Abstract
Accumulating evidence has suggested the fundamental functions of NAD+-poly(ADPribose) metabolism in cellular and physiological processes, including energy homeostasis, signal transduction, DNA transaction, genomic stability and cell death or survival. The NAD+ biosynthesis and poly(ADP-ribose) [(ADP-R)n] turnover are tightly controlled by several key enzymes, such as nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NmPRT), nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferases (NMNATs), poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) and ADP-ribose pyrophosphorylase (ADPRPPL). Many researches investigating the roles of these enzymes in cells have revealed the physiological and pathological importance, and thereby the therapeutical values. Among these enzymes, the polymer degrading enzyme PARG has not yet been intensively studied, because of the low cellular content, lack of cell-available PARG chemical inhibitors and PARG genetic models. So, the biological roles of (ADP-R)n catabolism by PARG are still being elucidated as compared to those of synthesis by PARP. However, recent studies delineate that PARG-dependent (ADP-R)n degradation is critical for many pathological conditions, and thus PARG is an important target for chemical therapeutics for several diseases. This review will present the recent progresses about the roles of NAD+-(ADP-R)n metabolism and the structures and functions of PARG, with a focus on its role in DNA repair and cell death by apoptosis in relation to central regulatory network, and the therapeutic potentials of PARG inhibitors in cancer chemotherapy.

Nutrition and Metabolism in Musculoskeletal Diseases
The musculoskeletal system consists mainly of cartilage, bone, muscles, tendons, connective tissue and ligaments. Balanced metabolism is of vital importance for the homeostasis of the musculoskeletal system. A series of musculoskeletal diseases (for example, sarcopenia, osteoporosis) are resulted from the dysregulated metabolism of the musculoskeletal system. Furthermore, metabolic diseases (such ...read more
Protein Folding, Aggregation and Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation
Protein folding, misfolding and aggregation remain one of the main problems of interdisciplinary science not only because many questions are still open, but also because they are important from the point of view of practical application. Protein aggregation and formation of fibrillar structures, for example, is a hallmark of a ...read more
