Visualization of complex DNA damage along accelerated ions tracks

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
The most deleterious DNA lesions induced by ionizing radiation are clustered DNA double-strand breaks (DSB). Clustered or complex DNA damage is a combination of a few simple lesions (single-strand breaks, base damage etc.) within one or two DNA helix ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Specific Cellular DNA Damage Response and Repair Induced by the Mixed Radiation Field During Boron Neutron Capture Therapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
The impact of a mixed neutron-gamma beam on the activation of DNA damage response (DDR) proteins and non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) is poorly understood.

Inflammation-induced DNA damage and damage-induced inflammation: a vicious cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Inflammation is the ultimate response to the constant challenges of the immune system by microbes, irritants or injury. The inflammatory cascade initiates with the recognition of microorganism-derived pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and ...

Which DNA Damage is Likely to Be Relevant in Hormetic Responses?

open access: yesDose-Response, 2008
Working under the assumption that hormesis is triggered by specific types of DNA damage, this report focuses on the types of damage which form the signature of ionizing radiation.

Metagenomic analysis of dental calculus in ancient Egyptian baboons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Dental calculus, or mineralized plaque, represents a record of ancient biomolecules and food residues. Recently, ancient metagenomics made it possible to unlock the wealth of microbial and dietary information of dental calculus to reconstruct oral ...

Formation of Clustered DNA Damage after High-LET Irradiation: A Review [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Radiation Research, 2008
Radiation can cause as well as cure cancer. The risk of developing radiation-induced cancer has traditionally been estimated from cancer incidence among survivors of the atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.(1)) These data provide the best estimate of human cancer risk over the dose range for low linear energy transfer (LET) radiations, such as X- or

Analysis of chromosome positions in the interphase nucleus of Chinese hamster cells by laser-UV-microirradiation experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
Unsynchronized cells of an essentially diploid strain of female Chinese hamster cells derived from lung tissue (CHL) were laser-UV-microirradiated (=257 nm) in the nucleus either at its central part or at its periphery.

Methods for Enhancing Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats/Cas9-Mediated Homology-Directed Repair Efficiency

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
The evolution of organisms has provided a variety of mechanisms to maintain the integrity of its genome, but as damage occurs, DNA damage repair pathways are necessary to resolve errors.

The Arabidopsis thaliana checkpoint kinase WEE1 protects against premature vascular differentiation during replication stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A sessile lifestyle forces plants to respond promptly to factors that affect their genomic integrity. Therefore, plants have developed checkpoint mechanisms to arrest cell cycle progression upon the occurrence of DNA stress, allowing the DNA to be ...

Glutathione depletion and carbon ion radiation potentiate clustered DNA lesions, cell death and prevent chromosomal changes in cancer cells progeny. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Poor local control and tumor escape are of major concern in head-and-neck cancers treated by conventional radiotherapy or hadrontherapy. Reduced glutathione (GSH) is suspected of playing an important role in mechanisms leading to radioresistance, and its
