Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The LEXOVE prospective study evaluated plasma cell‐free extracellular vesicle (cfEV) dynamics using Bradford assay and dynamic light scattering in metastatic non‐small cell lung cancer patients undergoing first‐line treatments, correlating a ∆cfEV < 20% with improved median progression‐free survival in responders versus non‐responders.

Structural Probes in Quadruplex Nucleic Acid Structure Determination by NMR
Molecules, 2012 Traditionally, isotope-labelled DNA and RNA have been fundamental to nucleic acid structural studies by NMR. Four-stranded nucleic acid architectures studies increasingly benefit from a plethora of nucleotide conjugates for resonance assignments, the ...

The End Restraint Method for Mechanically Perturbing Nucleic Acids in silico [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Far from being a passive information store, the genome is a mechanically dynamic and diverse system in which torsion and tension fluctuate and combine to determine structure and help regulate gene expression. Much of this mechanical perturbation is due to molecular machines such as topoisomerases which must stretch and twist DNA as part of various ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The authors applied joint/mixed models that predict mortality of trifluridine/tipiracil‐treated metastatic colorectal cancer patients based on circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) trajectories. Patients at high risk of death could be spared aggressive therapy with the prospect of a higher quality of life in their remaining lifetime, whereas patients with a ...

Fluorescent Nanoparticles Synthesized from DNA, RNA, and Nucleotides
Nanomaterials, 2021 Ubiquitous on Earth, DNA and other nucleic acids are being increasingly considered as promising biomass resources. Due to their unique chemical structure, which is different from that of more common carbohydrate biomass polymers, materials based on ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Tumor microenvironment drives cancer formation and progression. We analyzed the role of human cancer‐associated adipocytes from patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) stratified as lean, overweight, or obese. RNA‐seq demonstrated that, among the most altered genes involved in the tumor–stroma crosstalk, are ADAM12 and CYP1B1, which were proven to be ...

White and green rust chimneys accumulate RNA in a ferruginous chemical garden [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Mechanisms of nucleic acid accumulation were likely critical to the emergence of life in the ferruginous oceans of the early Earth. How exactly prebiotic geological settings accumulated nucleic acids from dilute aqueous solutions, is poorly understood.

The roles and applications of extracellular vesicles in cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are minute versions of cells limited by a lipid bilayer containing cytoplasm from the cell that releases them, but without a nucleus and thus unable to self‐reproduce. EVs contain multiple molecules (proteins, lipids, glycans, and nucleic acids) they can induce complex responses in cells.
