during multicellular development.

A set of operational rules defines how different enhancers targeted by the same signals interpret and act on these signals.

Ces dernières années, de nombreuses études ont révélé le rôle central des « enhancers » dans ce processus. En effet, des centaines de milliers « enhancers » seraient éparpillés dans le génome humain, majoritairement dans sa portion non-codante, et contrairement au promoteur, leur activatio

Abstract:
Development of the central nervous system requires the precise coordination of intrinsic genetic programs to instruct cell fate, synaptic connectivity and function. The MEF2 family of transcription factors (TFs) plays many essential roles in neural development; however, the mechanisms of gene regulation by MEF2 in neurons remain unclear. This dissertation focuses on the molecular mechanisms by which MEF2 binds to the genome, activates enhancers, and regulates gene expression within the developing nervous system. We find that one MEF2 family member in particular, MEF2D, is an essential regulato
