The mutations of breast cancer type 1 susceptibility gene (BRCA1) cause hereditary breast cancer. One of the medical revolutions of cancer therapy for BRCA1-mutated breast cancer is the drug approval of Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors because of the synthetic lethal interaction between BRCA1 mutation and PARP inhibition. Here, we report another synthetic lethal interaction between BRCA1 and TIMELESS interacting protein (TIPIN), the latter of which encodes a protein involved in DNA replication, DNA damage checkpoint and sister chromatid cohesion. Cells deficient for both BRCA1 and TIPIN die due to elevated chromosomal aberrations including chromosomal breaks and radial chromosomes. The synthetic lethality of TIPIN/BRCA1-deficient cells is restored by the depletion of Tumor protein p53 binding protein 1 (53BP1), which prevents homologous recombination (HR) by its restricting DNA processing. Thus, spontaneous DNA lesions in TIPIN deficient cells could be preferentially repaired by BRCA1-mediated HR pathway. The viability of TIPIN/53BP1/BRCA1 triple mutant is lost by the depletion of Ring finger protein 8 (RNF8) E3-ubiquitin ligase, implicating that RNF8-mediated sub-HR pathway may work in a complementary manner of BRCA1 and 53BP1 pathway.

Background: We predicted the number of cancer deaths and rates for 2025 in the European Union (EU), its five most populous countries, and the UK, focusing on breast cancer.
Materials And Methods: We derived population data and death certificates for all cancers and major sites for the EU, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, and the UK since 1970, from the World Health Organization and United Nations databases. Estimates for 2025 were computed by linear regression on recent trends identified through Poisson joinpoint regression, considering the slope of the most recent trend segment.

Breast cancer has emerged as the leading cause of global cancer incidence, surpassing lung cancer. Accumulating evidence suggests that probiotics exhibit inhibitory effect on breast cancer progression, highlighting the need to identify gut flora-derived probiotics with potential anti-breast cancer properties. Here, we investigated the effect of the cell-free supernatant of C.

Despite having valuable and novel metabolites, the marine microalgae species are still not thoroughly investigated for their pharmaceutical and nutraceutical importance. Therefore, this study was focused on investigating the crude extracts of marine green microalgae species, Tetraselmis sp., Nannochloropsis sp.
