This study evaluates the potential of ozonated corn starch (OCS) and ultrasonicated ozonated corn starch (USOCS) as adsorbents for patulin removal in buffer solutions. The results indicated that dual modification significantly altered the starch's structure, introducing functional groups such as carbonyl and carboxyl groups, and increasing its surface area. These modifications led to enhanced patulin adsorption capacity.

ROS cause multiple forms of DNA damage, and among them, 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoGua), an oxidized product of guanine, is one of the most abundant. If left unrepaired, 8-oxoGua may pair with A instead of C, leading to a mutation of G: C to T: A during DNA replication. 8-Oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1) is a tailored repair enzyme that recognizes 8-oxoGua in DNA duplex and initiates the base excision repair (BER) pathway to remove the lesion and ensure the fidelity of the genome.

Survival outcomes of Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in the developing world have lagged. Here we report improved outcomes of pediatric ALL from India. We analyzed outcomes of children with ALL treated at our center between 2016 and 2021.

Acrolein (ACR) is a ubiquitous environmental pollutant but also formed endogenously as a metabolite in oxidative stress conditions. Its adduct to adenine 1,N-α-hydroxypropanoadenine (HPA) is a mutagenic lesion effectively repaired by the AlkB dioxygenase. Here, we provide in vivo, in vitro, and in silico evidence that it is also the substrate for the AlkA glycosylase.

Here, we demonstrate that single strand annealing (SSA) can be co-opted for the precise autocatalytic excision of a drive element. We have termed this technology Repeat Mediated Excision of a Drive Element (ReMEDE). By engineering direct repeats flanking the drive allele and inducing a double-strand DNA break (DSB) at a second endonuclease target site within the allele, we increased the utilization of SSA repair.
