Purine metabolism promotes radioresistance and is a therapeutic target in glioblastoma
Profound intratumoral genomic heterogeneity has limited the ability of targeted therapies to overcome therapy resistance in glioblastoma. We have defined purine metabolism as a key mediator of DNA repair and radiation resistance in glioblastoma.

Disorders of purine biosynthesis metabolism.
Purines are essential molecules that are components of vital biomolecules, such as nucleic acids, coenzymes, signaling molecules, as well as energy transfer molecules. The de novo biosynthesis pathway starts from phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP) and eventually leads to the synthesis of inosine monophosphate (IMP) by means of 10 sequential steps ...

Purine metabolism regulates Vibrio splendidus persistence associated with protein aggresome formation and intracellular tetracycline efflux [PDF]
A small subpopulation of Vibrio splendidus AJ01 that was exposed to tetracycline at 10 times the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) still survived, named tetracycline-induced persister cells in our previous work.

Metformin improves HPRT1-targeted purine metabolism and repairs NR4A1-mediated autophagic flux by modulating FoxO1 nucleocytoplasmic shuttling to treat postmenopausal osteoporosis [PDF]
Osteoporosis is a major degenerative metabolic bone disease that threatens the life and health of postmenopausal women. Owing to limitations in detection methods and prevention strategy awareness, the purpose of osteoporosis treatment is more to delay ...

Resensitizing β‐Lactams by Reprogramming Purine Metabolism in Small Colony Variant for Osteomyelitis Treatment [PDF]
Small colony variant (SCV) is strongly linked to antibiotic resistance and the persistence of osteomyelitis. However, the intrinsic phenotypic instability of SCV has hindered a thorough investigation of its pathogenic mechanisms.

Purine metabolism-related genes and immunization in thyroid eye disease were validated using bioinformatics and machine learning [PDF]
Thyroid eye disease (TED), an autoimmune inflammatory disorder affecting the orbit, exhibits a range of clinical manifestations. While the disease presentation can vary, cases that adhere to a prototypical pattern typically commence with mild symptoms ...
