Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
18197853 Multiple simultaneous detection of MAGE-A [subtypes] more specific and sensitive than detection of single MAGE-A antigen for the diagnostic and prognostic evaluation of oral squamous cell carcinoma
17611652 Results suggest that although MAGE-A1 does not participate directly in the drug-resistant phenotype, the expression of MAGE-A1 could be a marker for the prediction of resistance to taxan-based chemotherapies in patients with gastric cancers.
17634428 These data show, for the first time, the involvement of methyl-CpG binding domain proteins in the regulation of the MAGE-A genes.
17208940 MAGE-A1 and NY-ESO-1 are associated with highly proliferating germ cells, whereas GAGE proteins have a more general function in germ cells unrelated to any specific developmental stage
15353125 a novel sequence-specific DNA-protein interaction at the -30 CpG dinucleotide upstream of the gene was found having a vital part to play in the DNA methylation mediated transcription silencing of the MAGE-A1 gene
12443884 The MAGE-A1 gene expression is not determined solely by methylation status of the promoter region in hematological malignancies.
16516880 Detection of aberrant methylation patterns of MAGEs CpG islands using Methylation-special PCR may be useful for diagnosis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
16497664 down-regulation of DNMT1 methyltransferase leads to activation and stable hypomethylation of MAGE-A1 in melanoma cells
14672620 Spontaneous in vivo priming of MAGE-specific T cell response and high frequency of MAGE1 and MAGE3 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma makes this antigen potential candidate for MAGE-specific immunotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma.
15316101 MAGE-A1 can function as a potent transcriptional repressor via interactions with Ski Interacting Protein and the deacetylase HDAC1.
