Checkpoint kinase 2 deficiency affects the engagement of DNA double-strand break repair pathways following DNA damage

Checkpoint kinase 2 (CHK2) participates in the DNA damage response (DDR) by regulating the cell cycle or inducing apoptosis, and its abnormal activity can lead to cancer development. CHK2 loss-of-function mutations correlate with the onset of many types of tumors and with therapy resistance. As the exact molecula...

Genome stability disrupted by the circRBM39(4,5,6)-RPA2 axis represses breast tumorigenesis.

Genome instability (GI) is a hallmark of cancer. GI is associated with accumulative DNA damage and tumor-specific defects in DNA repair. Multiple antitumor drugs have been developed to promote persistent GI and to drive DNA damage beyond a threshold that tumor cells can survive. However, regulatory roles of circular RN...

Disrupting the BEX4-Mediated DNA Repair Rheostat with a Novel Inhibitor Suppresses Stemness and Enhances Chemosensitivity in Hepatoblastoma.

Cisplatin resistance in hepatoblastoma (HB) is a major therapeutic barrier. Emerging evidence suggests that cancer cells can activate DNA double-strand break repair pathways to evade chemotherapy-induced apoptosis and sustain stemness; however, the mechanisms underlying cisplatin resistance in HB remain poorly understo...

Nuclear cathepsin L induces DNA damage by regulating DNA repair factors in ovarian cancer.

Resistance to PARP inhibitors (PARPi) remains a major clinical challenge in ovarian cancer (OC), emphasizing the need for novel strategies to enhance therapeutic efficiency. Our previous work revealed that the antimalarial drug quinacrine (QC) can be repurposed to induce cell death in OC by promoting lysosomal release...

STAT5A-RNF8 signaling regulates homologous recombination repair and cisplatin responsiveness in cervical cancer

Cisplatin resistance remains a major limitation in the treatment of cervical cancer, with enhanced DNA damage repair contributing to reduced therapeutic sensitivity. The role of STAT5A in coordinating DNA double-strand break repair under therapeutic stress remains unclear. Here, we investigated the role of STAT5A in ci...
