Alterations of DNA damage repair in cancer: from mechanisms to applications

Abstract excerpt

Abstract: DNA damage repair (DDR) pathways are essential to ensure the accurate transmission of genetic material. However, different endogenous and exogenous factors challenge genomic integrity. Mechanisms involved in the alterations of DDR pathways mainly include genetic inactivation and epigenetic mechanisms. The development and progression of carcinomas are closely associated with DDR pathway aberrations,...
