Persistence of neutrophil extracellular traps and anticardiolipin auto-antibodies in post-acute phase COVID-19 patients

Ekaterina Pisareva et al.

Summary: This study suggests that neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) play a key role in COVID-19 pathogenesis, and the levels of certain markers are associated with disease severity, with high diagnostic accuracy. Additionally, some patients show persistent imbalance in immune response and a prolonged pro-thrombotic potential activity. Monitoring these markers is crucial for the recovery of COVID-19 patients.

Neutrophil extracellular traps have auto-catabolic activity and produce mononucleosome-associated circulating DNA

Ekaterina Pisareva et al.

Summary: This study reveals the mechanism linking NET and cirDNA, demonstrating that NET is a major source of mono-N cirDNA independent of apoptosis. It establishes a new paradigm of cirDNA release mechanism in both normal and pathological conditions, and demonstrates a connection between immune response and cirDNA.

Cell-free DNA topology depends on its subcellular and cellular origins in cancer

Ethan Z. Malkin et al.

Summary: Cancer cells release cfDNA, which is predominantly associated with nucleosomal particles and not EVs. Additionally, a subset of mitochondrial cfDNA is membrane protected and derived from non-tumor cells. These findings have important implications for understanding the topology of cfDNA in cancer.

Deciphering the genetic and epidemiological landscape of mitochondrial DNA abundance

Sara Hagg et al.

Summary: This study investigated the factors influencing mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) abundance, revealing that it is higher in women compared to men and negatively correlated with age, smoking exposure, BMI, frailty index, and certain blood biochemistry markers. Genome-wide association study identified 50 regions significantly associated with mtDNA abundance, indicating the involvement of genes related to immunity, cancer, and mitochondrial function. The SNP-heritability of mtDNA abundance was estimated to be around 8%, and mtDNA abundance was found to be associated with leukemia, hematologic diseases, and hypertension.

Evaluation of circulating cell-free nuclear and mitochondrial DNA levels in Syrian patients with breast tumor

Milda Safi et al.

Summary: The study found no significant differences in plasma levels of ccfnDNA and ccfmtDNA in breast cancer patients. However, in the control group, a positive correlation was observed between the ccfmtDNA/ccfnDNA ratio and age, ccfnDNA levels and estrogen receptor status, and a negative correlation between ccfmtDNA/ccfnDNA ratio and progesterone receptor status.

Circulating nuclear DNA structural features, origins, and complete size profile revealed by fragmentomics

Cynthia Sanchez et al.

Summary: The study reveals that circulating cell-free DNA exhibits a specific fragmentation pattern, primarily inserted in nucleosomes or chromatin and affected by continuous nuclease activity. The size distribution of cfDNA can be used for quality control and samples with a higher proportion of malignant cell-derived cfDNA show increased fragmentation and nuclease activity.

Kinetics and Topology of DNA Associated with Circulating Extracellular Vesicles Released during Exercise

Elmo W. Neuberger et al.

Summary: This study investigated the association of cell-free circulating DNA (cfDNA) and cancer-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) in healthy human plasma. It found that only a small portion of cfDNA is associated with EVs, primarily on the outer surface. Exercise was shown to increase the levels of EVs, cfDNA, and EV-associated DNA, with the majority of DNA being located on the outer surface of circulating EVs rather than in their lumen.

Towards systematic nomenclature for cell-free DNA

Abel J. Bronkhorst et al.

Summary: The report classifies different types of cfDNA molecules in the human body based on origin, genetic traits, and locality, suggesting new terms and abbreviations to address the lack of universal cfDNA nomenclature. Recommendations for proper usage of these terms are made, focusing on oncology, prenatal testing, and post-transplant surgery surveillance in particular.
