Treatment with KCL‐286, a first‐in‐class retinoic acid receptor‐β (RARβ) agonist, ameliorates neuronal DNA damage and inflammation in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Repair of neuronal DNA damage in Alzheimer's disease by KCL‐286. (A) Amyloid‐β oligomers and plaques impair neuronal DNA repair pathways, leading to DNA double‐strand breaks and glial activation. (B) KCL‐286 activates RARβ/RXR signalling via retinoic acid response elements (RAREs), associated with increased BRCA1 expression, enhanced DNA repair and ...

NAD+ Metabolism as an Emerging Therapeutic Target for Cardiovascular Diseases Associated With Sudden Cardiac Death

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
In addition to its central role in mediating oxidation reduction in fuel metabolism and bioenergetics, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) has emerged as a vital co-substrate for a number of proteins involved in diverse cellular processes, including

Chronobiology of Cancer: How Aging Fuels Oncogenesis at the Molecular Level

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the key biological pathways linking aging with cancer development and progression. In the upper left, cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation, toxins, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes DNA damage and genomic instability, whereas age‐related decline in repair mechanisms, such as ATM/ATR, BER, and NER ...

PARG Mutation Uncovers Critical Structural Determinant for Poly(ADP-Ribose) Hydrolysis and Chromatin Regulation in Embryonic Stem Cells

Cells
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is a crucial posttranslational modification that governs gene expression, chromatin remodeling, and cellular homeostasis. This dynamic process is mediated by the opposing activities of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs), which ...

EDNRA Forms a Positive Feedback Loop with the Hippo/YAP Axis to Drive Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Progression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Endothelin receptor type A (EDNRA) and the Hippo/YAP pathway form a self‐reinforcing loop that sustains triple‐negative breast cancer. EDNRA activates YAP through Gαq/11–Rho/ROCK–LATS signaling, while YAP/TEAD4 reciprocally drives EDNRA transcription.

Klotho‐Derived Peptide 1 Protects against Acute Kidney Injury by Directly Targeting Mitochondrial ATAD3A

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers that KP1, a Klotho‐derived peptide, protects the kidney against acute kidney injury, a clinical syndrome with high morbidity and mortality. KP1 enters tubular epithelial cells via endocytosis, directly interacts with the mitochondrial ATAD3A/HIGD2A complex, thereby preventing cytochrome c release, and caspases activation, and ...

Gut Microbiota‐Isoallolithocholic Acid Crosstalk Promotes Calcium Oxalate Kidney Stone Formation via PARP1‐Mediated Parthanatos

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bile acids have been implicated in calcium oxalate (CaOx) nephrolithiasis. Here, we employ multi‐omics approaches to identify isoallolithocholic acid (isoalloLCA) as the key bile acid elevated in the feces, serum, kidney, and urine of CaOx rats, confirmed by spatial metabolomics.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 : domain C structure, poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation sites and physiological functions [PDF]

, 2008
textPoly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is an abundant nuclear protein that catalyzes the cleavage of NAD⁺ into nicotinamide and ADP-ribose moiety, the latter of which may be covalently attached as a branched polymer of poly(ADP-ribose) to PARP-1 ...
