Correlates of Peripheral Blood Mitochondrial DNA Content in a General Population

American Journal of Epidemiology, 2015
Accumulation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations leads to alterations of mitochondrial biogenesis and function that might produce a decrease in mtDNA content within cells.

Neotissue Biochemical Content Normalized to DNA.

, 2013
Biochemical content of neotissue was quantified after 4 wks culture. Values are normalized to DNA content. TFP supplementation significantly increased collagen/DNA and GAG/DNA compared with bFGF supplementation and FBS containing expansion medium ...

DNA content variation and its significance in the evolution of the genus Micrasterias (Desmidiales, Streptophyta). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
It is now clear that whole genome duplications have occurred in all eukaryotic evolutionary lineages, and that the vast majority of flowering plants have experienced polyploidisation in their evolutionary history.

Effect of the GC content of DNA on the distribution of UVB-induced bipyrimidine photoproducts

, 2008
Solar UV radiation is a major mutagen that damages DNA through the formation of dimeric photoproducts between adjacent thymine and cytosine bases. A major effect of the GC content of the genome is thus anticipated, in particular in prokaryotes where this

Comparative Drug Response Profiling in Neuroblastoma Cell Lines and Patient‐Derived Tumor Organoids

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High‐risk neuroblastoma remains a leading cause of pediatric cancer mortality, and improved preclinical models are needed to guide therapeutic developments. We screened seven high‐risk neuroblastoma cell lines and three patient‐derived tumor organoids with 528 compounds alongside bone marrow controls, and compared them with external datasets ...

Patterns of selective constraints in noncoding DNA of rice [PDF]

, 2007
Background Several studies have investigated the relationships between selective constraints in introns and their length, GC content and location within genes. To date, however, no such investigation has been done in plants.

Impact of Radiation Therapy on Physical and Psychosocial Health of Adolescents and Young Adults: A Joint Report From the Children's Oncology Group AYA and Radiation Oncology Committees

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.
