Precision Targeting Strategies in Cancer Therapy: Focusing on Synthetic Lethality with FAK Inhibition

2024-05-22

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Synthetic lethality, involving the simultaneous deactivation of two genes, plays a critical role in disrupting vital cellular functions or prompting cell death. This study delves into the impact of synthetic lethality within cancer research, specifically examining the interplay between the Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) and Neurofibromin 2 (NF2) genes. While deactivating FAK or NF2 individ...
