Establishment and biological characterization of radioresistant colorectal cancer cell lines
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Under ionizing radiation exposure, radiation‐sensitive cancer cells exhibit oxidative stress and DNA damage, while radiation‐resistant cancer cells exhibit strong antioxidant properties and DNA damage repair. Radiotherapy resistance is a major cause of recurrence and metastasis in colorectal cancer (CRC).

Possible role of human ribonuclease dicer in the regulation of R loops
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.R loops play an important role in regulating key cellular processes such as replication, transcription, centromere stabilization, or control of telomere length. However, the unscheduled accumulation of R loops can cause many diseases, including cancer, and neurodegenerative or inflammatory disorders. Interestingly, accumulating data indicate a possible

Emergence of clonal selection and affinity maturation in an ab initio microscopic model of immunity [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 Mechanisms of immunity, and of the host-pathogen interactions in general are among the most fundamental problems of medicine, ecology, and evolution studies. Here, we present a microscopic, protein-level, sequence-based model of immune system, with explicitly defined interactions between host and pathogen proteins..

Protein folding using contact maps [PDF]
, 1999 We present the development of the idea to use dynamics in the space of contact maps as a computational approach to the protein folding problem. We first introduce two important technical ingredients, the reconstruction of a three dimensional conformation from a contact map and the Monte Carlo dynamics in contact map space.

De novo inference of diversity genes and analysis of non-canonical V(DD)J recombination in immunoglobulins [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 The V(D)J recombination forms the immunoglobulin genes by joining the variable (V), diversity (D), and joining (J) germline genes. Since variations in germline genes have been linked to various diseases, personalized immunogenomics aims at finding alleles of germline genes across various patients.

Immunity to Plasmodium knowlesi H strain malaria in olive baboons [PDF]
Int. J. Integ. Biol. Volume 10, Issue No. 3: 147 -- 152 (2010), 2012 Malaria disease is a major global health and economic development threat. It results in approximately 2.7 million deaths annually. There is currently no vaccine that has been licensed for use against malaria. Studies in animal models, especially non-human primates can lead to the revelation of possible immunological mechanisms that can lead to ...

Low force unfolding of a single-domain protein by parallel pathways [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Deviations from linearity in the dependence of the logarithm of protein unfolding rates, $\log k_u(f)$, as a function of mechanical force, $f$, measurable in single molecule experiments, can arise for many reasons. In particular, upward curvature in $\log k_u(f)$ as a function of $f$ implies that the underlying energy landscape must be multidimensional
