BRCA2-DSS1 interaction is dispensable for RAD51 recruitment at replication-induced and meiotic DNA double strand breaks

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Mishra et al. have generated mice with a single amino acid substitution in BRCA2, which disrupts its interaction with DSS1 resulting in a severe HR defect. They show the interaction to be dispensable for HR at replication induced and meiotic DSBs.

A computational model for classification of BRCA2 variants using mouse embryonic stem cell-based functional assays

open access: yesnpj Genomic Medicine, 2020
Sequencing-based genetic tests to identify individuals at increased risk of hereditary breast and ovarian cancers have resulted in the identification of more than 40,000 sequence variants of BRCA1 and BRCA2. A majority of these variants are considered to

Three-Dimensional X-ray Imaging of β-Galactosidase Reporter Activity by Micro-CT: Implication for Quantitative Analysis of Gene Expression

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2021
Acquisition of detailed anatomical and molecular knowledge from intact biological samples while preserving their native three-dimensional structure is still a challenging issue for imaging studies aiming to unravel a system’s functions. Three-dimensional

BRE/BRCC45 regulates CDC25A stability by recruiting USP7 in response to DNA damage

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Loss of BRCA2 leads to cancer formation. Here, the authors use an insertional mutagenesis approach and identify a multiprotein complex consisting of BRE, USP7 and CDC25A that can support the survival of BRCA2-deficient cells.

Insulin‐like growth factor‐1 stimulates regulatory T cells and suppresses autoimmune disease

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2014
The recent precipitous rise in autoimmune diseases is placing an increasing clinical and economic burden on health systems worldwide. Current therapies are only moderately efficacious, often coupled with adverse side effects.

Lsh/HELLS regulates self-renewal/proliferation of neural stem/progenitor cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Epigenetic mechanisms are known to exert control over gene expression and determine cell fate. Genetic mutations in epigenetic regulators are responsible for several neurologic disorders.

TrkA-cholinergic signaling modulates fear encoding and extinction learning in PTSD-like behavior

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry, 2022
Recent studies have suggested that the use of cognitive enhancers as adjuncts to exposure-based therapy in individuals suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) may be beneficial. Brain cholinergic signaling through basal forebrain projections
