Compensatory metabolic networks in pancreatic cancers upon perturbation of glutamine metabolism

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Glutaminase inhibition (GLSi) has promising activity against certain cancers. Here, the authors show that GLSi has no effect on multiple mouse models of pancreatic cancer and characterize the metabolic pathways activated in response to GLSi whose ...

MicroRNAs down-regulate homologous recombination in the G1 phase of cycling cells to maintain genomic stability

open access: yeseLife, 2014
Homologous recombination (HR)-mediated repair of DNA double-strand break (DSB)s is restricted to the post-replicative phases of the cell cycle. Initiation of HR in the G1 phase blocks non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) impairing DSB repair.

Oncogenic KRAS supports pancreatic cancer through regulation of nucleotide synthesis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells display varying degrees of reliance on oncogenic KRAS. Here the authors show that KRAS-resistant PDAC cells maintain nucleotides synthesis through a KRAS-independent upregulation of the non-oxidative pentose ...

NCOA4 maintains murine erythropoiesis via cell autonomous and non-autonomous mechanisms

open access: yesHaematologica, 2019
Ncoa4 mediates autophagic degradation of ferritin, the cytosolic iron storage complex, to maintain intracellular iron homeostasis. Recent evidence also supports a role for Ncoa4 in systemic iron homeostasis and erythropoiesis.

Beyond PARP1: The Potential of Other Members of the Poly (ADP-Ribose) Polymerase Family in DNA Repair and Cancer Therapeutics

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
The proteins within the Poly-ADP Ribose Polymerase (PARP) family encompass a diverse and integral set of cellular functions. PARP1 and PARP2 have been extensively studied for their roles in DNA repair and as targets for cancer therapeutics.

Genomic stability and tumorigenesis

open access: yesSeminars in Cancer Biology, 2005
Cancer research needs to explain the observed incidence of cancer. Many factors determine this process, including: the number of susceptible cells in the tissue of origin; the number of normal cell divisions through which susceptible cells pass in normal development and turnover; the number of cell divisions during tumorigenesis; the selective ...

PrimPol-dependent single-stranded gap formation mediates homologous recombination at bulky DNA adducts

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Bulky DNA adducts are important replication-blocking lesions. Here the authors reveal that homologous recombination at bulky adducts in mammalian cells involves post-replicative gap repair in a PrimPol dependent manner.

The Role of NCOA4-Mediated Ferritinophagy in Health and Disease

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2018
Nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4) is a selective cargo receptor that mediates the autophagic degradation of ferritin (“ferritinophagy„), the cytosolic iron storage complex.

PICH Supports Embryonic Hematopoiesis by Suppressing a cGAS‐STING‐Mediated Interferon Response

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2022
The Plk1‐interacting checkpoint helicase (PICH) protein localizes to ultrafine anaphase DNA bridges in mitosis along with a complex of DNA repair proteins. Previous studies show PICH deficiency‐induced embryonic lethality in mice.
