Interrogation of SLFN11 in pediatric sarcomas uncovers an unexpected biological role and a novel therapeutic approach to overcoming resistance to replicative stress
2020-11-05
Abstract excerpt
Pediatric sarcomas represent a heterogeneous group of malignancies that exhibit variable response to DNA damaging chemotherapy. Schlafen family member 11 protein (SLFN11) increases sensitivity to replicative stress, and SLFN11 gene silencing has been implicated as a common mechanism of drug resistance in tumors in adults. We found SLFN11 to be widely expressed in our cohort of pediatric sarcomas. In sarcoma cell...
