Nanomedicine‐Driven Modulation of Reductive Stress for Cancer Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This article introduces a novel therapeutic paradigm that deliberately induces reductive stress within tumor cells to exploit their unique biochemical vulnerabilities. It systematically reviews the underlying biological mechanisms, current detection and monitoring techniques, and emerging advanced nanotechnology platforms specifically designed to ...

Ancient and novel small RNA pathways compensate for the loss of piRNAs in multiple independent nematode lineages.

PLoS Biology, 2015
Small RNA pathways act at the front line of defence against transposable elements across the Eukaryota. In animals, Piwi interacting small RNAs (piRNAs) are a crucial arm of this defence.

Histone Demethylase UTX Suppresses Tumor Cell Proliferation by Regulating Stress Granules

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
These findings indicate that cytoplasmic UTX forms puncta and co‐localizes in stress granules (SGs) upon various stresses. UTX TPR‐domain‐dependently and demethylase‐activity‐independently destabilize SGs by binding G3BP1, the SG hub protein, to disrupt SG network, thus affects tumorigenesis.

A gene family derived from transposable elements during early angiosperm evolution has reproductive fitness benefits in Arabidopsis thaliana.

PLoS Genetics, 2012
The benefits of ever-growing numbers of sequenced eukaryotic genomes will not be fully realized until we learn to decipher vast stretches of noncoding DNA, largely composed of transposable elements. Transposable elements persist through self-replication,

Two key events associated with a transposable element burst occurred during rice domestication [PDF]

, 2018
Transposable elements shape genome evolution through periodic bursts of amplification. In this study we exploited knowledge of the components of the mPing/Ping/Pong TE family in four rice strains undergoing mPing bursts to track their copy numbers and ...

Attenuated Nuclear Tension Regulates Progerin‐Induced Mechanosensitive Nuclear Wrinkling and Chromatin Remodeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The premature aging‐related progerin leads to defective nuclear morphology and is associated with disrupted molecular coupling between the extranuclear cytoskeleton and lamin‐associated nuclear envelope. It is discovered that progerin expression reduces nuclear tension, forms nuclear wrinkling, and enhances chromatin dynamics, thereby regulating ...

Functional Investigation of a Novel PIWIL4 Mutation in Nonobstructive Azoospermia During the First Wave of Spermatogenesis

Biomolecules
PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that are almost exclusively expressed in germ cells to silence harmful transposons to maintain genome stability. PIWIL4 is guided by its associated piRNAs to transposable elements, where it recruits

Population scale mapping of transposable element diversity reveals links to gene regulation and epigenomic variation

eLife, 2016
Variation in the presence or absence of transposable elements (TEs) is a major source of genetic variation between individuals. Here, we identified 23,095 TE presence/absence variants between 216 Arabidopsis accessions. Most TE variants were rare, and we

Genomic Variation Underpins Genetic Divergence and Differing Salt Resilience in Sesbania bispinosa

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sesbania, a leguminous halophyte, thrives in saline soils. Comparative genomics reveals key genomic variations—particularly chromosomal inversions—are identified as contributors to population differentiation and salt resilience. These findings advance the understanding of genomic variation driving evolution and phenotypic differentiation and offer ...
