PCNA Ubiquitination Is Important, But Not Essential for Translesion DNA Synthesis in Mammalian Cells [PDF]
Translesion DNA synthesis (TLS) is a DNA damage tolerance mechanism in which specialized low-fidelity DNA polymerases bypass replication-blocking lesions, and it is usually associated with mutagenesis.

Analysis of 8-oxo-7, 8-dihydroGuanine formation and oxidation mediated by Fenton reaction induced DNA oxidative stress [PDF]
DNA undergoes an estimated 10,000 oxidative hits per day. Oxidative DNA damage caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) can result in multiple base modifications, which have been implicated in mutagenesis, disease and aging.

Cleavage of phosphorothioated DNA and methylated DNA by the type IV restriction endonuclease ScoMcrA. [PDF]
Many taxonomically diverse prokaryotes enzymatically modify their DNA by replacing a non-bridging oxygen with a sulfur atom at specific sequences. The biological implications of this DNA S-modification (phosphorothioation) were unknown.

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.

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.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.
