26 Sept 2016
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) is a multifunctional enzyme that is involved in DNA repair and the redox regulation of transcription factors. Blocking these functions leads to cell-growth inhibition, apoptosis and other effects. Previous studies have demonstrated that high expression levels of the APE1 protein are associated with the progression and chemoresistance of cancers. We...
