Functional and Structural Characterization of Chimeras of a Bacterial Genotoxin and Human Type I DNAse

open access: yes, 2009
Chimeras composed of the cdtB gene of a novel bacterial genotoxin and the human type I DNAse I gene were constructed and their products characterized relative to the biochemical and enzymatic properties of the native proteins. The product of a cdtB/DNAse

Rho GTPases: Novel Players in the Regulation of the DNA Damage Response?

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2015
The Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1) belongs to the family of Ras-homologous small GTPases. It is well characterized as a membrane-bound signal transducing molecule that is involved in the regulation of cell motility and adhesion as well

Rising Incidence and Mortality of Colorectal Cancer Among Younger Adults: A Population‐Based Study in Taiwan, 1994–2018

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Colorectal cancer incidence and mortality have increased in the Asia‐Pacific region over the past three decades. This population‐based study in Taiwan suggests a shift of the colorectal cancer burden towards the younger generations. An age–period–cohort model revealed higher annual increases in incidence (3.58%) and mortality (1.0%) rates among ...

From DNA Damage to Cancer Progression: Potential Effects of Cytolethal Distending Toxin

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Cytolethal distending toxin (CDT), one of the most important genotoxins, is produced by several gram-negative bacteria and is involved in bacterial pathogenesis.

Organ‐Specific Human Microbiomes and Dysbiosis: Mechanistic Links to Disease and Emerging Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Schematic overview of the human microbiome and major microbiota‐derived metabolites across body sites, highlighting the gut–brain, gut–heart, and gut–kidney axes in host physiology and disease. ABSTRACT Background The human microbiome is a dynamic and diverse community of microorganisms that affects susceptibility to illness and promotes wellness ...

Genotoxins and the initiation of sporadic breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yesMutagenesis, 2001
Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed female malignancy world-wide. The aetiology of the majority of cases remains obscure and the only genotoxin as yet known to initiate breast cancer is ionizing radiation. High penetrance susceptibility genes probably account for no more than 5-10% of cases.

A direct requirement for Xmus101 in ATR-mediated phosphorylation of Claspin bound Chk1 during checkpoint signaling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
TopBP1-like proteins, which include Xenopus laevis Xmus101, are required for DNA replication and have been linked to replication checkpoint control. A direct role for TopBP1/Mus101 in checkpoint control has been difficult to prove, however, because of ...

Protocol for HeLa Cells Infection with Escherichia coli Strains Producing Colibactin and Quantification of the Induced DNA-damage

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
Strains of Escherichia coli bearing the pks genomic island synthesize the genotoxin colibactin. Exposure of eukaryotic cells to E. coli producing colibactin induces DNA damages, ultimately leading to cell cycle arrest, senescence and death.

Dasatinib and quercetin prevent alveolar bone loss in aged mice

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Recent findings have associated alveolar bone loss (ABL) with the presence of senescent cells. Aging and the accumulation of senescent cells are associated with a pro‐inflammatory environment which may exacerbate tissue damage.
