Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a DNA damage sensor that catalyzes the poly (ADP-ribose) (PAR) onto a variety of target proteins, such as histones, DSB repair factors and PARP1 itself under consumption of NAD. Besides, PARP1 can affect a variety of proteins in noncovalent modification manner to carry out specific cellular functions. Here, we established a method to generate non-radiolabeled free PAR by PARG moderately cleaving PAR from autoPARylated PARP1, and utilized dot-blot assay to determine the interaction between free PAR and interested proteins. The methods to generate free PAR and detect the noncovalent interactions between proteins and free PAR are nonradioactive and convenient, which will facilitate the studies to explore the significance of PAR reading in various biological processes.

Prognostic Implications of Occult Nodal Metastases in Patients with Clinically N0 Primary Parotid Gland Cancer.

Medicina (Kaunas)

November 2024

Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Seoul St. Mary's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Seoul 06591, Republic of Korea.

The role of occult nodal metastases in patients with parotid gland cancers remains unclear; such metastases are histologically diverse and exhibit unpredictable clinical courses. Here, we evaluated the prognostic utilities of such metastases, including metastases in the intraparenchymal lymph nodes (PARs). We retrospectively reviewed the medical charts of patients who underwent surgery to treat clinically N0 primary parotid gland cancers from 2000 to 2022.

The analysis of eye movements is a noninvasive, reliable and fast method to detect and quantify brain (dys)function. Here, we investigated the performance of two novel eye-trackers-the Thomas Oculus Motus-research mobile (TOM-rm) and the TOM-research stationary (TOM-rs)-and compared them with the performance of a well-established video-based eye-tracker, i.e.

The development of machine-learning (ML) potentials offers significant accuracy improvements compared to molecular mechanics (MM) because of the inclusion of quantum-mechanical effects in molecular interactions. However, ML simulations are several times more computationally demanding than MM simulations, so there is a trade-off between speed and accuracy. One possible compromise are hybrid machine learning/molecular mechanics (ML/MM) approaches with mechanical embedding that treat the intramolecular interactions of the ligand at the ML level and the protein-ligand interactions at the MM level.

Article Synopsis
  • High-power tunable lasers are highly sought after for their applications in telecom, ranging, and molecular sensing, but integrated photonics has struggled with power due to size limitations.
  • The introduction of large-mode-area (LMA) fibers in the late 90s significantly improved the power capability of fiber systems by increasing the optical mode area.
  • This study demonstrates a silicon photonics-based LMA power amplifier that achieves an output power of 1.8W over a 60nm tunability range, indicating a potential advancement in integrated lasers for high-power applications that can compete with traditional bench systems.
