DNA damage response deficiency enhances neuroblastoma progression and sensitivity to combination PARP and ATR inhibition

Abstract excerpt

Sequencing of neuroblastoma (NB) tumors has revealed genetic alterations in genes involved in DNA damage response (DDR) pathways. However, roles for specific alterations of DDR genes in pediatric solid tumors remain poorly understood. To address this, mutations in the DDR pathway including Brca2, Atm, and Palb2 were incorporated into an established zebrafish MYCN transgenic model (Tg(dbh:EGFP-MYCN)). These...
