Recent studies have defined a novel pathway for the repair of interstrand cross-links derived from the reaction of an adenine residue with an apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site on the opposing strand of DNA (dA-AP ICL). Stalling of a replication fork at the dA-AP ICL triggers TRAIP-dependent ubiquitylation of the CMG helicase that recruits the base excision repair glycosylase NEIL3 to the lesion. NEIL3 unhooks the dA-AP ICL to regenerate the native adenine residue on one strand and an AP site on the other strand. Covalent capture of the abasic site by the SRAP protein HMCES protects against genomic instability that would result from cleavage of the abasic site in the context of single-stranded DNA at the replication fork. After repair synthesis moves the HMCES-AP adduct into the context of double-stranded DNA, the DNA-protein cross-link is resolved by a nonproteolytic mechanism involving dissociation of thiazolidine attachment. The AP site in duplex DNA is then repaired by the base excision repair pathway.

Recurrent Refractory Non-Dupuytren Contracture in Females After Limited Fasciectomy.

Non-Dupuytren's contracture, a cord-like structure formed because of trauma or surgery, rarely requires surgery. An 81-year-old woman underwent flexor tendon sheath release for right middle finger snapping and flexor tenolysis for postoperative complications. At the referral, a cord existed between the base of the middle finger and the mid-palm, and a 50° extension deficit of the metacarpophalangeal joint was noted.

Identification of common diagnostic genes and molecular pathways in endometriosis and systemic lupus erythematosus by machine learning approach and in vitro experiment.

Growing research suggests that endometriosis and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are both chronic inflammatory diseases and closely related, but no studies have explored their common molecular characteristics and underlying mechanisms. Based on GEO datasets, differentially expressed genes in the endometriosis cohort and the SLE cohort were screened using Limma and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), and prediction signatures were constructed using LASSO logistic regression analysis, respectively. Four co-diagnostic genes (PMP22, QSOX1, REV3L, SP110) were identified for endometriosis and SLE.

Reassessing the roles of oxidative DNA base lesion 8-oxoGua and repair enzyme OGG1 in tumorigenesis.

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.

Broad repression of DNA repair genes in senescent cells identified by integration of transcriptomic data.

Cellular senescence plays a significant role in tissue aging. Senescent cells, which resist apoptosis while remaining metabolically active, generate endogenous DNA-damaging agents, primarily reactive oxygen species. Efficient DNA repair is therefore crucial in these cells, especially when they undergo senescence escape, resuming DNA replication and cellular proliferation.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) plays a crucial role in DNA repair and genomic stability maintenance. However, the regulatory mechanisms governing PARP1 activity, particularly through deubiquitination, remain poorly elucidated. Using a deubiquitinase (DUB) library binding screen, we identified cylindromatosis (CYLD) as a bona fide DUB for PARP1 in breast cancer cells.
