Inhibition of DNA2 nuclease as a therapeutic strategy targeting replication stress in cancer cells
17 Apr 2017
Abstract excerpt
Replication stress is a characteristic feature of cancer cells, which is resulted from sustained proliferative signaling induced by activation of oncogenes or loss of tumor suppressors. In cancer cells, oncogene-induced replication stress manifests as replication-associated lesions, predominantly double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs). An essential mechanism utilized by cells to repair replication-associated DSBs is...
