They also discovered that the most successful invaders are those whose tolerance to cold or dry extremes is close to the tolerance of the native tree communities. The research results provide insights to preventative management of forest ecosystems for mitigation of negative…

New mechanism of genome folding
03-08-2023…atory elements. The interpretation of this information occurs within a complex three-dimensional genome folding architecture in the cell nucleus that shapes chromosomes to bring regulatory elements into spatial proximity of their target genes. The 3D organisation of the genome spans multiple scales, including well-demarcated physically interacting domains, known as Topologically Associated Domains (TADs). Previous research identified TADs as the…

UW researchers’ discovery supporting the treatment of breast cancer
11-07-2023…the researchers tested various anticancer agents in two cell lines that comprise a panel of drug-modulated circRNAs/linRNAs. According to the oncogenic or anticancer role, the scientists observed the upregulation of circRNA and downregulation of linRNA within the same gene in association with specific mutated pathways, such as PI3K/AKT in MCF-7 or the NHEJ DNA repair pathway in the TP53-mutated MDA-MB-231 cell. The researchers indicate that only…
