Cancer Detection from Plasma Cell-Free DNA [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
Liquid biopsy of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has attracted much attention for its promise to realize pan-cancer detection in a non-invasive way. The whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) is widely used in cfDNA sequencing analysis and lays the foundation ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Immunoregulatory properties of cell free DNA

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences
Cell free DNA (cfDNA) is detectable at low concentrations in the plasma of healthy subjects and at high concentrations in disorders characterized by a high rate of necrotic events, such as tumors and vasculitis, leading to the release of necrotic DNA ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Circulating cell-free DNA levels correlate with postresuscitation survival rates in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients

open access: yes, 2014
Early prediction of prognosis is helpful in cardiac arrest patients. Plasma cell-free DNA, which increases rapidly after cell death, is a novel biomarker for the prognosis of critical ill patients.

Biochemical and clinical diagnostic aspects of circulating nucleic acids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We investigated the size distribution of fetal DNA using a combination of agorose gel electrophoresis, Southern blot and real time PCR assay. Our results showed plasma DNA presents apoptotic characteristics and the cell free fetal DNA is generally ...

Cell-Free DNA Fragmentomics in Liquid Biopsy

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2022
Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in bodily fluids has rapidly transformed the development of noninvasive prenatal testing, cancer liquid biopsy, and transplantation monitoring. Plasma cfDNA consists of a mixture of molecules originating from various bodily tissues.
