The potential role and application of PARP inhibitors in cancer treatment [PDF]
, 2009 Background: Since many anti-cancer agents act by inflicting DNA damage on tumour cells, there is increasing interest in the use of inhibitors of DNA repair to increase the cytotoxicity of these agents.

The reactivity of [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(PPh₃)₄] towards difunctional chloroacetamide alkylating agents: Formation of cyclized or bridged products [PDF]
, 2011 The reactions of [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(PPh₃)₄] towards some bis(chloroacetamide) alkylating agents have been investigated. Reaction with one mole equivalent of the hydrazine-derived compound ClCH₂C(O)NHNHC(O)CH₂Cl led to the cyclized product [Pt₂{SCH₂C(O)NHNHC(O ...

Initiation of Olefin Metathesis: Reaction of Deca-2,8-diene with Catalysts formed from Me_4Sn-WC1_6 and Me_3Al_2Cl_3-(Ph_3P)_2(NO)_2Cl_2Mo [PDF]
, 1977 The initial product of the metathesis of deca-2,8-diene with metathesis catalysts formed from either Me_4Sn–WCl_6 or Me_3Al_2Cl_3–(Ph_3P)_2(NO)_2Cl_2Mo is propene; labelling of the terminal groups of the diene and the alkylating agents gives a labelling ...

A requirement for STAG2 in replication fork progression creates a targetable synthetic lethality in cohesin-mutant cancers. [PDF]
, 2019 Cohesin is a multiprotein ring that is responsible for cohesion of sister chromatids and formation of DNA loops to regulate gene expression. Genomic analyses have identified that the cohesin subunit STAG2 is frequently inactivated by mutations in cancer.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...
