Endogenous topoisomerase II-mediated DNA breaks drive thymic cancer predisposition linked to ATM deficiency
(Springer Nature, 2020)
The ATM kinase is a master regulator of the DNA damage response to double-strand breaks (DSBs) and a well-established tumour suppressor whose loss is the cause of the neurodegenerative and cancer-prone syndrome ...

Retinal pigment epithelium degeneration caused by aggregation of PRPF31 and the role of HSP70 family of proteins
(BMC (part of Springer Nature), 2020)
Mutations in pre-mRNA splicing factor PRPF31 can lead to retinitis pigmentosa (RP). Although the exact disease mechanism remains unknown, it has been hypothesized that haploinsufficiency might be involved in the pathophysiology ...

Dna-rna hybrids at dsbs interfere with repair by homologous recombination
(eLife Sciences Publications, 2021)
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most harmful DNA lesions and their repair is crucial for cell viability and genome integrity. The readout of DSB repair may depend on whether DSBs occur at transcribed versus ...

Manganese is a physiologically relevant TORC1 activator in yeast and mammals
(eLife Sciences Publications, 2022)
The essential biometal manganese (Mn) serves as a cofactor for several enzymes that are crucial for the prevention of human diseases. Whether intracellular Mn levels may be sensed and modulate intracellular signaling events ...

WASp modulates RPA function on single-stranded DNA in response to replication stress and DNA damage.
(Nature Research, 2022)
Perturbation in the replication-stress response (RSR) and DNA-damage response (DDR) causes genomic instability. Genomic instability occurs in Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS), a primary immunodeficiency disorder, yet the ...

VID22 counteracts G-quadruplex-induced genome instability
(Oxford University Press, 2021)
Genome instability is a condition characterized by the accumulation of genetic alterations and is a hallmark of cancer cells. To uncover new genes and cellular pathways affecting endogenous DNA damage and genome integrity, ...

Programming Skeletal Muscle Metabolic Flexibility in Offspring of Male Rats in Response to Maternal Consumption of Slow Digesting Carbohydrates during Pregnancy
(MDPI, 2020)
Skeletal muscle plays a relevant role in metabolic flexibility and fuel usage and the associated muscle metabolic inflexibility due to high-fat diets contributing to obesity and type 2 diabetes. Previous research from our ...

Homologous recombination and Mus81 promote replication completion in response to replication fork blockage
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020)
Impediments to DNA replication threaten genome stability. The homologous recombination (HR) pathway has been involved in the restart of blocked replication forks. Here, we used a method to increase yeast cell permeability ...

Titanium Surface Characteristics Induce the Specific Reprogramming of Toll-like Receptor Signaling in Macrophages
(MDPI, 2022)
Most of the research on titanium-based dental implants (Ti-discs) is focused on how they are able to stimulate the formation of new tissue and/or cytotoxic studies, with very scarce data on their effects on functional ...

Therapeutic Potential of Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Cancer Therapy
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020)
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are among the most frequently used cell type for regenerative medicine. A large number of studies have shown the beneficial effects of MSC-based therapies to treat different pathologies, ...
