BRCA1 regulates multiple cellular pathways that maintain genomic stability including cell cycle checkpoints, DNA repair, protein ubiquitination, chromatin remodelling, transcriptional regulation and apoptosis. Receptor-associated 80 (RAP80) helps recruit to double-strand breaks (DSBs) through the scaffold CCDC98 (Abraxas) facilitates damage response (DDR). However, of RAP80-BRCA1 complex is still unclear. Here we report a deubiquitinase, USP13, DDR by targeting RAP80. Mechanistically, USP13...

Homologous recombination (HR) is one of the major DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair pathways in mammalian cells. Defects HR trigger genomic instability and result cancer predisposition. The defining step homologous strand exchange directed by protein RAD51, which recruited to DSBs BRCA2. However, regulation BRCA2-RAD51 axis remains unclear. Here we report that ubiquitination RAD51 hinders RAD51-BRCA2 interaction, while deubiquitination facilitates binding recruitment thus critical for...

Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved catabolic process, which plays a vital role in removing misfolded proteins and clearing damaged organelles to maintain internal environment homeostasis. Here, we uncovered the checkpoint kinase 2 (CHK2)-FOXK (FOXK1 FOXK2) axis playing important DNA damage-mediated autophagy at transcriptional regulation layer. Mechanistically, following damage, CHK2 phosphorylates FOXK creates 14-3-3γ binding site, which, turn, traps cytoplasm. Because functions as...

Post-stroke depression (PSD) seriously affects the rehabilitation of nerve function and quality life. However, pathogenesis PSD is still not clear. This study aimed to investigate demographic, clinical, biochemical factors in patients with PSD.Patients an acute ischemic stroke, who met inclusion criteria at Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital from April 2016 September 2016, were recruited for this study. The stroke severity was assessed using National Institutes Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS),...

Abstract DEAD box RNA helicase 17 (DDX17) is a transcriptional regulator of several transcription factors, which more appreciated than its role in metabolism. However, prognostic value and biofunction DDX17 HCC remain unclear. Illuminating the mechanism underlying regulating progression by may contribute to therapeutic strategies. In our study, we report for first time that was overexpressed specimens using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) immunohistochemistry (IHC) correlated clinical...

The dysregulation of autophagy is related to a variety cardiovascular diseases, such as myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Nerve growth factor (NGF) has been shown have therapeutic potential in ischaemic heart injury. In this study, we demonstrate that NGF administration can accelerate autophagic flux and attenuate protein ubiquitination I/R heart. Our results showed could restored function decreased the apoptosis cardiomyocytes which induced by protective effect associated with...

Abstract The human RecQ helicase BLM is involved in the DNA damage response, metabolism, and genetic stability. Loss of function mutations cause instability/cancer predisposition syndrome Bloom syndrome. However, molecular mechanism underlying regulation cancers remains largely elusive. Here, we demonstrate that deubiquitinating enzyme USP37 interacts with deubiquitinates stabilizes BLM, thereby sustaining response (DDR). Mechanistically, double-strand breaks (DSB) promotes ATM...

Abstract DNA damage plays a significant role in the tumorigenesis and progression of disease. Abnormal repair affects therapy prognosis cancer. In this study, it is demonstrated that deubiquitinase USP25 promotes non‐homologous end joining (NHEJ), which turn contributes to chemoresistance It shown deubiquitinates SHLD2 at K64 site, enhances its binding with REV7 NHEJ. Furthermore, deficiency impairs NHEJ‐mediated reduces class switch recombination (CSR) ‐deficient mice. overexpressed subset...

Glioblastoma (GBM), characterized by high morbidity and mortality, is one of the most common lethal diseases worldwide. To identify molecular mechanisms that contribute to development GBM, three cohort profile datasets (GSE50161, GSE90598 GSE104291) were integrated thoroughly analyzed; these included 57 GBM cases 22 normal brain tissue. The current study identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs), analyzed potential candidate pathways. Additionally, a DEGs‑associated protein‑protein...
