Approaches to repurposing reverse transcriptase antivirals in cancer
This review highlights the role of reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibition in cellular regulation associated with non‐terminal repeat retrotransposons and endogenous retroviruses. Based on their pleiotropic characteristics, RT inhibitors (RTIs) are discussed as potential anticancer agents.

Lymphocytes of BRCA1 and BRCA2 germ-line mutation carriers, with or without breast cancer, are not abnormally sensitive to the chromosome damaging effect of moderate folate deficiency [PDF]
Mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes may cause defective DNA repair and increase risk for breast cancer. Folate deficiency is associated with increased breast cancer risk and induces chromosome abnormalities.

The Interplay of Aging and Cancer: Mechanisms, Implications, and Therapeutic Strategies
Aging and cancer form a vicious cycle: aging alters the tumor microenvironment, promotes senescence, and reshapes cancer progression and therapy response. In return, cancer and its treatments accelerate aging through inflammation and genomic damage. Novel strategies‐senolytics, CAR‐T, and artificial intelligence‐offer exciting opportunities to disrupt ...

Abnormal spindle‐like microcephaly‐associated protein helps radiotherapy resistant cells to evade spindle checkpoint surveillance and complete cell division after irradiation through destruction of microtubule stability, with subsequent increases in chromosome mis‐segregation and deteriorating chromosomal stability during mitosis to promote ...

Multifaceted role of TREX2 in the skin defense against UV-induced skin carcinogenesis [PDF]
TREX2 is a 3'-DNA exonuclease specifically expressed in keratinocytes. Here, we investigated the relevance and mechanisms of TREX2 in ultraviolet (UV)-induced skin carcinogenesis. TREX2 expression was up-regulated by chronic UV exposure whereas it was de-

Microsporogenesis in Brachiaria brizantha (Poaceae) as a selection tool for breeding. [PDF]
The genus Brachiaria comprises more than 100 species and is the single most important genus of forage grass in the tropics. Brachiaria brizantha , widely used in Brazilian pastures for beef and dairy production, is native to tropical Africa. As a subsidy

Autophagy and the Cell Cycle: A Complex Landscape [PDF]
Autophagy is a self-degradation pathway, in which cytoplasmic material is sequestered in double-membrane vesicles and delivered to the lysosome for degradation. Under basal conditions, autophagy plays a homeostatic function.

Separase prevents genomic instability by controlling replication fork speed [PDF]
Proper chromosome segregation is crucial for preserving genomic integrity, and errors in this process cause chromosome mis-segregation, which may contribute to cancer development.

Cell-based screen for altered nuclear phenotypes reveals senescence progression in polyploid cells after Aurora kinase B inhibition. [PDF]
Cellular senescence is a widespread stress response and is widely considered to be an alternative cancer therapeutic goal. Unlike apoptosis, senescence is composed of a diverse set of subphenotypes, depending on which of its associated effector programs ...
