Chronic PARP-1 inhibition reduces carotid vessel remodeling and oxidative damage of the dorsal hippocampus in spontaneously hypertensive rats. [PDF]
Vascular remodeling during chronic hypertension may impair the supply of tissues with oxygen, glucose and other compounds, potentially unleashing deleterious effects.

Chromosomal instability syndromes are sensitive to poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors
Poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors have been shown to target cells with homologous recombination DNA repair defects. We report that poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors induces apoptosis in cells deficient in other key DNA repair components ...

Poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase and sirtuin 1 are both NAD(+)-dependent enzymes. In vitro oxidative stress activates poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase, decreases NAD(+) level, sirtuin 1 activity and finally leads to cell death.

PARP-1 dependent recruitment of the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-associated protein FUS/TLS to sites of oxidative DNA damage [PDF]
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is associated with progressive degeneration of motor neurons. Several of the genes associated with this disease encode proteins involved in RNA processing, including fused-in-sarcoma/translocated-in-sarcoma (FUS/TLS ...

Increased DNA damage and the propension to cancer development, depend on the modulation of the mechanisms to control and maintain genomic integrity. Poly(ADP-Ribose)Polymerase activation and automodification are early responses to genotoxic stress.

Modulation of energy homeostasis in maize and Arabidopsis to develop lines tolerant to drought, genotoxic and oxidative stresses [PDF]
Abiotic stresses cause crop losses worldwide that reduce the average yield by more than 50%. Due to the high energy consumed to enhance the respiration rates, the excessive reactive oxygen species release provokes cell death and, ultimately, whole plant ...

PARP-3 and APLF function together to accelerate nonhomologous end joining [PDF]
PARP-3 is a member of the ADP-ribosyl transferase superfamily of unknown function. We show that PARP-3 is stimulated by DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in vitro and functions in the same pathway as the poly (ADP-ribose)-binding protein APLF to accelerate

Chromatin composition is changed by poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation during chromatin immunoprecipitation. [PDF]
Chromatin-immunoprecipitation (ChIP) employs generally a mild formaldehyde cross-linking step, which is followed by isolation of specific protein-DNA complexes and subsequent PCR testing, to analyze DNA-protein interactions.

The potential role and application of PARP inhibitors in cancer treatment [PDF]
Background: Since many anti-cancer agents act by inflicting DNA damage on tumour cells, there is increasing interest in the use of inhibitors of DNA repair to increase the cytotoxicity of these agents.
