Summary Repetitive DNA is a feature of all organisms, ranging from archaea and plants to humans. DNA repeats can be seen both in coding and in noncoding regions of the genome. Due to the recurring nature of the sequences, simple DNA repeats tend to be more prone to errors during replication and repair, resulting in variability in their unit length ...

Premature recruitment of oocyte pool and increased mTOR activity in Fmr1 knockout mice and reversal of phenotype with rapamycin. [PDF]
While mutations in the fragile X mental retardation-1 (FMR1) gene are associated with varying reproductive outcomes in females, the effects of a complete lack of FMR1 expression are not known.

ABSTRACT Diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is one of the most prevalent haematological malignancies in both humans and dogs, characterised in both species by significant clinical heterogeneity and limited prognostic predictability. With the introduction of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) technologies in veterinary medicine over the past decade ...

Ferroptosis, a controlled cell death, is driven by iron and characterized by reactive oxygen species and lipid peroxidation. The impact of lipid peroxides, GSH/GPX4, and iron metabolism–targeting small molecule inhibitors is discussed. Nucleic acids, proteins, and phytochemicals are implicated as inhibitors of ferroptosis.

Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common hereditary condition affecting approximately 1 in 500 adults. It is characterized by marked clinical heterogeneity with individuals experiencing minimal to no symptoms, while others may have more severe outcomes including heart failure and sudden cardiac death.

Polyglutamine expansion induced dynamic misfolding of androgen receptor
Abstract Spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is caused by a polyglutamine expansion (pQe) in the N‐terminal transactivation domain of the human androgen receptor (AR‐NTD), resulting in a combination of toxic gain‐ and loss‐of‐function mechanisms. The structural basis of these processes has not been resolved due to the disordered nature of the NTD ...

Etiology of prostate cancer with the TMPRSS2:ERG fusion: A systematic review of risk factors
What's new? The most common somatic alterations in primary prostate cancer are gene fusions involving TMPRSS2 and ERG. TMPRSS2:ERG‐positive cancers may be etiologically distinct from cancers without this fusion. This study sought to better understand etiologic factors underlying TMPRSS2:ERG fusion in prostate cancer via systematic review of ...
