Why Human Papillomaviruses Activate the DNA Damage Response (DDR) and How Cellular and Viral Replication Persists in the Presence of DDR Signaling [PDF]
Human papillomaviruses (HPV) require the activation of the DNA damage response (DDR) in order to undergo a successful life cycle. This activation presents a challenge for the virus and the infected cell: how does viral and host replication proceed in the presence of a DDR that ordinarily arrests replication; and how do HPV16 infected cells retain the ...

The plant‐specific DDR factor SOG1 increases chromatin mobility in response to DNA damage [PDF]
Homologous recombination (HR) is a conservative DNA repair pathway in which intact homologous sequences are used as a template for repair. How the homology search happens in the crowded space of the cell nucleus is, however, still poorly understood. Here, we measure chromosome and double-strand break (DSB) site mobility in Arabidopsis thaliana, using ...

Mechanisms of the DNA damage response (DDR) are considered as useful targets to overcome tumor cell resistance. We investigated the impact of various classes of histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) (i.e. broad-spectrum HDACi (vorinostat), class I HDACi (entinostat), preferential class IIb HDAC6i (ricolinostat) and dual HDAC class I/IIb inhibitors ...

Triple kill: DDR inhibitors, radiotherapy and immunotherapy leave cancer cells with no escape
Radiotherapy (RT) has been widely used in the clinical treatment of cancers, but radiotherapy resistance (RR) leads to RT failure, tumor recurrence and metastasis.

Differential DNA Damage Response of Peripheral Blood Lymphocyte Populations
DNA damage occurs constantly in every cell triggered by endogenous processes of replication and metabolism, and external influences such as ionizing radiation and intercalating chemicals.

From yeast to humans: Understanding the biology of DNA Damage Response (DDR) kinases [PDF]
The DNA Damage Response (DDR) is a complex network of biological processes that protect cells from accumulating aberrant DNA structures, thereby maintaining genomic stability and, as a consequence, preventing the development of cancer and other diseases.

Not All DDRs Are Created Equal: Non-Canonical DNA Damage Responses [PDF]
It is commonly assumed that there is a single canonical DNA damage response (DDR) that protects cells from various types of double-strand breaks and that its activation occurs via recognition of DNA ends by the DDR machinery. Recent work suggests that both assumptions may be oversimplifications.

Determining the Potential of DNA Damage Response (DDR) Inhibitors in Cervical Cancer Therapy
Cisplatin-based chemo-radiotherapy (CRT) is the standard treatment for advanced cervical cancer (CC) but the response rate is poor (46–72%) and cisplatin is nephrotoxic. Therefore, better treatment of CC is urgently needed. We have directly compared, for the first time, the cytotoxicity of four DDR inhibitors (rucaparib/PARPi, VE-821/ATRi, PF-477736 ...

Chromatin Ubiquitination Guides DNA Double Strand Break Signaling and Repair
Chromatin is the context for all DNA-based molecular processes taking place in the cell nucleus. The initial chromatin structure at the site of the DNA damage determines both, lesion generation and subsequent activation of the DNA damage response (DDR ...
