A Biobank for Long-term and Sustainable Research in the Field of Congenital Heart Disease in Germany

open access: yesGenomics, Proteomics & Bioinformatics, 2016
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most frequent birth defect (0.8%–1% of all live births). Due to the advance in prenatal and postnatal early diagnosis and treatment, more than 90% of these patients survive into adulthood today. However, several mid-

The defective parking space and defective Kreweras numbers

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics
A defective $(m,n)$-parking function with defect $d$ is a parking function with $m$ cars attempting to park on a street with $n$ parking spots in which exactly $d$ cars fail to park. We establish a way to compute the defect of a defective $(m,n)$-parking function and show that the defect of a parking function is invariant under the action of $\mathfrak{

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Loss of IGF‐1R impairs DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin leading to defective end‐joining

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
IGF‐1R promotes radioresistance by facilitating DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin, enabling non‐homologous end‐joining (NHEJ) repair of double‐strand breaks. Inhibition or loss of IGF‐1R disrupts this recruitment to damage sites, driving compensatory reliance on microhomology‐mediated end‐joining (MMEJ) repair.

Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have

Novel Compound Heterozygous Variants in the TCTN2 Gene Causing Meckel–Gruber Syndrome 8 in a Non‐Consanguineous Chinese Family

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine
Introduction Meckel‐Gruber syndrome (MKS, OMIM 24,900), also known as Meckel syndrome, is a rare and severe autosomal recessive disorder. The syndrome is typically characterized by a triad of occipital encephalocele, bilateral renal cystic dysplasia, and

Huaier inhibits autophagy and promotes apoptosis in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia by down-regulating SIRT1

open access: yesHeliyon
Objective: Due to the high drug resistance and relapse rate of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), the prognosis is usually poor. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find safer and more effective therapeutic drugs. Huaier and its preparations,

MITF maintains genome stability in nonmelanocyte lineages

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
MITF is essential for melanocyte survival and acts as an oncogene in 10%–20% of melanomas. We show that MITF depletion causes genome instability in nonmelanocytic cells, leading to LATS2‐mediated P53 activation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. This study highlights the role of MITF as a genome maintenance factor beyond the melanocyte lineage. Created
