piR‐RCC Suppresses Renal Cell Carcinoma Progression by Facilitating YBX‐1 Cytoplasm Localization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
PIWI‐interacting RNAs (piRNAs), a novel category of small non‐coding RNAs, have been implicated in the development of various diseases. This study explores the tumor‐suppressive mechanism of a downregulated piRNA (designated piR‐RCC) in renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and provides a delivery strategy targeting RCC tumor by constructing a cell membrane ...

Formation of Extrachromosomal Circular DNA from Long Terminal Repeats of Retrotransposons in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
Extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) derived from chromosomal Ty retrotransposons in yeast can be generated in multiple ways. Ty eccDNA can arise from the circularization of extrachromosomal linear DNA during the transpositional life cycle of ...

The characteristics of extrachromosomal circular DNA in patients with end-stage renal disease

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medical Research, 2023
Background End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is the final stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In addition to the structurally intact chromosome genomic DNA, there is a double-stranded circular DNA called extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA), which is ...

Conserved Phosphorylation of the Myosin1e TH1 Domain Impacts Membrane Association and Function in Yeast and Worms

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cells have an intrinsic ability to rapidly respond to environmental change to regulate cell cycle progression and membrane organisation, thereby affecting cell growth and division. The actin cytoskeleton is a highly dynamic complex of proteins that can rapidly reorganise to change the growth pattern of a cell.

Circular DNA elements of chromosomal origin are common in healthy human somatic tissue

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Somatic cells can accumulate structural variations such as deletions. Here, Møller et al. show that normal human cells generate large extrachromosomal circular DNAs (eccDNAs), most likely the products of excised DNA, that can be transcriptionally active ...

Deregulated enhancer‐promoter communication in cancer through altered nuclear architecture

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Enhancers are critical regulators of gene expression. Structural variations in cancer genomes can lead to enhancer hijacking, where oncogenes are activated by mistargeted enhancer activity. Novel enhancer‐promoter interactions may also arise through chromosomal rearrangements that create extrachromosomal DNA elements.

ApoE gene therapy: an overview and update [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Atherosclerosis remains the leading cause of death in industrialized societies. Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is an attractive candidate to treat hypercholesterolemia and coronary heart disease, as it is a circulating protein with pleiotropic ...

Extrachromosomal Circular DNA: Emerging Insights Into Cardiovascular Disease Mechanisms and Biomarker Potential

open access: yesiLABMED, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) has quite recently turned out to be a cardinal component in cardiovascular diseases (CVD), governing the gene expression and mechanisms of disease causation. Studies indicated an upregulation of eccDNA in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), which makes it strikingly potential as a sensitive and specific ...
