A newly discovered molecule disrupts cancer cells’ ability to repair DNA by triggering the breakdown of key proteins. Cancer ...
Poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) are used for patients with advanced prostate cancer bearing alterations in homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes. We sought to characterize HRR gene ...
SAN DIEGO – Saruparib, a selective inhibitor of poly-ADP ribose polymerase 1 (PARP1), demonstrated a promising objective response rate and progression-free survival in patients with certain homologous ...
A recent study, undertaken by researchers at the Tokyo Metropolitan University and the Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Medical Science (both Japan), unravels key steps in the process of homologous ...
Tokyo, Japan – Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have been studying DNA repair by homologous recombination, where the RecA protein repairs breaks in double-stranded DNA by incorporating a ...
Researchers at AACR described the development of a classifier that identified a proportion of tumor samples with HRD that did not have BRCA1/2 mutations.
Precision gene editing is crucial for treating genetic diseases, as it enables targeted correction of specific mutations. A Korean research team has become the first in the world to significantly ...
Learn more about a new experimental procedure that uses cancer cells’ DNA repair system against itself to make drug-resistant ...
