Rad51 inhibition is an effective means of targeting DNA repair in glioma models and CD133+ tumor-derived cells
1 Mar 2011
Abstract excerpt
High grade gliomas (HGGs) are characterized by resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Targeting Rad51-dependent homologous recombination repair may be an effective target for chemo- and radiosensitization. In this study we assessed the role of Rad51-dependent repair on sensitivity to radiation and temozolomide (TMZ) as single agents or in combination. Repair protein levels in established glioma cell lines,...
