Cep55 overexpression promotes genomic instability and tumorigenesis in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
High expression of centrosomal protein CEP55 has been correlated with clinico-pathological parameters across multiple human cancers. Despite significant in vitro studies and association of aberrantly overexpressed CEP55 with worse prognosis, its causal ...

Defective DNA single-strand break repair is responsible for senescence and neoplastic escape of epithelial cells

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
It is recognized that cellular senescence is triggered by DNA damage as a protective mechanism against tumorigenesis. Here the authors show that DNA single-strand breaks of oxidative origin can induce a transient senescent state followed by the emergence

Hepatitis C Virus Improves Human Tregs Suppressive Function and Promotes Their Recruitment to the Liver

open access: yesCells, 2019
Background: The role of regulatory T cells (Tregs) is now well established in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) linked to Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. However, nothing is known about the potential interplay between Tregs and HCV. In

The Mammary Gland Microenvironment Directs Progenitor Cell Fate In Vivo

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cell Biology, 2011
The mammary gland is a unique organ that continually undergoes postnatal developmental changes. In mice, the mammary gland is formed via signals from terminal end buds, which direct ductal growth and elongation.

DDK Promotes Tumor Chemoresistance and Survival via Multiple Pathways

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2017
DBF4-dependent kinase (DDK) is a two-subunit kinase required for initiating DNA replication at individual origins and is composed of CDC7 kinase and its regulatory subunit DBF4.

Epithelial NAIPs protect against colonic tumorigenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
NLR family apoptosis inhibitory proteins (NAIPs) belong to both the Nod-like receptor (NLR) and the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) families. NAIPs are known to form an inflammasome with NLRC4, but other in vivo functions remain unexplored.

Microbial metabolites in colorectal tumorigenesis and cancer therapy

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2023
Trillions of microbes are indigenous to the human gastrointestinal tract, together forming an ecological community known as the gut microbiota. The gut microbiota is involved in dietary digestion to produce various metabolites.

Trinity of inflammation, innate immune cells and cross-talk of signalling pathways in tumour microenvironment

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Unresolved inflammation is a pathological consequence of persistent inflammatory stimulus and perturbation in regulatory mechanisms. It increases the risk of tumour development and orchestrates all stages of tumorigenesis in selected organs.

BRCA1 and BRCA2 tumor suppressors protect against endogenous acetaldehyde toxicity

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2017
Maintenance of genome integrity requires the functional interplay between Fanconi anemia (FA) and homologous recombination (HR) repair pathways. Endogenous acetaldehyde, a product of cellular metabolism, is a potent source of DNA damage, particularly ...
