SIRT2 mediated downregulation of FOXM1 in response to TGFβ through the RAF-MEK-ERK signaling pathway in colon cancer [PDF]
The transcription factor forkhead box M1 (FOXM1) is frequently upregulated in many solid tumors, including those in the colon. As a master regulator, the sirtuin (SIRT) protein family is comprised of seven nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD ...

Extraction and Physicochemical Characterization of Chitosan from Litopenaeus vannamei Shells [PDF]
The chitosan was extracted from a whiteleg shrimp shell (Litopenaeus vannamei (by the deacetylation of chitin, which is carried out using 45% NaOH at 110 ºC for 6 h.

New Insight in HDACs: Potential Therapeutic Targets for the Treatment of Atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis (AS) features include progressive hardening and reduced elasticity of arteries. AS is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. An increasing amount of evidence showed that epigenetic modifications on genes serve are a main cause of ...

Bacterial Sirtuins Overview: An Open Niche to Explore
Sirtuins are deacetylase enzymes widely distributed in all domains of life. Although for decades they have been related only to histones deacetylation in eukaryotic organisms, today they are considered global regulators in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Hydration mechanism of heterogeneous alkaline deacetylation of chitin [PDF]
In the work the hypothesis has been proposed explaining the features of the kinetics of chitin/chitosan alkali deacetylation reaction in highly concentrated solutions of sodium hydroxide, which almost completely stops after 30–60 min after the start of ...

Optimisation of conditions for deacetylation of chitin-containing raw materials
The paper describes the differences between chitosan and chitin, and reviews works by foreign scientists on obtaining chitosan from various raw materials. Methods of modifying chitosan and obtaining combined sorbents have been analysed.

The DNA damage response (DDR) is a highly orchestrated process but how double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs) are initially recognized is unclear. Here, we show that polymerized SIRT6 deacetylase recognizes DSBs and potentiates the DDR in human and mouse cells.

Histone epigenetic modifications and their relationship with cancer: a comparative medicine view [PDF]
: Epigenetic modifications have become highly important in the study of cancer pathogenesis due to research showing that changes in the expression of DNA-associated proteins can affect gene expression but may be reversible after treatment.

Chemical and Mechanical Differences between Historic and Modern Scots Pine Wood
Timber is one of the most common historic building materials, but relatively little is known about how it ages in situ. Here we investigate historic and modern Scots pine to determine any chemical or mechanical differences between them. Fourier-transform
