Mitochondrial stress in advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis associated with chronic hepatitis B, chronic hepatitis C, or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Adaptive mitochondrial mechanisms allow mitochondrial resilience and prevent the worsening of fibrosis, while deregulation of these mechanisms promotes the progression from no/minimal‐mild (F0‐F2) fibrosis to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis (F3‐F4). Abstract Background and Aims Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection causes oxidative stress (OS) and alters ...

Hypomethylation of LINE-1 repeat elements and global loss of DNA hydroxymethylation in vapers and smokers

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2020
The outbreak of vaping-related severe lung injuries and deaths and the epidemic of teen vaping in the U.S. underscore the urgent need for determining the biological consequences of electronic cigarette (e-cig) use.

Characterizing Repeats in Two Whole-Genome Amplification Methods in the Reniform Nematode Genome

open access: yesInternational Journal of Genomics, 2021
One of the major problems in the U.S. and global cotton production is the damage caused by the reniform nematode, Rotylenchulus reniformis. Amplification of DNA from single nematodes for further molecular analysis can be challenging sometimes.

LINE-1 hypomethylation during primary colon cancer progression. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: Methylation levels of genomic repeats such as long interspersed nucleotide elements (LINE-1) are representative of global methylation status and play an important role in maintenance of genomic stability.

Distinct retroelement classes define evolutionary breakpoints demarcating sites of evolutionary novelty

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2009
Background Large-scale genome rearrangements brought about by chromosome breaks underlie numerous inherited diseases, initiate or promote many cancers and are also associated with karyotype diversification during species evolution.

The L1Tc, Long Interspersed Nucleotide Element from Trypanosoma cruzi, Encodes a Protein with 3′-Phosphatase and 3′-Phosphodiesterase Enzymatic Activities [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1999
The presence of a long interspersed nucleotide element, named L1Tc, which is actively transcribed in the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, has been recently described. The open reading frame 1 of this element encodes the NL1Tc protein, which has apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease activity and is probably implicated in the first stage of the transposition of ...
