Effect of the Mediterranean diet on the faecal long-chain fatty acid composition and intestinal barrier integrity: an exploratory analysis of the randomised controlled LIBRE trial.

We recently showed that adherence to the Mediterranean diet increased the proportion of plasma -3 PUFA, which was associated with an improved intestinal barrier integrity. In the present exploratory analysis, we assessed faecal fatty acids in the same cohort, aiming to investigate possible associations with intestinal barrier integrity. Women from the Lifestyle Intervention Study in Women with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (LIBRE) randomised controlled trial, characterised by an impaired intestinal barrier integrity, followed either a Mediterranean diet (intervention group, 33) or a standard diet (control group, 35).

β-TrCP-Mediated Proteolysis of Mis18β Prevents Mislocalization of CENP-A and Chromosomal Instability.

Restricting the localization of evolutionarily conserved histone H3 variant CENP-A to the centromere is essential to prevent chromosomal instability (CIN), an important hallmark of cancers. Overexpressed CENP-A mislocalizes to non-centromeric regions and contributes to CIN in yeast, flies, and human cells. Centromeric localization of CENP-A is facilitated by the interaction of Mis18β with CENP-A specific chaperone HJURP.

Mck1-mediated proteolysis of CENP-A prevents mislocalization of CENP-A for chromosomal stability in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Centromeric localization of evolutionarily conserved CENP-A (Cse4 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is essential for chromosomal stability. Mislocalization of overexpressed CENP-A to noncentromeric regions contributes to chromosomal instability in yeasts, flies, and humans. Overexpression and mislocalization of CENP-A observed in many cancers are associated with poor prognosis.

DNAJC9 prevents CENP-A mislocalization and chromosomal instability by maintaining the fidelity of histone supply chains.

The centromeric histone H3 variant CENP-A is overexpressed in many cancers. The mislocalization of CENP-A to noncentromeric regions contributes to chromosomal instability (CIN), a hallmark of cancer. However, pathways that promote or prevent CENP-A mislocalization remain poorly defined.

Interaction of histone H4 with Cse4 facilitates conformational changes in Cse4 for its sumoylation and mislocalization.

Mislocalization of overexpressed CENP-A (Cse4 in budding yeast, Cnp1 in fission yeast, CID in flies) contributes to chromosomal instability (CIN) in yeasts, flies, and human cells. Mislocalization of CENP-A is observed in many cancers and this correlates with poor prognosis. Structural mechanisms that contribute to mislocalization of CENP-A are poorly defined.
