Clinical use and mechanisms of resistance for PARP inhibitors in homologous recombination-deficient cancers
27 Jan 2021
Abstract excerpt
Cells are continuously subjected to DNA damaging agents. DNA damages are repaired by one of the many pathways guarding genomic integrity. When one or several DNA damage pathways are rendered inefficient, cells can accumulate mutations, which modify normal cellular pathways, favoring abnormal cell growth. This supports malignant transformation, which can occur when cells acquire resistance to cell cycle...
