Use of the Internet for health information has been gaining popularity, and some studies suggest an increase in the use of online interactive peer-to-peer forums for seeking health information. Internet health information-seeking is especially popular among those with stigmatized conditions such as obesity, and negative healthcare experiences have been linked...
The down‐regulation of dominant oncogenes, including C‐MYC, in tumor cells often leads to the induction of
senescence via mechanisms that are not completely identified. In the current study, we demonstrate that MYC‐depleted
melanoma cells undergo extensive DNA damage that is caused by the underexpression of thymidylate synthase (TS) and
ribonucleotide...
In normal human cells, oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) depends on induction of DNA damage response (DDR). Oxidative stress and hyper-replication of genomic DNA have been proposed as major causes of DNA damage in OIS cells. Here we report that down-regulation of deoxyribonucleoside pools is another endogenous source of DNA damage in...
Whitebark pine, Pinus albicaulis Engelm. is an important but declining high-elevation tree species in western forests. Regeneration of this species has been difficult and the impact of cone and seed insects unknown. Seven sites selected from the geographical range of whitebark pine in Idaho, Montana, Washington, Oregon, and California were...
