ARID1A Deficiency Impairs the DNA Damage Checkpoint and Sensitizes Cells to PARP Inhibitors

TL;DR: A key function of ARID1A in regulating the DNA damage checkpoint is reported, suggesting that clinical utility of PARP inhibitors might be extended beyond patients with BRCA mutations to a larger group of patients with ARID 1A-mutant tumors, which may exhibit therapeutic vulnerability toPARP inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI

PARPi Triggers the STING-Dependent Immune Response and Enhances the Therapeutic Efficacy of Immune Checkpoint Blockade Independent of BRCAness

TL;DR: It is shown that PARPi-mediated modulation of the immune response contributes to their therapeutic effects independently of BRCA1/2 mutations, providing a mechanistic rationale for using PARPi as immunomodulatory agents to harness the therapeutic efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade.
Journal ArticleDOI

Local generation of fumarate promotes DNA repair through inhibition of histone H3 demethylation

TL;DR: Exposure to ionizing radiation induces DNA-PK-dependent phosphorylation of nuclear fumarase at Thr 236, which leads to an interaction betweenfumarase and the histone variant H2A, which increases the accumulation of the Ku70-containing DNA- PK at DSB regions for non-homologous end-joining DNA repair and cell survival.
