Effect of Human MTHFR Gene Polymorphisms in Morbidly Obese Population on Elevate Risk of Type 2 Diabetes

Nano Biomedicine and Engineering, 2018
In this paper, based on the association of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) with type 2 diabetes (T2D), we evaluated the association of polymorphism with morbidly obesity on risk type 2 diabetes.

Structural Insights into APOBEC3-Mediated Lentiviral Restriction

Viruses, 2020
Mammals have developed clever adaptive and innate immune defense mechanisms to protect against invading bacterial and viral pathogens. Human innate immunity is continuously evolving to expand the repertoire of restriction factors and one such family of ...

Resistance of Cyclocytidine to Cytidine Deaminase

Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 1973
Deamination of cytidine derivatives especially of cyclocytidine by mouse kidney cytidine deaminase was examined. Cyclocytidine was not deaminated at either pH6.5 or pH7.3 by the enzyme. Furthermore, cyclocytidine did not inhibit the deamination of aracytidine and ([I]/[S])0.5 value for cyclocytidine was over 100.

Pharmacogenomic profiling of the efficacy of gemcitabine monotherapy in metastatic pancreatic cancer: Subgroup analysis of the GENESECT study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim In the GENESECT study, no significant gemcitabine (GEM) metabolism‐related germline genetic polymorphisms (GPs) were identified because approximately 70% of patients received combination therapy with nab‐paclitaxel, which has metabolic pathways different from GEM.

A Modular Nucleoside Kinase Cascade for the Synthesis of Ribonucleoside Triphosphates

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Damm et al. report standardized enzymatic cascades for production of all canonical nucleoside triphosphates from the corresponding nucleosides, using kinase‐catalyzed phosphorylation from acetyl phosphate. Reactions afforded ∼ 100 mM product in near‐quantitative conversion.

Early relapse on adjuvant gemcitabine associated with an exceptional response to 2nd line capecitabine chemotherapy in a patient with pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma with strong intra-tumoural expression of cytidine deaminase: a case report

BMC Cancer, 2020
Background Pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma has a poor prognosis, with limited prospective trial data to guide optimal treatment. The potential impact of drug metabolism on the treatment response of patients with pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma is ...

Dynamic Control of Nucleic Acids Self‐Assembly and Expression Using Photoswitches

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
We review here the recent progress made in the design of molecular photoswitches, and highlight their implementation for the dynamic control over nucleic acids self‐assembly and expression. ABSTRACT Synthetic nucleic acids have become readily available and now constitute versatile building blocks in materials science—where they can be used to engineer ...

Synthesis of DNA Building Blocks With Aminonaphthalimides and Cyanovinylenes as Uncharged Fluorophores: Fluorescent Readout From Turn‐On to Red‐Shift

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
DNA architectures with aminonaphthalimides and cyanovinylenes as base surrogates form interstrand and intrastrand dimers showed that can be used as nucleic acid‐sensitive probes by their fluorescence turn‐on and red‐shift as readouts. The fluorescence turn‐on was tested by probing N6‐methyl‐2’‐deoxyadenosine (m6A) in DNA.
