Article Abstract
CCDC6 is rearranged in approximately 20% of papillary thyroid carcinomas and some lung cancers participating in the formation of PTC1/ret proto-oncogene oncogene. CCDC6 is involved in the cellular response to DNA damage and is stabilized by ATM-mediated phosphorylation at Thr434. However, the E3 ligase that targets CCDC6 for destruction is unknown. Here, we show that FBXW7 interacts with and targets CCDC6 for ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal degradation. Moreover, FBXW7-mediated CCDC6 degradation is impaired in response to DNA damage. Mechanistically, phosphorylation of CCDC6 at Thr434 by ATM during DNA damage response prevents FBXW6-CCDC6 interaction and FBXW7-mediated CCDC6 degradation. Our results suggest that the involvement of FBXW7 in targeting CCDC6 for destruction will be useful for the establishment of new therapeutic approaches for cancer treatment.

Guishen-erxian Decoction can improve ovarian function in rats with premature ovarian failure by inhibiting oxidative stress and granulosa cell DNA fragmentation mediated by the PI3K/Akt/FOXO3a pathway.

Background: The aim of this study was to establish a rat model of premature ovarian failure (POF) with cyclophosphamide (CTX), and explore the molecular basis of POF and the mechanism of Guishen-Erxian Decoction (GSEXD) to improve POF from the perspective of oxidative stress regulation of ovarian granulosa cell (OGC) DNA fragmentation.
Method: The study utilized SD rats to establish a POF model via CTX. Rats were divided into Control, POF group, three GSEXD dosage groups (low, medium, high), and a GSEXD+PI3K agonist group to assess GSEXD's therapeutic effects on oxidative stress, DNA fragmentation and ovarian damage.
Targeting the ERα DBD-LBD interface with mitoxantrone disrupts receptor function through proteasomal degradation.

The estrogen receptor (ER or ERα) remains the primary therapeutic target for luminal breast cancer, with current treatments centered on competitive antagonists, receptor down-regulators, and aromatase inhibitors. Despite these options, resistance frequently emerges, highlighting the need for alternative targeting strategies. We discovered a novel mechanism of ER inhibition that targets the previously unexplored interface between the DNA-binding domain (DBD) and ligand-binding domain (LBD) of the receptor.

This review aims to describe the role of poly-ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) in the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), an aggressive and lethal form of the disease. The introduction of PARPi has led to improved prognosis, particularly in patients with at least one somatic or germline mutation in DNA damage repair genes such as BRCA1 or BRCA2. Several recent studies have shown that PARPi, used alone or in combination with abiraterone or enzalutamide, improve progression-free survival and overall survival in patients with mCRPC.

Nitric oxide (NO) is a multifunctional signaling molecule in oncology, influencing tumor progression, apoptosis, and immune responses. In contrast, chlorambucil (Cbl), a DNA-alkylating chemotherapeutic, induces cytotoxicity through DNA damage. Here, we report a photoresponsive nanoparticle platform for sequential codelivery of NO and Cbl, where NO is released within 10 min of irradiation, followed by Cbl release within 30 min.

While agriculture is essential for food security, the intensive use of pesticides in modern farming practices raises concerns on their impact, in particular from a One Health perspective. In 2024, Brazil approved 663 new pesticides, a 19% increase in comparison with 2023. The occupational exposure of rural workers is known to be associated with a range of health outcomes, including cancer.
