Targeting the 8-oxodG Base Excision Repair Pathway for Cancer Therapy
14 Jan 2025
Abstract excerpt
Genomic integrity is critical for cellular homeostasis, preventing the accumulation of mutations that can drive diseases such as cancer. Among the mechanisms safeguarding genomic stability, the Base Excision Repair (BER) pathway plays a pivotal role in counteracting oxidative DNA damage caused by reactive oxygen species. Central to this pathway are enzymes like 8-oxoguanine glycosylase 1 (OGG1), which recognize...
