Scriptaid is a chemical compound with anti-tumoural effects due to its role as histone deacetylase inhibitor. Despite sharing part of the structure other ligands G-quadruplexes (G4s), interaction G4s has not been explored before. We synthesized and screened cytotoxic activity in cellular models colorectal cancer (CRC). extensively evaluated biological by cell cycle, immunofluorescence, qRT-PCR Western blot experiments. To identify G4 targets Scriptaid, we conducted panel binding assays....
Abstract Next generation sequencing methods are widely used in evaluating the structure and functioning of microbial communities, especially those centered on 16S rRNA subunit. Since Illumina Miseq, most platform, does not allow full gene, this study aims to evaluate whether choice different target regions might affect outcome microbiome studies regarding soil saliva samples. V1V3, V3V4, V4V5 V6V8 domains were studied, finding that while some showed differences detection certain bacterial...
Natural phenolic compounds have gained momentum for the prevention and treatment of cancer, but their antitumoral mechanism action is not yet well understood. In present study, we screened potential several in a cellular model colorectal cancer (CRC). We selected gallic acid (GA) as candidate terms potency selectivity extensively evaluated its biological activity. report on role GA ligand DNA G-quadruplexes (G4s), explaining effects, including transcriptional inhibition ribosomal CMYC genes....
DNA G-quadruplexes (G4s) are non-canonical secondary structures formed in guanine-rich sequences. Within the human genome, G4s found regulatory regions such as gene promoters and telomeres to control replication, transcription, telomere lengthening. In cellular context, there several proteins named G4-binding (G4BPs) that interact with G4s, either anchoring upon, stabilizing, and/or unwinding them. These may play different key roles regulation of endogenous G4 landscape its associated...
Analysis of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is increasingly used for clinical decision-making in oncology. However, ctDNA could represent ≤ 0.1 % cell-free early-stage tumors and its detection requires high-sensitive techniques such as digital PCR (dPCR).
Early breast cancer patients often experience relapse due to residual disease after treatment. Liquid biopsy is a methodology capable of detecting tumor components in blood, but low concentrations at early stages pose challenges. To detect them, next-generation sequencing has promise entails complex processes. Exploring larger blood volumes could overcome detection limitations. Herein, total 282 high-volume plasma and blood-cell samples were collected for dual ctDNA/CTCs using single...

Abstract Objective The safety, consequences, and dosage of long-term hormone therapy (HT) for postmenopausal women remain unclear. Our aim was to analyze the effects HT after 20 years in hysterectomy, focusing on symptoms menopause, blood pressure, lipid profiles, bone density. Methods A prospective observational longitudinal study designed. initial transdermal estradiol dose reduced half (0.025 mg/d) at 60 age. Different parameters including demographic, cardiovascular, density, metabolic...
Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a global public health concern affecting 1.6 billion people worldwide. The administration of iron supplements during the treatment IDA adversely affects intestinal barrier function and composition functionality microbiome, both which are already altered IDA. For this reason, it great interest to develop nutritional strategies aimed at alleviating these gut alterations associated with its treatment. In sense, fermented goat's milk (FGM) was studied due quality....

Abstract Resveratrol (RSV) is one of the most studied and used biomolecules, for which many pharmacological effects targeting multiple tissues have been described. However, a common underlying mechanism driving its full activity has not elucidated to date. G-quadruplexes (G4s) are non-canonical nucleic acid structures found in promoters involved controlling gene transcription. This study demonstrates G4-dependent mode action RSV, explaining multi-target traits. RSV was shown stabilise...
