OncotargetA New Way to Target Resistant Prostate Cancer CellsProstate cancer is the second most diagnosed cancer among men worldwide and remains a leading cause of cancer-related death. While early forms of the disease can usually be treated successfully, advanced cases remain a major challenge. Scientists have now discovered a new potential way to slow the growth of advanced, treatment-resistant prostate cancer. These results were recently published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget by researchers from the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine.

Base by Base️ 44: Proofreading Precision — Unveiling the Cryo-EM Mechanism of Human DNA Polymerase ε Holoenzyme️ Episode 44: Proofreading Precision — Unveiling the Cryo-EM Mechanism of Human DNA Polymerase ε Holoenzyme In this episode of Base per Base, we delve into a groundbreaking study by Wang et al. (2025) in PNAS that illuminates the molecular choreography of the human leading-strand DNA polymerase ε (Polε) holoenzyme during mismatch proofreading. By combining in situ mismatch generation with high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy, the research captures authentic intermediates of the Polε–PCNA complex as it recognizes, backtracks, and excises replication errors, offering an unprecedented view of this essential fidelity mechanism. Key highlights: The authors reveal that a primer containing a preformed mismatch i...2025-06-1219 min
OncotargetTargeting PCNA-Androgen Receptor Interaction Suppresses Prostate Cancer Cell GrowthBUFFALO, NY - June 4, 2025 – A new #research paper was #published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on May 20, 2025, titled “Targeting PCNA/AR interaction inhibits AR-mediated signaling in castration resistant prostate cancer cells."
In this study, authors Shan Lu and Zhongyun Dong from the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine investigated how interfering with a protein interaction could reduce prostate cancer growth. Their study based on prostate cancer cells shows that blocking the link between PCNA, a protein important for DNA repair, and the androgen receptor (AR), which drives prostate cancer growth, can slow down cancer cell multiplication.

Tierärztliche Fakultät - Digitale Hochschulschriften der LMU - Teil 07/07Vergleichende Untersuchungen zur Morphologie der Hornhaut der HaussäugetiereZiel dieser Arbeit war es, mittels Licht- und Rasterelektronenmikroskopie sowie immunhistochemischen Methoden, die Morphologie der Hornhaut im tierartlichen Vergleich an Hand unserer Haussäugetiere detailliert zu beschreiben. Für die Untersuchungen wurden die Hornhäute von 28 Schweinen, 11 Rindern, 2 Ziegen, 6 Pferden, 4 Hunden und 5 Katzen verwendet. Speziesspezifische Besonderheiten wurden bildlich dokumentiert und zur Verdeutlichung tabellarisch dargestellt.
Die Hornhaut unserer Haussäugetiere baut sich aus dem Hornhautepithel, dem Stroma, der Descemetschen Membran und dem Hornhautendothel auf. Eine Bowmansche Membran konnte nicht dargestellt werden.
Die Fleischfresser besitzen verglichen mit den Huftieren eine deutlich dünnere Hornhaut. Insbesondere das dreischichtige Epithel (Stratum basale, Stratum intermedium und S...2015-01-3100 minFakultät für Biologie - Digitale Hochschulschriften der LMU - Teil 03/06Analysis of the DNA damage response in living cellsDNA lesions arising from environmental and endogenous sources induce various cellular responses including cell cycle arrest, DNA repair and apoptosis. Although detailed insights into the biochemical mechanisms and composition of DNA repair pathways have been obtained from in vitro experiments, a better understanding of the interplay and regulation of these pathways requires DNA repair studies in living cells.
In this study we employed laser microirradiation and photobleaching techniques in combination with specific mutants and inhibitors to analyze the real-time accumulation of proteins at laser-induced DNA damage sites in vivo, thus unravelling the mechanisms underlying the coordination of DNA repair in...2007-12-1900 minFakultät für Biologie - Digitale Hochschulschriften der LMU - Teil 02/06Regulation of replication-linked functions by PCNA and SUMOGenomic integrity largely depends on the accurate replication and faithful
transmission of the genetic information to the progeny each time a cell divides.
To ensure the fidelity of these fundamental processes, highly sophisticated
protein networks have evolved. This study investigated how the diverse
mechanisms for maintaining genomic integrity are integrated and coordinated at
the replication fork.
In the first part, the roles of post-translational modifications with ubiquitin
and SUMO in regulating replication through DNA lesions were investigated.
Previous work in S. cerevisiae showed that post-translational modifications of
the replication factor PCNA control DNA repair activities of the replisome. PCNA
is...2006-12-1800 minFakultät für Biologie - Digitale Hochschulschriften der LMU - Teil 02/06Regulation der Genomstabilität durch SUMO- und Ubiquitin-Modifikation von PCNAEine akkurate DNA-Replikation ist notwendig, um die Stabilität der genetischen Information zu gewährleisten. Dieser Prozess wird durch DNA-Läsionen erschwert, die durch eine Vielzahl von Ursachen entstehen und häufig nicht vor dem Erreichen der S-Phase repariert werden können. Nicht nur kann durch Läsionen geschädigte DNA häufig nicht dupliziert werden, angehaltene Replikationsgabeln können auch zusammenbrechen und so zu DNA-Strangbrüchen führen.
Die Funktion des RAD6-pathways liegt darin, die Umgehung (Bypass) von DNA-Läsionen während der Replikation zu ermöglichen, wodurch eine Toleranz gegenüber Schädigungen der DNA erreicht wird. In dieser Arbeit...2005-11-0800 minFakultät für Biologie - Digitale Hochschulschriften der LMU - Teil 01/06RAD6-abhängige DNA-Reparatur wird durch Ubiquitin- und SUMO-Modifikation von PCNA reguliertDas Protein Ubiquitin kann posttranslational an Proteine geknüpft werden.
Dieser Vorgang ist für den Abbau von Proteinen durch das Proteasom
notwendig.Neben dieser Funktion hat die Modifikation mit Ubiquitin noch
weitere Funktionen,die nicht zum Abbau des Proteins führen.Ubiquitin-
ähnlichen Proteine,wie beispielsweise SUMO,sind ebenfalls nicht direkt am
Proteinabbau beteiligt.Die Konsequenz der Modifikation,und das
Zusammenspiel Ubiquitin-ähnlicher-Systeme mit dem Ubiquitin-System sind
bisher allerdings wenig verstanden.
PCNA (Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen)ist eine zentrale Komponente der
DNA-Replikation und DNA-Reparatur.Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit konnte
gezeigt werden,daß PCNA über drei verschiedene posttranslationale
Modifikationen reguliert wird.In...2002-11-2700 min
