Abstract

8-Hydroxyguanine (8-OH-G) was discovered in 1983 in our laboratory at the National Cancer Center Research Institute, Tokyo. Since it could be formed in DNA not only in vitro but also in vivo by oxygen radical forming agents, we immediately hypothesized the importance of this discovery in connection with its biological consequence. Further intensive efforts by us from 1983 to 1990 confirmed that 8-OH-G is a highly significant oxidated DNA lesion involved in mutation and/or carcinogenesis in mammals, including humans. With the subsequent entry of many investigators to this research field the number of publications on 8-OH-G increased exponentially, reaching more than several thousands by the end of 2005. In this article, a summary is given of the important works carried out in the early days, and further notable contributions by many investigators are reviewed, focusing on 8-OH-G in the mammalian system. A special emphasis is given to research on knockout mice that are deficient in genes involved in the repair systems of the 8-OH-G lesion. Lastly, our own recent work is summarized involving a one-year carcinogenesis study of Ogg1 (the gene for 8-OH-G specific glycosylase/AP lyase) knockout mice that have been exposed to oxidative...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
