Maternal diet quality and health status of newborns Lecturer: Mgr. Jitka Pavlíková, Ph.D. / Department of Toxicology a Molecular Epidemiology Annotation: Persistent organic pollutants are compounds of mostly anthropogenic origin that persist in the environment for a long time, become part of food chains, and some of them accumulate in living organisms. These substances are being monitored for…

“The impact of genetic cheating on mammalian reproduction and speciation”  Selfish DNA violate Mendel’s Law of Segregation by biased segregation to the egg cell. This genetic cheating, meiotic drive, is a widespread phenomenon across eukaryotes with associated fitness costs such as fertility issues. I will discuss our recent work on the cell biological mechanism of…

“Chromatin ADP-ribosylation in neurodegenerative disease” ADP-ribosylation is a common protein post-translational modification that regulates numerous cellular processes, including transcription, cell proliferation and differentiation, immune and stress responses, aging, and cell death. One of its most extensively studied roles is in DNA damage response and subsequent DNA repair. Moreover, deregulation of ADP-ribose metabolism is linked to…

“Molecular mechanisms of proteoglycan-mediated semaphorin signaling in axon guidance” The precise assembly of a functional nervous system relies on axon guidance cues. Beyond engaging their cognate receptors and initiating signaling cascades that modulate cytoskeletal dynamics, guidance cues also bind components of the extracellular matrix, notably proteoglycans, yet the role and mechanisms of these interactions remain…

Monitoring of telomeres through colorectal adenomas to advanced stages of colorectal cancer Lecturer: Mgr. Kateřina Balounová / Department of the Molecular Biology of Cancer Annotation: Telomeres, repetitive sequences located at the ends of chromosomes, naturally shorten with ageing. Disruption in telomere biology is closely associated with the onset and progression of cancers, including colorectal carcinoma (CRC). Given…
