Background: The ten-eleven translocation (TET) family oxidize 5-methylcytosines (5mCs) and promote the locus-specific reversal of DNA. The role of TETs in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is mostly unknown. Methods: TETs mRNA expression levels were analyzed via Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA). The association TETs expression levels and methylation with prognosis by UALCAN GenomicScape, and METHsurv. We analyzed TETs’ aberration types, located mutations, and structures via cBioPortal. GeneMANIA performed the functional network. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment was analyzed via LinkedOmics. -

An Abstract of The Role of Base Excision Repair and Mismatch Repair Proteins in the Processing of Cisplatin Interstrand Cross-Links By Akshada Sawant Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree in Biomedical Science The University of Toledo August 2014 Cisplatin is a well-known anticancer agent that forms a part of many combination chemotherapeutic treatments used against a variety of human cancers. Despite successful treatment, the development of resistance is the major limitation of the cisplatin based therapy. Base excision repair modulates cisplatin cytotoxicity. Moreover, mismatch repair deficiency gives rise to cisplatin resistance and leads to poor prognosis of the disease. Various models have been proposed to explain this low level of resistance caused due to loss of MMR proteins. In our previous studies, we have shown that BER processing of the cisplatin ICLs is mutagenic. Our studies showed that these mismatches lead to the activation and the recruitment of mismatch repair proteins. -

Combination of Oxoplatin with Other FDA-Approved Oncology Drugs
International Journal of Molecular Sciences Article Theoretical Prediction of Dual-Potency Anti-Tumor Agents: Combination of Oxoplatin with Other FDA-Approved Oncology Drugs José Pedro Cerón-Carrasco Reconocimiento y Encapsulación Molecular, Universidad Católica San Antonio de Murcia Campus los Jerónimos, 30107 Murcia, Spain; [email protected] Received: 16 April 2020; Accepted: 2 July 2020; Published: 3 July 2020 Abstract: Although Pt(II)-based drugs are widely used to treat cancer, very few molecules have been approved for routine use in chemotherapy due to their side-effects on healthy tissues. A new approach to reducing the toxicity of these drugs is generating a prodrug by increasing the oxidation state of the metallic center to Pt(IV), a less reactive form that is only activated once it enters a cell. We used theoretical tools to combine the parent Pt(IV) prodrug, oxoplatin, with the most recent FDA-approved anti-cancer drug set published by the National Institute of Health (NIH). The only prerequisite imposed for the latter was the presence of one carboxylic group in the structure, a chemical feature that ensures a link to the coordination sphere via a simple esterification procedure. Our calculations led to a series of bifunctional prodrugs ranked according to their relative stabilities and activation profiles. Of all the designed molecules, the combination of oxoplatin with aminolevulinic acid as the bioactive ligand emerged as the most promising strategy by which to design enhanced dual-potency oncology drugs. Keywords: cancer; drug design; organometallics; platinum-based drugs; bifunctional compounds; theoretical tools 1. Introduction The unexpected discovery of the bioactivity of Pt salts by Rosenberg about 60 years ago opened the door to a new type of cancer treatment: chemotherapy with transition metals [1].
