rDNA Copy Number Variation and Methylation During Normal and Premature Aging
In > 160 healthy individuals the absolute rDNA copy number (CN) in blood ranged from approximately 240 to 900. The number of active copies with a completely unmethylated promoter varied from 40 to 120, independent of absolute CN. Promoter methylation is a compensation mechanism for absolute CN variation. Aging was associated with a loss of unmethylated

We show that genetic and pharmacological inhibition of the metabotropic glutamate receptor, DmGluRA extends Drosophila lifespan, improves stress tolerance and alters early‐life locomotion. Several markers indicative of reduced ribosomal biogenesis, a hallmark of longevity, were also detected in these flies.

Large‐Scale Clustered Transcriptional Silencing Associated With Cellular Senescence
Senescence inducing stimuli leads to large‐cluster hypercondensed DNA globules. This architectural phenomenon is associated with geographically clustered transcriptional repression. Such large‐scale clustered silencing of chromosomal segments may drive deep senescence through two possible ways: (1) one or more critical combination of genes, for example

Abstract Background Testicular tumors are among the most frequently diagnosed cancers in young men. The consequences of this diagnosis are orchiectomies, severely restricting fertility. For these young patients, a comprehensive diagnostics would be desirable, achieving a refined diagnosis and improved therapeutic patient stratification.

Abstract Background WFS1 spectrum disorder, also known as Wolfram syndrome (WS) is an ultra‐rare (<1:500,000; ORPHA: 3463) monogenic (OMIM #222300) progressive neuroendocrine and neurodegenerative disorder, characterised by early‐onset insulin‐dependent diabetes, optic atrophy, central diabetes insipidus and sensi‐neuronal deafness.

In progressive MS, mixed active plaques and perivascular inflammation in the sub/juxtacortical white matter correlate with similar (albeit fainter) pathologies in the cortical parenchyma Abstract It remains elusive whether lesions and inflammation in the sub/juxtacortical white matter reflect cortical and/or meningeal pathologies.

Background and Purpose Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease with limited treatment options. ALS pathogenesis involves intricate processes within motor neurons, characterized by dysregulated Ca2+ influx and buffering in early ALS‐affected motor neurones. This study proposes the modulation of ryanodine receptors (

Our study reveals that hypoxia inhibitors ameliorate iodine uptake dysfunction in thyroid cancer by acting on the hsa_circ_0023990/miR‐448/DNMT1/NIS signaling pathway. ABSTRACT This research seeks to investigate how hypoxia inhibitors enhance iodine uptake in thyroid cancer cells. Clinical samples were gathered and assessed for hsa_circ_0023990, DNMT1,

HN1 Functions in Protein Synthesis Regulation via mTOR‐RPS6 Axis and Maintains Nucleolar Integrity
HN1 is required for nucleolar homeostasis which is the site of ribosome biogenesis and protein synthesis when its mRNA is knocked down by shRNA, it depletes in cytoplasm and the protein synthesis is downregulated in comparison to controls. Thus, the proliferating cells requiring vast number of nucleosomes, are arrested at S onset.

Advances in the Study of Pluripotent Stem Cells in Livestock
Livestock pluripotent stem cells include embryonic stem cells (ESCs) isolated from the inner cell mass of blastocysts and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from somatic cell reprogramming. They hold significant potential for applications in livestock breed improvement, rapid propagation, human disease modelling and human organ ...
