Virus satellites drive viral evolution and ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Virus satellites are widespread subcellular entities, present both in eukaryotic and in prokaryotic cells. Their modus vivendi involves parasitism of the life cycle of their inducing helper viruses, which assures their transmission to a new host. However,

Cis‐regulatory and long noncoding RNA alterations in breast cancer – current insights, biomarker utility, and the critical need for functional validation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The noncoding region of the genome plays a key role in regulating gene expression, and mutations within these regions are capable of altering it. Researchers have identified multiple functional noncoding mutations associated with increased cancer risk in the genome of breast cancer patients.

Lead exposure induces ferroptosis in ALS cell models by activating the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Lead is a potent toxicant that exerts deleterious effects on multiple organ systems within the human body. Existing evidence suggests that lead exposure may contribute to the progression of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Rotavirus Pathogenicity

open access: yesVirology, 1996
The pathogenicity of rotaviruses depends on multiple viral and host factors. In this review the evidence for the involvement of a number of viral genes in the ability to cause disease is presented. Different genes are of importance in different rotavirus-host systems: there is no single pathogenicity factor.

Correlation of the differential expression of PIK3R1 and its spliced variant, p55α, in pan‐cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PIK3R1 undergoes alternative splicing to generate the isoforms, p85α and p55α. By combining large patient datasets with laboratory experiments, we show that PIK3R1 spliced variants shape cancer behavior. While tumors lose the protective p85α isoform, p55α is overexpressed, changes linked to poorer survival and more pronounced in African American ...

Estimating the causal effects of exposure mixtures: a generalized propensity score method

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology
Background In environmental epidemiology and many other fields, estimating the causal effects of multiple concurrent exposures holds great promise for driving public health interventions and policy changes. Given the predominant reliance on observational

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...
