Journal ArticleDOI

Rational combination therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma with PARP1 and DNA-PK inhibitors.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that both DSB repair pathways are up-regulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) compared with adjacent normal tissues due to altered expression of DNA repair factors, including PARP1 and DNA-PKcs.
Journal ArticleDOI

POT1 inhibits the efficiency but promotes the fidelity of nonhomologous end joining at non-telomeric DNA regions.

TL;DR: Mechanistic studies indicate that POT1 facilitates the recruitment of Artemis, which is a nuclease and promotes fidelity of NHEJ, to DNA damage sites, and overexpression of POT2 inhibits the protein stability of Lig3, therefore suppressing the efficiency of alt-NHEJ.
Journal ArticleDOI

Base excision repair but not DNA double-strand break repair is impaired in aged human adipose-derived stem cells.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the efficiency of base excision repair (BER) and two DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair pathways-nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) and homologous recombination (HR)-between the young and old groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

The roles of RNA helicases in DNA damage repair and tumorigenesis reveal precision therapeutic strategies.

TL;DR: The role ofRNA helicases in DNA damage and their associations with cancer, which could expand therapeutic strategies and improve precision treatments for cancer patients with high expression of RNA helicases are revealed.
