Light-Assisted Formation of Nucleosides and Nucleotides from Formamide in the Presence of Cerium Phosphate

Life
The abiotic formation of nucleotides from small, simple molecules is of large interest in the context of elucidating the origin of life scenario. In what follows, it is shown that nucleosides and nucleotides can be formed from formamide in a one-pot ...

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

The RNA‐Binding Protein PARN Remodeled 3′ UTR Structure Defines Poly(A)‐Loading Sites to Mediate Immunoglobulin Homeostasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Class Switch Recombination (CSR) is essential for generating high‐affinity antibody isotypes from IgM during adaptive humoral responses. Despite well‐established roles for various transcription factors, whether CSR is subject to dedicated post‐transcriptional control represents a significant gap in knowledge.

Metabolomic effects of CeO2, SiO2 and CuO metal oxide nanomaterials on HepG2 cells

Particle and Fibre Toxicology, 2017
Background To better assess potential hepatotoxicity of nanomaterials, human liver HepG2 cells were exposed for 3 days to five different CeO2 (either 30 or 100 μg/ml), 3 SiO2 based (30 μg/ml) or 1 CuO (3 μg/ml) nanomaterials with dry primary particle ...

Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In the face of a critical shortage of human donor kidneys for end‐stage renal disease patients, porcine kidney xenotransplantation has emerged as a viable solution. This field has navigated major hurdles, including immune rejection, physiological incompatibilities, potential biomechanical differences and the risk of cross‐species infection. To overcome

Activation of phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent protein kinase by cytidine 5′-triphosphate in rat skeletal muscle

, 1984
The effects of nucleotides on phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent protein kinase in rat skeletal muscle were examined. Various ribonucleotide triphosphates were tested and the protein kinase reaction was maximally activated by cytidine 5′-triphosphate followed

Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles With Customized Drug Ratio/Loading for Effective Treatment of Gemcitabine‐Resistant Pancreatic Tumors

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Redox responsive mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) were engineered to deliver gemcitabine (Gem) and cisplatin (cisPt) at defined ratios to overcome chemoresistance in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Optimized Gem MSNs and Gem cisPt MSNs enhanced cytotoxicity in murine and human Gem resistant models, with select formulations inducing ...
