Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), a nuclear protein, is expressed ubiquitously in mammals. This homotrimer protein is a doughnut-shaped molecule that is expressed at high levels in the thymus, bone marrow, fetal liver, and few cells of the small intestine and colon. PCNA is mainly located in the nucleus. The PCNA gene is a single-copy gene mapped to human chromosome 20p13.

Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human PCNA
Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) participates in DNA replication and repair. It acts as an auxiliary factor of polymerase δ. It plays a key role in the maturation of Okazaki fragments. It can be used as a prognostic and diagnostic marker in chronic lymphoid leukemia (CLL). High expression of PCNA protein is seen in breast and duodenal cancers.

In search for a unique natural combination of highly active biological components for treatment against colon cancer, we used aqueous extract of Ascidia, Styela plicata (ASCex), a marine invertebrate depending on its richness of high levels of biologically active components
Ovarian tissue cryopreservation and future transplantation is the only strategy to preserve the fertility of young female adolescent and prepubertal patients. The primary challenge to ovarian graft longevity is the substantial loss of primordial follicles during the period of ischaemia
