English to Italian: P53 tumor suppressor
General field: Science
Detailed field: Medical: Pharmaceuticals
Source text - English
Classically, p53 tumor suppressor acts in transcription, apoptosis, and cell cycle arrest. Yet, replication-mediated genomic instability is integral to oncogenesis, and p53 mutations promote tumor progression and drug-resistance. By delineating human and murine separation-of-function p53 alleles, we find that p53 null and gain-of-function (GOF) mutations exhibit defects in restart of stalled or damaged DNA replication forks driving genomic instability genetically separable from transcription activation. By assaying protein-DNA fork interactions in single cells, we unveil a p53-MLL3-enabled recruitment of MRE11 DNA replication restart nuclease. Importantly, p53 defects or depletion unexpectedly allow mutagenic RAD52 and POLq pathways to hijack stalled forks, which we find reflected in p53 defective breast-cancer patient COSMIC mutational signatures.

Generalmente, il soppressore tumorale p53 agisce nella trascrizione, nell’apoptosi e nell'arresto del ciclo cellulare.. Tuttavia, l’instabilità genomica mediata dalla replicazione è parte dell’oncogenesi e le mutazioni del p53 favoriscono la progressione del tumore e la sua resistenza ai farmaci. Delineando gli alleli p53 della separazione-di-funzione umana e murina troviamo che le mutazioni p53 di tipo “null” e “gain-of-function” (GOF) presentano difetti nel riavvio di certe forcelle di replicazione del DNA che guidano l’instabilità genomica geneticamente separabile dall’attivazione della trascrizione. Analizzando le interazioni tra proteine del DNA e proteine di singole cellule, sveliamo un reclutamento di nucleazione di replicazione del DNA MRE11 abilitato p53-MLL3 È importante sottolineare che, sorprendentemente, i difetti o la deplezione del p53 consentono ai percorsi mutagenici RAD52 e POLq di dirottare le forcelle che troviamo bloccate nelle firme mutazionali COSMIC del paziente affetto da carcinoma mammario p53.
English to Italian: Bikunina
General field: Science
Detailed field: Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-)
Source text - English
Bikunin has been extensively studied in urine as it is present in high abundance. Urinary levels of bikunin have been reported to change with disease, whereas plasma levels have been reported to remain constant except in secondary disorders affecting liver and kidney functions, indicating physiological control over bikunin levels in vivo. Proteoglycan-enriched urine and plasma samples analyzed in this study were found to contain the same level of bikunin. IαI and HC-bikunin in plasma were found to contain HC1 and HC2 that could not be completely separated by chondroitinase ABC digestion, a phenomenon that has been reported previously. The absence of un- and 6-sulfated CS linkage region structures attached to bikunin has been reported previously and was confirmed in this study. The 4-sulfated CS linkage region structure detected on bikunin in both proteoglycan-enriched urine and plasma analyzed in this study has been reported previously for bikunin in peritoneal fluid.

La bikunina è stata ampiamente studiata nelle urine, dove risulta essere in grande abbondanza. È stato riportato che i livelli urinari di bikunina possono cambiare con la malattia, mentre i livelli nel plasma restano costanti eccetto nei disturbi secondari che interessano le funzioni epatiche e renali, indicando un controllo fisiologico sui livelli della bikunina in vivo. È stato rilevato che i campioni di urina e plasma arricchiti con i proteoglicani analizzati in questo studio, contengono gli stessi livelli di bikunina. È stato altresì riscontrato che l’IαI e l’HC-bikunina nel plasma contengono HC1 e HC2 che potrebbero non essere completamente separati dalla digestione con condroitinasi ABC; un fenomeno questo, che è stato riportato precedentemente. È stata riportata in precedenza e confermata in questo studio l'assenza di strutture nella regione di legame del CS un- e 6- solfatato attaccato alla bikunina. La struttura nella regione di legame del CS 4-solfatato rilevato sia nella bikunina rilevata sia nelle urine arricchite con proteoglicani che nel plasma analizzati in questo studio, è stata riportata in precedenza nella bikunina del liquido peritoneale.

Two 60-μL aliquots of 1 mg/mL bikunin GAG mixture were treated with 0.2 U chondroitinase B and 0.2 U chondroitinase AC overnight at 37 °C. Products were analyzed by PAGE using Alcian blue and silver staining.
Two aliquots of the chondroitinase AC digestion products were treated with 0.1 U of chondro-4-sulfatase and 0.1 U of chondro-6-sulfatase overnight at 37 °C. Resulting mixtures were analyzed by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP HPLC) with postcolumn fluorescence detection.

Due aliquote di 60 µL di una miscela di 1 mg/mL di GAG di bikunina sono stati trattati con 0.2 U di condroitinasi B e 0.2 U di condroitinasi AC, per la durata di una notte, a 37°C. I prodotti sono stati analizzati con PAGE usando Alcian blue e silver staining (colorazione argentica).
Due aliquote dei prodotti di digestione con condroitinasi AC sono stati trattati con 0.1 U di condro-4-solfatasi e 0.1 U di contro-6-solfatasi, per tutta la notte, a 37°C. Le miscele ottenute sono state analizzate attraverso una cromatografia liquida ad alta prestazione a fase inversa (RP HPLC) con rilevazione della fluorescenza post colonna.

Bio
I was bor in Sardinia, Italy, in February 1985.
Actually I live in Moscow and I translate scientific articles as a freelancer.
I often work with a LSP based in Moscow called "EXPRIMERE".
