Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting the DNA repair defect in BRCA mutant cells as a therapeutic strategy

TL;DR: BRCA1 or BRCA2 dysfunction unexpectedly and profoundly sensitizes cells to the inhibition of PARP enzymatic activity, resulting in chromosomal instability, cell cycle arrest and subsequent apoptosis, illustrating how different pathways cooperate to repair damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phthalazinones 2: Optimisation and synthesis of novel potent inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase.

TL;DR: A novel series of meta-substituted 4-benzyl-2H-phthalazin-1-one PARP-1 inhibitors which retain low nM cellular activity and show good stability in vivo and efficacy in cell based models are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

A FlashPlate assay for the identification of PARP-1 inhibitors.

TL;DR: The developed assay is a robust and reproducible method of screening for PARP-1 inhibitors that is low maintenance and cost-effective and can easily be automated.
