The Impact of Polyploid Giant Cancer Cells: The Root of Stress Resilience
Among the diverse characteristics of polyploid giant cancer cells (PGCCs) observed in various contexts, stress resilience is one of their key features, enabling survival and adaptation under harsh conditions. This review discusses the unique stress tolerance mechanisms of PGCCs and their implications for cancer progression, therapy resistance, and ...

Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is one of the fastest-growing cancers worldwide, lacking established causal factors or validated early diagnostics. Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs), comprising 8% of human genomes, have potential as PTC biomarkers due

The 5'-end transitional CpGs between the CpG islands and retroelements are hypomethylated in association with loss of heterozygosity in gastric cancers [PDF]
BACKGROUND: A loss of heterozygosity (LOH) represents a unilateral chromosomal loss that reduces the dose of highly repetitive Alu, L1, and LTR retroelements.

The resurrection plant Craterostigma plantagineum can tolerate up to 96% loss of its water content and recover from such extreme dehydration within several hours. This property is not shared by callus which has a strict requirement for exogenous abscissic acid (ABA) to survive severe water loss.

LINE-1 Retroelements Get ZAPped!
An acute viral infection begins a cascade of events in host organisms. Primed by an interferon response, host cells dramatically increase the expression of hundreds of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) that collectively attempt to block the virus at various stages of its intracellular cycle.

Contribution of Mobile Group II Introns to Sinorhizobium meliloti Genome Evolution
Mobile group II introns are ribozymes and retroelements that probably originate from bacteria. Sinorhizobium meliloti, the nitrogen-fixing endosymbiont of legumes of genus Medicago, harbors a large number of these retroelements.
