Chromatin and Nucleosome-Associated Features in Liquid Biopsy: Implications for Cancer Biomarker Discovery
Biochem Cell Biol. 2024 Mar 13. doi: 10.1139/bcb-2024-0004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCell-free DNA (cfDNA) from the bloodstream has been studied for cancer biomarker discovery, and chromatin-derived epigenetic features have come into the spotlight for their potential to expand clinical applications. Methylation, fragmentation, and nucleosome positioning patterns of cfDNA have previously been shown to reveal epigenomic and inferred transcriptomic information. More recently, histone modifications have emerged as a tool to further identify tumor-specific chromatin variants in plasma. A number of sequencing methods have b...

Exogenous Hydrogen Sulfide Prevents SOD2 Degradation to Safeguard Renal Function in Diabetic Kidney Disease
This study was undertaken to unveil the mechanisms by which H2S counteracts against DKD. Utilizing mice and human renal tubular epithelial (HK-2) cells, we demonstrated a reduction in cystathionine-γ-lyase (CSE)/H2S levels within renal tissues of db/db mice and in HK-2 cells subjected to hyperglycemic and hyperlipidemic environments. Notably, we observed that NaHS supplementation could serve as an exogenous source of H2S. Exogenous H2S exhibited the capacity to mitigate the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and attenuate the degradation of superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) by Lon protease homolog 1 (LONP1) induced...
