    Abstract Proper functioning of cells-their ability to divide, differentiate, and regenerate-is dictated by genomic stability. The main factors contributing to this stability are the telomeric ends that cap chromosomes. Telomere biology and telomerase activity have been of interest to scientists in various medical science fields for years, including the study of both cancer and of senescence and aging. All these processes are accompanied by telomere-length modulation. Maintaining the key levels of telomerase component (hTERT) expression and telomerase activity that provide optimal telomere length as well as some nontelomeric functions represents a promising step in advanced anti-aging strategies, especially in dermocosmetics. Some known naturally derived compounds contribute significantly to telomere and telomerase metabolism. However, before they can be safely used, it is necessary to assess their mechanisms of action and potential side effects. This paper focuses on the metabolic potential of natural compounds to modulate telomerase and telomere biology and thus prevent senescence and skin aging.

    Abstract Many intensive studies are devoted to identifying novel cancer diagnostics or therapy strategies that would boost cancer therapy efficacy and recovery rates. Importantly, polymorphisms in the genes coding for ABC family proteins were considered good candidates for cancer development risk or cancer drug resistance markers. For this reason, we decided to assess the contribution of ABCB1's most common variants (i.e., G2677T/A in exon 21/rs2032582 and C3435T in exon 26/rs1045642) to the cancer therapy response in breast cancer patients. A 10-year follow-up analysis of 157 breast cancer patients was performed. Clinical assessment, ABCB1 polymorphism status, estrogen/progesterone/human epidermal receptors status, and other characteristics were compared according to the follow-up status using the Chi-square statistic. For the analysis of overall survival curves in TCGA breast cancer patients, the Xena browser was used. We show that neither 2677 nor 3435 polymorphisms contributed to the survival of breast cancer patients. Interestingly, but not surprisingly, estrogen and progesterone receptors status were good prognostic factors and positively correlated with a disease-free survival for up to 10 years. To summarize,

    Abstract One of the most innovative medical trends is personalized therapy, based on simple and reproducible methods that detect unique features of cancer cells. One of the good prognostic and diagnostic markers may be the miRNA family. Our work aimed to evaluate changes in selected miRNA levels in various breast cancer cell lines (MCF7, MDA-MB-231, SK-BR-3) treated with doxorubicin or cisplatin. The selection was based on literature data regarding the most commonly altered miRNAs in breast cancer (21-3p, 21-5p, 106a-5p, 126-3p, 126-5p, 155-3p, 155-5p, 199b-3p, 199b-5p, 335-3p, 335-5p). qPCR assessment revealed significant differences in the basal levels of some miRNAs in respective cell lines, with the most striking difference in miR-106a-5p, miR-335-5p and miR-335-3p—all of them were lowest in MCF7, while miR-153p was not detected in SK-BR-3. Additionally, different alterations of selected miRNAs were observed depending on the cell line and the drug. However, regardless of these variables, 21-3p/-5p, 106a, 126-3p, 155-3p and 199b-3p miRNAs were shown to respond either to doxorubicin or to cisplatin treatment. These miRNAs seem to be good candidates for markers of breast cancer cell response to doxorubicin or cisplatin. Especially since some earlier reports suggested their role in affecting pathways and expression of genes associated with the DNA-damage response. However, it must be emphasized that the preliminary study shows effects that may be highly related to the applied drug itself and its concentration. Thus, further examination, including human samples, is required.
