Microparticles as a source of extracellular DNA [PDF]

open access: yesImmunologic Research, 2010
Microparticles are small membrane-bound vesicles that display pro-inflammatory and pro-thrombotic activities important in the pathogenesis of a wide variety of diseases. These particles are released from activated and dying cells and incorporate nuclear and cytoplasmic molecules for extracellular export. Of these molecules, DNA is a central autoantigen

Extracellular DNA: A Bridge to Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Research, 2015
Abstract DNase I is a secreted enzyme whose function has been presumed to control “waste management” in the human system, by degrading DNA that leaks from dead and dying cells. Emerging studies have instead yielded evidence that DNase I plays a central role in newly defined dynamics of immune and autoimmune diseases, as well as cancer ...

Multiple Origins of Extracellular DNA Traps [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Extracellular DNA traps (ETs) are evolutionarily conserved antimicrobial mechanisms present in protozoa, plants, and animals. In this review, we compare their similarities in species of different taxa, and put forward the hypothesis that ETs have multiple origins.

Advantageous Antibody Microarray Fabrication Through DNA-Directed Immobilization: A Step Toward Use of Extracellular Vesicles in Diagnostics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
An optimized general protocol for DNA-protein ligation is provided and the conjugates are used to convert DNA arrays into antibody microarrays. Arrays obtained through DDI were used to capture and characterize extracellular vesicles (EVs), an emerging ...

Plant Perceptions of Extracellular DNA and RNA [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Plant, 2016
Plants and microbes interact in a myriad of ways in terrestrial ecosystems, which span from molecular to open-field scales. The basis of such communications among and within species is of intense interest among the plant–biotic interactions research community.

Mechanical Stability and Fibrinolytic Resistance of Clots Containing Fibrin, DNA, and Histones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Neutrophil extracellular traps are networks of DNA and associated proteins produced by nucleosome release from activated neutrophils in response to infection stimuli and have recently been identified as key mediators between innate immunity, inflammation,

Extracellular DNA: A Missing Link in the Pathogenesis of Ectopic Mineralization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2022
Although deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the genetic coding for the very essence of life, these macromolecules or components thereof are not necessarily lost after a cell dies.

Distinct RNA profiles in subpopulations of extracellular vesicles: apoptotic bodies, microvesicles and exosomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Introduction: In recent years, there has been an exponential increase in the number of studies aiming to understand the biology of exosomes, as well as other extracellular vesicles.

Extracellular DNA includes an important fraction of high-risk antibiotic resistance genes in treated wastewaters

open access: yes, 2023
Wastewater treatment plants are among the main hotspots for the release of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) into the environment. ARGs in treated wastewater can be found in the intracellular DNA (iDNA) and in the extracellular DNA (eDNA). In this study,
