Emerging Therapeutic Strategies in Anti‐Aging Medicine: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesMedicine Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aging is orchestrated by interconnected hallmarks such as genomic instability, mitochondrial dysfunction, cellular senescence, and disrupted intercellular communication, which collectively drive chronic disease progression. Recent advances have expanded therapeutic opportunities to include pharmacological agents, gene and epigenome editing ...

RDA coupled with deep sequencing detects somatic SVA-retrotranspositions and mosaicism in the human brain

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Cells of the developing human brain are affected by the progressive acquisition of genetic and epigenetic alterations that have been reported to contribute to somatic mosaicism in the adult brain and are increasingly considered a possible cause of ...

Transcriptome Analyses of Tumor-Adjacent Somatic Tissues Reveal Genes Co-Expressed with Transposable Elements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Despite the long-held assumption that transposons are normally only expressed in the germ-line, recent evidence shows that transcripts of transposable element (TE) sequences are frequently found in the somatic cells.

A hot L1 retrotransposon evades somatic repression and initiates human colorectal cancer

open access: yesGenome Research, 2016
Although human LINE-1 (L1) elements are actively mobilized in many cancers, a role for somatic L1 retrotransposition in tumor initiation has not been conclusively demonstrated.

Cell Culture Substrate Variation Alters Extracellular Vesicle Biogenesis Without Affecting Non‐Coding Repeat RNA Profile

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Cell culture biomechanical conditions influence extracellular vesicles (EVs) production in patient‐derived pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cell lines. When grown in 3D conformation and in hydrogels with lower elasticity (0.5kPA), PDAC cells produce higher numbers of EVs, compared with cells grown in 2D on classic cell culture plastic.

Mobilization of LINE-1 retrotransposons is restricted by Tex19.1 in mouse embryonic stem cells

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Mobilization of retrotransposons to new genomic locations is a significant driver of mammalian genome evolution, but these mutagenic events can also cause genetic disorders.

Intragenic L1 Insertion: One Possibility of Brain Disorder

open access: yesLife, 2022
Long interspersed nuclear element 1 (LINE1, L1) is a retrotransposon comprising ~17% of the human genome. A subset of L1s maintains the potential to mobilize and alter the genomic landscape, consequently contributing to the change in genome integrity and

Ingrowth by photoreceptor axons induces transcription of a retrotransposon in the developing Drosophila brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The development of the lamina, the first optic ganglion of the fly visual system, depends on inductive cues from the innervating photoreceptor axons. lacZ expression from a P-element insertion, A72, occurs in the anlage of the lamina coincident with axon

Molecular mechanisms of sex determination in Lepidoptera: current status and perspectives

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The genetic basis of sex determination in Lepidoptera was discovered in 2014 in the silkworm Bombyx mori. In this model species, the W chromosome‐derived small piRNA called Fem piRNA downregulates the expression of a Z‐linked gene, Masculinizer (Masc), which leads to the default female‐specific splicing of the doublesex gene (dsxF) and thus to female ...

Computational methods reveal novel functionalities of PIWI-interacting RNAs in human papillomavirus-induced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the fastest growing cause of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) today, but its role in malignant transformation remains unclear.
