Epigenetic changes activate widespread signals in response to double-strand breaks.

Abstract:

:Double-strand breaks are one the most severe types of DNA damage with respect to cell survival and the preservation of genomic integrity. Therefore, cells have evolved complex mechanisms including cell cycle regulation, activation of repair pathways and in certain cases induction of apoptosis in response to these lesions. The molecular details of many of the cellular responses to double-strand breaks have been well characterized. Our understanding of these responses in the context of chromatin has also progressed recently. In this review, we focus our discussion on the significance of DNA damage-induced chromatin modifications in double-strand break signaling and repair pathways. In particular, findings from recent studies suggest mechanisms by which highly localized double-strand breaks may activate widespread signals throughout the cell by inducing alterations in chromatin structure.

  • C1B domain peptide of protein kinase Cγ significantly suppresses growth of human colon cancer cells in vitro and in an in vivo mouse xenograft model through induction of cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.

    abstract::Two peptides derived from the C1B domain of protein kinase Cγ (PKCγ) were shown to associate with classical PKC isozymes and modulate their activities. These C1B peptides are designated C1B1 (amino acid residues 101-112) and C1B5 (residues 141-151). Since PKC enzyme activity is shown to be involved in colon cancer dev...
