Aurora B and Aurora C pools at two chromosomal regions collaboratively maintain chromosome alignment and prevent aneuploidy at the second meiotic division in mammalian oocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Correct chromosome segregation is essential to preserve genetic integrity. The two protein kinases, Aurora B and its meiotic homolog Aurora C, regulate attachments between chromosomal kinetochores and microtubules, thereby contributing to the accuracy of

Protein turnover downstream of the Nipbl/CRL4 axis contributes to abnormal development in zebrafish embryos

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Mutations in cohesins cause cohesinopathies such as Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS) and Roberts Syndrome (RBS). Prior findings demonstrate that Esco2 (a cohesin activator) and Smc3 (a core cohesin subunit) regulate the CRL4 E3 ubiquitin ligase. SMC3 mutations, however, account for a small percentage of CdLS.

Bioinformatics analysis of immune‐programmed cell death‐related genes in nasopharyngeal carcinoma

open access: yesEye &ENT Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a prevalent malignant tumor of the head and neck, characterized by a complex pathogenesis. Most newly diagnosed NPC patients are locally advanced, and 20%–30% of advanced NPC patients have poor immunotherapy results.

Severity of effect considerations regarding the use of mutation as a toxicological endpoint for risk assessment: A report from the 8th International Workshop on Genotoxicity Testing (IWGT)

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.

Critical Evaluation of Methods for the Identification of Aneugens

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The genotoxic potential of chemicals must be evaluated in regulatory safety assessment settings, including but not limited to, the development of new pharmaceuticals, industrial chemicals, food and cosmetic ingredients, and agrochemicals. Initial assessment of the chromosome‐damaging potential of chemicals is often conducted in mammalian cells
