Endothelial Cell-specific Loss of Breast Cancer Susceptibility Gene 2 Exacerbates Atherosclerosis [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The BReast CAncer type 2 susceptibility protein (BRCA2) responds to DNA damage by participating in homology-directed repair. BRCA2 deficiency culminates in defective DNA damage repair (DDR) that when prolonged leads to the accumulation of DNA damage causing cancer or apoptosis.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1990 In this report, we have identified two apolipoproteins (apo), apoD and apoA-IV, that, together with the previously identified apoA-I and apoE, accumulate in the regenerating peripheral nerve. These four apolipoproteins were identified in regenerating rat sciatic nerves by their molecular weights, their isoelectric points, and their recognition by ...

On the Aggregation of Apolipoprotein A-I
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 In vivo, apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) is commonly found together with lipids in so-called lipoprotein particles. The protein has also been associated with several diseases—such as atherosclerosis and amyloidosis—where insoluble aggregates containing ApoA-I are deposited in various organs or arteries.

Apolipoprotein[a] is not associated with apolipoprotein B in human liver
Journal of Lipid Research, 1994 The aim of this research was to determine whether apolipoprotein[a] (apo[a]) is linked to apolipoprotein B (apoB) in human liver. Four ELISAs were developed: 1) a competition assay that measures apoB; 2) a competition assay that measures apo[a]; 3) a capture assay based on capture of apo[a] by a polyclonal antibody and detection of co-immobilized apoB ...

Smoking and apolipoprotein levels: A meta-analysis of published data
Toxicology Reports, 2022 Background: Apolipoproteins are major components of lipoproteins such as high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and very-low-density lipoprotein and are considered nontraditional markers in the risk assessment for cardiovascular disease.

The role of APOBEC3-induced mutations in the differential evolution of monkeypox virus [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Recent studies show that newly sampled monkeypox virus (MPXV) genomes exhibit mutations consistent with Apolipoprotein B mRNA Editing Catalytic Polypeptide-like3 (APOBEC3)-mediated editing, compared to MPXV genomes collected earlier. It is unclear whether these single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) result from APOBEC3-induced editing or are a ...

Chromosomal breaks at the origin of small tandem DNA duplications
BioEssays, Volume 45, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Small tandem DNA duplications form a specific mutational signature frequently found in human disease alleles and cancer genes. Here we hypothesize that these duplications mainly arise at chromosomal DNA breaks that result from two closely located single‐stranded nicks, through error‐prone repair by the non‐homologous end‐joining pathway. Abstract Small

Protein corona critically affects the bio-behaviors of SARS-CoV-2 [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has become a worldwide public health crisis. When the SARS-CoV-2 enters the biological fluids in the human body, different types of biomolecules (in particular proteins) may adsorb on its surface and alter its infection ability.

Evidence of emerging BBB changes in mid‐age apolipoprotein E epsilon‐4 carriers
Brain and Behavior, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 This study demonstrated a tendency towards BBB permeability in APOEε4 participants emerging from mid‐age, with quantitative differences observable on a number of the measures. Results from this study may help identify at‐risk populations at an early stage which will be crucial in facilitating the development of early interventions to change the ...

Unresolved excess accumulation of myelin-derived cholesterol contributes to scar formation after spinal cord injury [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Background: Spinal cord injury triggers complex pathological cascades, resulting in destructive tissue damage and incomplete tissue repair. Scar formation is generally considered as a barrier for regeneration in central nervous system (CNS), while the intrinsic mechanism of scar-forming after spinal cord injury has not been completed deciphered ...
