ER stress-associated IRE1α signalling links impaired QPRT-dependent NAD⁺ biosynthesis to reduced oocyte competence

Mohd Athar, Ajith Kumar E, Pravin Birajdar, Rajender M, Akshay Kumar, Anjali Kumari, Sahina Sabnam, Ankita Verma, Pradnya. L, Partha Sarathi Nial, Taru Sharma G, HBD Prasada Rao

This study links ER stress and impaired NAD biosynthesis via QPRT to reduced oocyte quality and shows that NMN supplementation improves oocyte function and early embryonic development.

HIPK2-and IKKβ-dependent phosphorylation stabilizes TAp63α during the oocyte DNA damage response

Anjali Kumari, Kiran Kumar P, Akshay Kumar, Aradhana Mohanty, Abhilasha S, Ajith Kumar E, Ajith Kumar E, Athar Mohd, Pravin Birajdar, Silambresan Y, Sahina Sabnam, Ravi Kiran Putchala, Ramesh Yelagandula, H. B. D. Prasada Rao

This study identifies HIPK2 and IKKβ as kinases that phosphorylate TAp63α, stabilizing it during the oocyte DNA damage response and enhancing oocyte survival.
