The ATM protein kinase mediates a rapid induction of cellular responses to DNA double strand breaks (DSBs). ATM kinase activity is enhanced immediately after exposure of cells to DSB-inducing agents, but no changes in its amount or subcellular location following that activation have been reported. We speculated that some of the ATM molecules associate with sites of DSBs, while the rest of the n...

Unsupervised domain adaptation addresses the problem of transferring knowledge from a well-labeled source to an unlabeled target where two domains have distinctive data distributions. Thus, essence is mitigate distribution divergence between domains. The state-of-the-art methods practice this very idea by either conducting adversarial training or minimizing metric which defines gaps. In paper, ...

The ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) protein kinase plays a central role in the cellular response to DNA damage. Loss or inactivation of both copies of the ATM gene (ATM) leads to ataxia telangiectasia, a devastating childhood condition characterized by neurodegeneration, immune deficiencies, and cancer predisposition. ATM is also absent in approximately 40% of mantle cell lymphomas (MCLs), ...

The ATM/p53-dependent DNA damage response pathway plays an important role in the progression of lymphoid tumors. Inactivation of the ATM or TP53 gene is frequent in B-cell lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) and leads to aggressive disease. Although the ATM and p53 pathways overlap, they are not congruent, and it is unclear how the mechanism of tumor progression differs between ATM- and p53-deficient ...

UNLABELLED The Mre11 complex (Mre11, Rad50, and Nbs1) occupies a central node of the DNA damage response (DDR) network and is required for ATM activation in response to DNA damage. Hypomorphic alleles of MRE11 and NBS1 confer embryonic lethality in ATM-deficient mice, indicating that the complex exerts ATM-independent functions that are essential when ATM is absent. To delineate those functions...

Mutations in the Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) gene are frequently found in human cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Loss of ATM function confers sensitivity to ionising radiation (IR) and topoisomerase inhibitors and may thus define a subset of cancer patients that could get increased benefit from these therapies. In this study, we evaluated the phenotypic consequence...

Individuals carrying mutations at both ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) gene alleles reportedly have increased plasma cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Previous studies have demonstrated that defective ATM function promotes atherosclerosis. We previously demonstrated that ATM facilitates the clearance of plasma apolipoprotein (Apo)E-deficient, ApoB48-containing (E(-)/B(48)) lipoproteins i...

This paper describes the design and implementation of a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for the layered network topology and the connections in an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network managed by the ATM Network Management System (NMS). There are physical and logical networks in an ATM network. In addition, the ATM connections, which are ATM Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs), have two kind...

AIMS The gene mutated in ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T), designated ATM (for "A-T mutated"), is believed to be associated with an increased risk of developing breast cancer. Most patients with A-T have null mutations of the ATM gene that appear to give rise to a truncated nonfunctional ATM protein. Therefore, the increased risk of breast cancer reported in A-T heterozygotes appears to be the resul...
