Pathogenic variants in human DNA damage repair genes mostly arose after the latest human out-of-Africa migration

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics
IntroductionThe DNA damage repair (DDR) system in human genome is pivotal in maintaining genomic integrity. Pathogenic variation (PV) in DDR genes impairs their function, leading to genome instability and increased susceptibility to diseases, especially ...

The Adenovirus E4orf4 Protein Provides a Novel Mechanism for Inhibition of the DNA Damage Response. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2016
The DNA damage response (DDR) is a conglomerate of pathways designed to detect DNA damage and signal its presence to cell cycle checkpoints and to the repair machinery, allowing the cell to pause and mend the damage, or if the damage is too severe, to ...

Acts that Kill and Acts that Do Not — A Philosophical Analysis of the Dead Donor Rule

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Analytic Philosophy, 2021
In response to recent debates on the need to abandon the Dead Donor Rule (DDR) to facilitate vital-organ transplantation, I claim that, through a detailed philosophical analysis of the Uniform Determination of Death Act (UDDA) and the DDR, some acts that

Autophagy in DNA Damage Response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
DNA damage response (DDR) involves DNA repair, cell cycle regulation and apoptosis, but autophagy is also suggested to play a role in DDR. Autophagy can be activated in response to DNA-damaging agents, but the exact mechanism underlying this activation ...

Alterations of DNA damage response pathway: Biomarker and therapeutic strategy for cancer immunotherapy

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2021
Genomic instability remains an enabling feature of cancer and promotes malignant transformation. Alterations of DNA damage response (DDR) pathways allow genomic instability, generate neoantigens, upregulate the expression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-

Axitinib induces DNA damage response leading to senescence, mitotic catastrophe, and increased NK cell recognition in human renal carcinoma cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) including axitinib have been introduced in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) because of their anti-angiogenic properties.

Inside the hypoxic tumour: reprogramming of the DDR and radioresistance [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death Discovery, 2020
AbstractThe hypoxic tumour is a chaotic landscape of struggle and adaption. Against the adversity of oxygen starvation, hypoxic cancer cells initiate a reprogramming of transcriptional activities, allowing for survival, metastasis and treatment failure. This makes hypoxia a crucial feature of aggressive tumours.

Cell Death Response to DNA Damage. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The cell death response to DNA damage is discussed in this Perspectives piece with cancer as the backdrop because DNA damaging agents (DDA) are widely used to treat cancer.

Risks from low dose/dose rate radiation: what an understanding of DNA damage response mechanisms can tell us [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The DNA damage response (DDR) mechanisms represent a vital line of defense against exogenous and endogenous DNA damage to enhance two distinct outcomes, survival and the maintenance of genomic stability. The latter is critical for cancer avoidance.

Hippo pathway at the crossroads of stemness and therapeutic resistance in breast cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway drives nuclear accumulation of YAP/TAZ, activating stemness‐related transcriptional programs that sustain breast cancer stemness and fuel therapeutic resistance across subtypes, underscoring Hippo signaling as a targetable vulnerability. Figure created and edited with BioRender.com.
