Programmed DNA elimination (PDE) occurs in various metazoans. Parasitic nematodes have long been the major experimental model for PDE investigation. New studies have reported that some genetically tractable free-living nematodes also undergo PDE, paving the way for understanding the molecular mechanisms of PDE in metazoans.

In the post-large era, various COVID-19 sequelae are getting more and more attention to health problems. Although the mortality rate of the COVID-19 infection is now declining, it is often accompanied by new clinical sequelae with different symptoms such as fatigue after infection, loss of smell. The degree of age, gender, virus infection seems to be weakly correlated with clinical symptoms.

Background: Lynch syndrome (LS), characterised by an increased risk for cancer, is mainly caused by germline pathogenic variants affecting a mismatch repair gene (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2). Occasionally, LS may be caused by constitutional MLH1 epimutation (CME) characterised by soma-wide methylation of one allele of the MLH1 promoter. Most of these are "primary" epimutations, arising de novo without any apparent underlying cis-genetic cause, and are reversible between generations.

Background/aim: Immune checkpoint blockade has achieved great success as a targeted immunotherapy for solid cancers. However, small molecules that inhibit programmed death 1/programmed death ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) binding are still being developed and have several advantages, such as high bioavailability. Previously, we reported a novel PD-1/PD-L1-inhibiting small compound, SCL-1, which showed potent antitumor effects on PD-L1 tumors.

Background/aim: Breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) are a subpopulation of tumor cells that play a role in therapeutic resistance. In this study, we demonstrated that sertaconazole, an antifungal agent, displayed a potent inhibition on cancer stem cells (CSCs) and investigated the mechanism of action involved in its anti-BCSC effect.
Materials And Methods: The effect of sertaconazole on BCSCs was investigated using a mammosphere formation assay, a colony formation assay, and a cell migration assay.

"One-pot" assays which combine amplification with CRISPR/Cas12a system are in constant attracted for biosensors development. Herein, we present a one-pot isothermal assay that Ligation-recognition triggered Recombinase Polymerase Amplification (RPA)-CRISPR/Cas12a cis-cleavage (LRPA-CRISPR) fluorescent biosensor for sensitive, specific, and label-free miRNA detection. Firstly, we reveal the programmed double-stranded DNA amplicons, which utilized the ligation-recognition and polymerization to form and amplified by the RPA system.
