TLDR
A phylogenetic comparison of PCNA genes suggests that the multi-functionality observed in most species is a product of evolution.

Umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells promote proliferation and migration in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells through activation of the ERK pathway.

TL;DR: The findings showed that UC-MSC-CM promoted the proliferation and migration of breast cancer cell lines via activation of the ERK pathway, and U0126, an inhibitor of ERK, reversed the effects of UC- MSCs.

DNA Base Excision Repair in Plants: An Unfolding Story With Familiar and Novel Characters.

TL;DR: Plant BER plays an important role in preserving genome integrity through removal of damaged bases, however, it performs additional important functions, such as the replacement of the naturally modified base 5-methylcytosine with cytosine in a plant-specific pathway for active DNA demethylation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydroxytyrosol from olive fruits prevents blue-light-induced damage in human keratinocytes and fibroblasts.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that hydroxytyrosol protects keratinocytes and fibroblasts from LED‐BL‐induced damage and might be proposed as an encouraging candidate for the prevention of BL‐induced premature photoaging.

Multi-Therapeutic Potential of Naringenin (4',5,7-Trihydroxyflavonone): Experimental Evidence and Mechanisms.

TL;DR: Various pharmacological activities of naringenin, such as anticancer, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, neuroprotective, cardioprotective and nephroprotective effects, have been discussed along with their mechanisms of action.
Journal ArticleDOI

Postnatal development, maturation and aging in the mouse cochlea and their effects on hair cell regeneration.

TL;DR: The pursuit of regeneration in the postnatal and adult mouse cochlea is focused on and processes that occur during postnatal development, maturation, and aging are highlighted that could contribute to an age-related decline in regenerative potential.

WAF1, a potential mediator of p53 tumor suppression

TL;DR: A gene is identified, named WAF1, whose induction was associated with wild-type but not mutant p53 gene expression in a human brain tumor cell line and that could be an important mediator of p53-dependent tumor growth suppression.
Journal ArticleDOI

p21 is a universal inhibitor of cyclin kinases

TL;DR: It is found that over expression of p21 inhibits the activity of each member of the cyclin/CDK family, and this results indicate that p21 may be a universal inhibitor of cyclin kinases.

Molecular Mechanisms of Mammalian DNA Repair and the DNA Damage Checkpoints

TL;DR: The molecular mechanisms of DNA repair and the DNA damage checkpoints in mammalian cells are analyzed and apoptosis, which eliminates heavily damaged or seriously deregulated cells, is analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cyclin/PCNA is the auxiliary protein of DNA polymerase-delta.

TL;DR: Cyclin and the auxiliary protein of DNA polymerase-δ are identical, and it is reported here that these two are identical.
