Transient adenoviral N-methylpurine DNA glycosylase overexpression imparts chemotherapeutic sensitivity to human breast cancer cells
1 Aug 2004
Abstract excerpt
In an effort to improve the efficacy of cancer chemotherapy by intervening into the cellular responses to chemotherapeutic change, we have used adenoviral overexpression of N-methylpurine DNA glycosylase (MPG or ANPG/AAG) in breast cancer cells to study its ability to imbalance base excision repair (BER) and sensitize cancer cells to alkylating agents. Our results show that MPG-overexpressing cells are...
