Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) have made an important discovery about how genetic mutations in ...
When DNA breaks, cells must repair it accurately to prevent harmful mutations. Researchers have discovered that during a key repair process called homologous recombination, the cell uses loops in its ...
Identification of variants influences treatment decisions. Inhibitors of the poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) system, a pathway for repairing single-stranded DNA breaks, are recommended for tumors ...
Prognosis and survival evaluation in treating high-risk BRAF V600 mutation stage III or IV melanoma with dabrafenib plus trametinib therapy: A meta-analysis of 2,660 patients.
11-Ketotestosterone and time to castration resistance in patients with recurrent non-metastatic prostate cancer receiving androgen deprivation therapy. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2024 ...

Illustration showing how autophagy induction increases the efficiency of precise gene editing. In normal cells, DNA breaks caused by CRISPR–Cas9 are frequently repaired through non-homologous end ...
On any given day, our DNA takes a lot of damage. In a single cell, as many as 10,000 errors or lesions in our chromosomes can arise in the course of 24 hours. Most are accurately repaired, so the cell ...
Three biochemical steps of the non-homologous DNA end-joining (NHEJ) process. This figure outlines the key stages of the NHEJ repair mechanism following DNA double-strand breaks. The process can be ...
