Radiation therapy is a common treatment modality for lung cancer, and resistance to radiation can significantly affect treatment outcomes. We recently described that lung cancer cells that express more germ cell cancer genes (GC genes, genes that are usually restricted to the germ line) can repair DNA double-strand breaks more rapidly, show higher rates of proliferation and are more resistant to ionizing radiation than cells that express fewer GC genes. The gene encoding TRIP13 appeared to play a large role in this malignant phenotype.

Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS) is a rare primary immunodeficiency disease due to a pathogenic variant in the NBN gene causing impaired DNA repair and increased predisposition for lymphoid malignancy. By contrast, solid tumors have been rarely reported. Neuroblastoma (NB) is a rare childhood solid tumor, associated with the worse outcome if MYCN oncogene is amplified.

Various DNA damage checkpoint control mechanisms in eukaryotic cells help maintain genomic integrity. Among these, NBS1, a key component of the MRE11-RAD50-NBS1 (MRN) complex, is an essential protein involved in the DNA damage response (DDR). In this study, we discovered that DNA damage-binding protein 1 (DDB1) interacts with NBS1.

Assessments of breast cancer (BC) risk in carriers of pathogenic variants identified by gene panel testing in different populations are highly in demand worldwide. We performed target sequencing of 78 genes involved in DNA repair in 860 females with BC and 520 age- and family history-matched controls from Central Russia. Among BC patients, 562/860 (65.

Background/objectives: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases, for which a definitive cure is still missing. Recently, natural compounds have been investigated for their possible neuroprotective role, including the bioactivated product of glucoraphanin (GRA), the sulforaphane (SFN), which is highly rich in cruciferous vegetables. It is known that SFN alleviates neuronal dysfunction, apoptosis, and oxidative stress in the brain.
