Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have

Hydrogen photoionization in a magnetized medium: The rigid-wavefunction approach revisited

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Realistic modeling of stellar spectra requires accurate radiative opacity coefficients. Owing to the fragmentary nature of existing data from rigorous quantum-mechanical calculations, photoionization coefficients based on the rigid-wavefunction ...

MITF maintains genome stability in nonmelanocyte lineages

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
MITF is essential for melanocyte survival and acts as an oncogene in 10%–20% of melanomas. We show that MITF depletion causes genome instability in nonmelanocytic cells, leading to LATS2‐mediated P53 activation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. This study highlights the role of MITF as a genome maintenance factor beyond the melanocyte lineage. Created

XRISM reveals a variable, multi-phase outflow-inflow structure during the 2024 X-ray obscured outburst of black hole transient V4641 Sgr

Astronomy & Astrophysics
We report the results of a simultaneous X-ray and optical spectroscopy campaign on the Galactic black hole X-ray binary (BH XRB) V4641 Sgr, carried out with XRISM and the Seimei telescope during a low-luminosity phase toward the end of its 2024 outburst.

A novel quinazolinone insulin receptor inhibitor and its synergy with an EGFR inhibitor in glucose‐driven glioblastoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in

Dissociative ionization cross-sections and the rate coefficients of H2S, OCS, LiH, and SiC

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Electron-molecule and positron-molecule interactions play a major role in the interstellar medium. Although several inelastic channels have been studied in the literature, dissociative ionization studies of molecules are scarce. Aims.

In vitro and in silico modelling of ROS1‐positive non‐small cell lung cancer reveals fusion‐dependent tyrosine kinase inhibitor responses

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Drug resistance limits treatment success in a subset of lung cancers driven by ROS1 gene alterations. Using patient‐derived cells and computer simulations, we studied three key mutations and how they affect five targeted drugs. The mutations reduced drug effectiveness in different ways by altering protein structure and behavior.

Radiative accelerations of nickel from new monochromatic opacities

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Radiative accelerations express the transfer of momentum from the radiation field to the various chemical species of the stellar medium. They are evaluated from the monochromatic cross-sections of each element given the local thermodynamical ...

Preoperative circulating tumor cells integrated with imaging analysis for prognostic evaluation in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Detecting circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood before surgery may help predict outcomes in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Here, we show when combined with tumor size and lymph node involvement from routine imaging, CTC status identifies high‐risk patients with poorer survival—offering a simple, minimally invasive tool ...

Epigenetic silencing of the liver‐specific lncRNA LUNAR promotes liver cancer progression via NOTCH activation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LUNAR is a liver‐specific long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that is highly expressed in normal liver but becomes epigenetically silenced in hepatocellular carcinoma through promoter hypermethylation. Loss of LUNAR is associated with NOTCH activation, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and metastasis, whereas restoring LUNAR restrains metastatic progression ...
