The DNA-sensing AIM2 inflammasome controls radiation-induced cell death and tissue injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Acute exposure to ionizing radiation induces massive cell death and severe damage to tissues containing actively proliferating cells, including bone marrow and the gastrointestinal tract.

Boon and Bane of DNA Double-Strand Breaks [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), interrupting the genetic information, are elicited by various environmental and endogenous factors. They bear the risk of cell lethality and, if mis-repaired, of deleterious mutation. This negative impact is contrasted by several evolutionary achievements for DSB processing that help maintaining stable inheritance ...

Filling in the gaps in PARP inhibitor-induced synthetic lethality

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2021
Tumors with loss of breast cancer type 1 susceptibility protein (BRCA1) are homologous recombination (HR) deficient and hypersensitive to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi).

Structure and Function of a Mycobacterial NHEJ DNA Repair Polymerase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Non homologous end-joining (NHEJ)-mediated repair of DNA double-strand breaks in prokaryotes requires Ku and a specific multidomain DNA ligase (LigD).

DNA mismatch repair-induced double-strand breaks [PDF]

open access: yesDNA Repair, 2008
Escherichia coli dam mutants are sensitized to the cytotoxic action of base analogs, cisplatin and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), while their mismatch repair (MMR)-deficient derivatives are tolerant to these agents. We showed previously, using pulse field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), that MMR-mediated double-strand breaks (DSBs) are ...

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

Potential therapeutic targeting of BKCa channels in glioblastoma treatment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes current insights into the role of BKCa and mitoBKCa channels in glioblastoma biology, their potential classification as oncochannels, and the emerging pharmacological strategies targeting these channels, emphasizing the translational challenges in developing BKCa‐directed therapies for glioblastoma treatment.
