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

Pair‐wise comparison of the CellSearch and FETCH enrichment technologies for circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from metastatic breast, prostate, and small cell lung cancer patients shows an increased capture of CTCs using FETCH enrichment. The clinical implementation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) as a predictive tool for therapy efficacy in the ...

Parasitic influences on the host genome using the molluscan model organism biomphalaria glabrata [PDF]
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.The freshwater snail Biomphalaria glabrata is an intermediate host for Schistosoma mansoni parasites, causing one of the most prevalent parasitic infections

Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles
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

L'exposition à des contaminants environnementaux est suspectée de perturber les fonctions endocrino-métaboliques des organismes et contribuer au développement de pathologies métaboliques comme le diabète et la stéatose hépatique non alcoolique.

Expression of the anti-apoptotic bfl-1/A1 gene is regulated by the Epstein Barr virus nuclear antigen 2(EBNA2) [PDF]
The ubiquitous and oncogenic human herpesvirus Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) establishes a latent infection and promotes the long-term survival of the infected host cell by targeting the molecular machinery that controls cell fate decisions (apoptosis ...

MITF maintains genome stability in nonmelanocyte lineages
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

The role of A-Type lamins and LAP2a in cellular ageing of human fibroblasts in vitro [PDF]
Mutations in LMNA gene have been linked to a number of age-related tissue-specific diseases and premature ageing syndromes termed laminopathies. The finding that A- type lamins affect longevity and maintenance of a number of somatic tissues makes them ...

The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in
