Ataxia Telangiectasia is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by a mutated ATM gene. The most debilitating symptom of Ataxia Telangiectasia is the progressive neurodegeneration of the cerebellum, though the molecular mechanisms driving this ...

The methylation status of the O6-methylguanine methyltransferase (MGMT) gene promoter has been widely accepted as a prognostic biomarker for treatment with the alkylator, temozolomide (TMZ). In the absence of promoter methylation, the MGMT enzyme removes

Identification of an ataxia telangiectasia-mutated protein mediated surveillance system to regulate Bcl-2 overexpression [PDF]
Bcl-2 can both promote and attenuate tumorigenesis. Although the former function is relatively well characterized, the mechanism of the latter remains elusive. We report here that enforced Bcl-2 expression in MCF7 cells stabilizes p53, induces phosphorylation of p53 serine 15 (p53pSer15) and inhibits MCF7 cell growth.

Loss of IGF‐1R impairs DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin leading to defective end‐joining
IGF‐1R promotes radioresistance by facilitating DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin, enabling non‐homologous end‐joining (NHEJ) repair of double‐strand breaks. Inhibition or loss of IGF‐1R disrupts this recruitment to damage sites, driving compensatory reliance on microhomology‐mediated end‐joining (MMEJ) repair.

Cancer‐associated mutations in endometriosis reframe a benign disease through molecular oncology
This review aims to comprehensively analyse cancer‐associated somatic mutations (CAMs) present in endometriotic lesions, emphasizing their biological roles, spatial distribution and implications for translational applications in medicine. By contextualizing a benign state within a genomic framework, this analysis seeks to establish its value as a ...

Targeting the DNA damage response in cancer
DNA damage response (DDR) pathway is the coordinated cellular network dealing with the identification, signaling, and repair of DNA damage. It tightly regulates cell cycle progression and promotes DNA repair to minimize DNA damage to daughter cells.

Homeodomain Proteins Directly Regulate ATM Kinase Activity
Summary: Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) is a serine/threonine kinase that coordinates the response to DNA double-strand breaks and oxidative stress.

Acetaminophen (APAP) is the major cause of drug-induced liver injury, with limited treatment options. APAP overdose invokes excessive oxidative stress that triggers mitochondria-to-nucleus retrograde pathways, contributing to APAP-induced liver injury ...

Translating whole‐genome doubling into precision medicine in cancer
Whole‐genome doubling creates a WGD‐positive tumor state characterized by persistent chromosomal instability, karyotypic diversification, and cellular stress. These same biological pressures drive aggressive tumor evolution while exposing therapeutic vulnerabilities, providing a rationale for WGD‐informed precision medicine. Whole‐genome doubling (WGD)

Novel mutations and defective protein kinase C activation of T-lymphocytes in ataxia telangiectasia
Summary Three ataxia telangiectasia (AT) patients have been characterized immunologically and molecularly. Patient 1 presents two nondescribed splicing mutations which affect exons 15 and 21 of the ATM gene. The maternal defect consists of a G > A transition in the first nucleotide of the intron 21 donor splicing site which ...
