Ro5‐4864, a ligand of the mitochondrial translocator protein, protects against heart failure in mice via regulation of the p62‐Keap1‐Nrf2 axis

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 16, Page 6943-6958, 15 August 2026.
Abstract figure legend Graphical abstract of the proposed Ro5‐4864 mechanism of action via p62‐Keap1‐Nrf2 axis in heart failure. TSPO, the 18‐kDa mitochondrial translocator protein of the outer mitochondrial membrane, can directly interact with p62 (also known as SQSTM1), which is crucial for the degradation of damaged mitochondria by autophagy ...

Maternal nutritional status, C1 metabolism and offspring DNA methylation: a review of current evidence in human subjects. [PDF]

, 2011
: Evidence is growing for the long-term effects of environmental factors during early-life on later disease susceptibility. It is believed that epigenetic mechanisms (changes in gene function not mediated by DNA sequence alteration), particularly DNA ...

Elucidation of DNA Primase as a Drug Target in Leishmania donovani: Structure‐Guided Inhibitor Identification and Biochemical Validation

Chemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 108, Issue 1, July 2026.
Structure‐guided and biochemical analyses indicate that DNA primase of Leishmania donovani represents a potential therapeutic target, as repurposed compounds, particularly Pritelivir, demonstrate marked inhibitory effects accompanied by reduced parasite proliferation, replication, and altered cellular morphology in in vitro and cell‐based studies ...

A DNA vaccine construct incorporating intercellular trafficking and intracellular targeting motifs effectively primes and induces memory B and T cell responses in outbred animals [PDF]

, 2007
We developed a vaccine construct in which a BVP22 domain and an invariant-chain major histocompatibility complex class II-targeting motif capable of enhancing dendritic cell antigen uptake and presentation were fused to a sequence encoding a B- and T ...

Epigenetic Aging in Brain Tissue of the Self‐Fertilizing Vertebrate, Kryptolebias marmoratus

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Using the self‐fertilizing vertebrate Kryptolebias marmoratus, we developed an epigenetic clock from brain tissue that predicts chronological age with high accuracy, demonstrating that DNA methylation changes consistently with age even in the near absence of genetic variation. The 40 age‐associated CpG sites identified map to genes with conserved roles

Repair of oxidatively-induced clustered DNA lesions, after exposure of human cancer cells to ionizing radiation

, 2017
In the present thesis, the induction and repair of complex DNA lesions, double strand breaks (DSBs) of high complexity accompanied by oxidatively-induced base lesions in their close vicinity were studied after exposure to ionizing radiation (IR) of ...

The toxin–antitoxin complex Fic‐1–AntF functions as a deAMPylase that regulates the activity of DNA gyrase

mLife, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 301-311, June 2026.
Abstract Toxin–antitoxin (TA) systems found in diverse bacteria play important roles in their adaptation to changing environments. The toxin of the Fic‐1–AntF TA pair from Pseudomonas bijieensis strain 2P24 inhibits bacterial DNA replication by attacking the subunit B of DNA gyrase (GyrB) via AMPylation, while the antitoxin AntF blocks its enzymatic ...

Whole‐Genome Sequence Profiling of Listeria innocua From Different Sources: Implications for Public Health

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
The studied strains, LIN_NWU_CNKT and LIN5_NWU_CNKT, exhibit invasiveness, pathogenicity, and MDR profiles. The isolation of these strains from food products and water underscores their significant public health implications, particularly in the context of the “One Health” concept.

Apoptosis and DNA methylation [PDF]

, 2011
Epigenetic mechanisms assist in maintaining gene expression patterns and cellular properties in developing and adult tissues. The molecular pathology of disease states frequently includes perturbation of DNA and histone methylation patterns, which can ...
