Published: December 2013

The accurate duplication and transmission of genetic information is critical for cell growth and proliferation, and this is ensured in part by the multi-layered regulation of DNA synthesis. One of the key steps in this process is the selection and activation of the sites of replication initiation, or origins, across the genome. Interestingly, origin usage changes during development and in different pathologies, suggesting an integral interplay between the establishment of replication initiation along the chromosomes and cellular function. The present review discusses how the spatiotemporal organization of replication origin activation may play crucial roles in the control of biological events.

Unlabelled: Resilience-building in palliative care professionals: scoping review BACKGROUND: Burnout, demoralisation and compassion fatigue are common among palliative care professionals. Practising palliative care necessitates a quality of resilience in order to ensure constant and optimal patient care. However, there is no universal approach to prevent burnout or raise resilience among palliative care professionals.

In vitro and ex vivo studies on drug metabolism and stability are vital for drug development and pre-clinical safety assessment. Traditional in vitro models, such as liver enzyme (S9) fractions and microsomes, often fail to account for individual variability. Personalized models, including 3D cell models and organoids, offer promising alternatives but may not fully replicate physiological processes, especially for Cytochrome P450 (CYP) families involved in extrahepatic metabolism.
