Nuclear exosome targeting complex safeguards hematopoietic stem cell self-renewal and genomic integrity through resolving R loops. (PubMed, Cell Rep)
Moreover, dysregulation of ZCCHC8 occurs frequently in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and is associated with poor clinical outcomes. Collectively, our findings highlight NEXT as a novel protector of HSCs and position it as a potential therapeutic target for DLBCL.

The NEXT complex regulates H3K27me3 levels to affect cancer progression by degrading G4/U-rich lncRNAs. (PubMed, Nucleic Acids Res)
Notably, the EZH2 inhibitor Tazemetostat (EPZ-6438) exhibits greater sensitivity in cells with higher ZCCHC8 expression. Altogether, our findings demonstrate a novel mechanism that the NEXT complex regulates H3K27me3 levels by degrading nascent G4/U-Rich lncRNAs in cancer cells.

The MYCN oncoprotein is an RNA-binding accessory factor of the nuclear exosome targeting complex. (PubMed, Mol Cell)
On chromatin, MYCN is then replaced by the MNT(MXD6) repressor protein, inhibiting MYCN-dependent transcription. RNA-binding-deficient alleles show that RNA-binding limits MYCN's ability to activate cell growth-related genes but is required for MYCN's ability to promote progression through S phase and enhance the stress resilience of neuroblastoma cells.

Expanding the understanding of telomere biology disorder with reports from two families harboring variants in ZCCHC8 and TERC. (PubMed, Clin Genet)
Notably, there are no other reports which associate this variant to disease. The families expand our understanding of the clinical implications and genetic causes of TBD.

A new variant in the ZCCHC8 gene: diverse clinical phenotypes and expression in the lung. (PubMed, ERJ Open Res)
AT2 cells showed telomere shortening and increased DNA damage, which was comparable to patients with sporadic pulmonary fibrosis and those with pulmonary fibrosis carrying a telomere-related gene variant, respectively. The ZCCHC8 c.586G>A variant confirms the involvement of ZCCHC8 in pulmonary fibrosis and short-telomere syndromes and underlines the importance of including the ZCCHC8 gene in diagnostic gene panels for these diseases.

He then underwent reduced intensity conditioning using busulfan, fludarabine and anti-thymocyte globulin for a 4/6 matched cord stem cell transplant. Our patients' parents were asymptomatic or mildly affected, compared to our patients. Larger cohort studies are needed to determine the prevalence of this mode of inheritance.

Agminated presentation of fusion-driven melanocytic neoplasms. (PubMed, J Cutan Pathol)
We present accumulating evidence that fusion-driven melanocytic neoplasms can present with an agminated presentation. The differential diagnosis of an agminated presentation versus a locally recurrent or potentially locally metastatic tumor is critical, and accurate diagnosis has significant prognostic and therapeutic consequences for the patient. As with HRAS mutations, fusion-driven melanocytic tumors may have an agminated presentation.

Identification of tumor antigens and immune landscapes for bladder urothelial carcinoma mRNA vaccine. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
Finally, CALD1, TGFB3, and ANXA6 were identified as key genes of BLCA through WGCNA analysis, and their mRNA expression levels were measured using qRT-PCR. HP1BP3, OSBPL9, SSH3, ZCCHC8, FANCI, and EIF4A2 were identified as potential antigens for developing mRNA-based vaccines against BLCA, and patients in IC2 might benefit more from vaccination.
