Targeting autophagy reverses de novo resistance in homologous recombination repair proficient breast cancers to PARP inhibition
21 Jan 2021
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) target tumours defective in homologous recombination (HR). Most BRCA-wild-type (WT) HR-proficient breast cancers are intrinsically resistant to PARP inhibitors, e.g., talazoparib. We evaluated the role of autophagy in this de novo resistance and determined the underlying mechanism to overcome this. METHODS: Autophagosome formation and autophagic flux were...
