Does Metabolite Deficiency Mark Oncogenic Cell Cycles?

چکیده

Genome instability occurs early in the development of most cancers. Bester et al. now provide evidence that oncogenic signals trigger cell division without coordinate nucleotide synthesis, engendering aberrant DNA replication and damage that could promote carcinogenesis. A mismatch between proliferation and metabolite production may characterize oncogenic cell cycles.

Interaction of viral oncogenic proteins with the Wnt signaling pathway

It is estimated that up to 20% of all types of human cancers worldwide are attributed to viruses. The genome of oncogenic viruses carries genes that have protein products that act as oncoproteins in cell proliferation and transformation. The modulation of cell cycle control mechanisms, cellular regulatory and signaling pathways by oncogenic viruses, plays an important role in viral carcinogenes...

Spermatogonia differentiation requires retinoic acid receptor γ.

Vitamin A is instrumental to mammalian reproduction. Its metabolite, retinoic acid (RA), acts in a hormone-like manner through binding to and activating three nuclear receptor isotypes, RA receptor (RAR)α (RARA), RARβ, and RARγ (RARG). Here, we show that 1) RARG is expressed by A aligned (A(al)) spermatogonia, as well as during the transition from A(al) to A(1) spermatogonia, which is known to ...

Evidence for active purine nucleoside cycles in human mononuclear cells and cultured fibroblasts.

Several aspects of purine metabolism were studied in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and fibroblasts from a patient with purine nucleoside phosphorylase deficiency and compared to cells from normal controls. Intact cells were incubated with radioactive purine bases and all purine metabolites were extracted and analyzed. Incubation of purine nucleoside phosphorylase-deficient cells with [3H]h...

Kaposi Sarcoma of Childhood: Inborn or Acquired Immunodeficiency to Oncogenic HHV‐8

Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is an endothelial malignancy caused by human herpes virus-8 (HHV-8) infection. The epidemic and iatrogenic forms of childhood KS result from a profound and acquired T cell deficiency. Recent studies have shown that classic KS of childhood can result from rare single-gene inborn errors of immunity, with mutations in WAS, IFNGR1, STIM1, and TNFRSF4. The pathogenesis of the end...
