Article Abstract

Aims And Background: A number of important cancer-associated covalent modifications of histone genes can be regulated by microRNAs (miRNAs) that bind to their target sites in the 3'-untranslated regions. We evaluated the effect of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at the miR-502 binding site in the 3'-untranslated region of the SET8 gene on the clinical outcome of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL).

Methods And Study Design: The miR-502 binding site SNP of rs16917496 in the 3'-untranslated region of SET8 was genotyped with the ligation detection reaction method. The association of rs16917496 with NHL survival was calculated with the log-rank test using the Kaplan-Meier method. Multivariate survival analysis was performed using a Cox proportional hazards model.

Results: Patients carrying the rs16917496 CC genotype had a significantly longer survival time than patients carrying the CT genotype (P = 0.043) or TT genotype (P = 0.086). In addition, rs16917496 was associated independently with the survival of NHL patients in multivariate analysis (CC vs TT, 95% CI: 1.021-3.279, RR: 1.829, P = 0.043; CC vs CT, 95% CI: 1.026-3.339, RR: 1.851, P = 0.041). The association of rs16917496 with NHL survival was further identified in the peripheral T cell lymphoma (pTCL) subtype of NHL at borderline statistically significant levels (P = 0.069).

Conclusion: Our study provides evidence that the SNP in the miRNA binding site of the SET8 3'-untranslated region seems to influence survival of NHL. It may have possible prognostic and survival value in the clinic.

CHD6 has poly(ADP-ribose)- and DNA-binding domains and regulates PARP1/2-trapping inhibitor sensitivity via abasic site repair.

To tolerate oxidative stress, cells enable DNA repair responses often sensitive to poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) polymerase 1 and 2 (PARP1/2) inhibition-an intervention effective against cancers lacking BRCA1/2. Here, we demonstrate that mutating the CHD6 chromatin remodeler sensitizes cells to PARP1/2 inhibitors in a manner distinct from BRCA1, and that CHD6 recruitment to DNA damage requires cooperation between PAR- and DNA-binding domains essential for nucleosome sliding activity. CHD6 displays direct PAR-binding, interacts with PARP-1 and other PAR-associated proteins, and combined DNA- and PAR-binding loss eliminates CHD6 relocalization to DNA damage.

The 40S ribosomal subunit recycling pathway is an integral link in the cellular quality control network, occurring after translational errors have been corrected by the ribosome-associated quality control (RQC) machinery. Despite our understanding of its role, the impact of translation quality control on cellular metabolism remains poorly understood. Here, we reveal a conserved role of the 40S ribosomal subunit recycling (USP10-G3BP1) complex in regulating mitochondrial dynamics and function.

Background: Estriol (E3) is a common estrogen responsible for regulating the female reproductive system, but excessive amount can pose health risks to humans and wild life. Therefore, sensitive and accurate detection of estriol level is crucial. A novel competitive ECL immunosensor based on a dual signal amplification strategy of AuNPs@GO@SmMoSe and Gd(MoO) was fabricated for ultrasensitive detection of estriol.

Carboxyl-terminus of Hsp70-Interacting Protein (CHIP) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that marks misfolded substrates for degradation. Hyper-activation of CHIP has been implicated in multiple diseases, including cystic fibrosis and cancer, suggesting that it may be a potential drug target. However, there are few tools available for exploring this possibility.
