Homologous Recombination Deficiencies and Hereditary Tumors [PDF]
Homologous recombination (HR) is a vital process for repairing DNA double-strand breaks. Germline variants in the HR pathway, comprising at least 10 genes, such as BRCA1, BRCA2, ATM, BARD1, BRIP1, CHEK2, NBS1(NBN), PALB2, RAD51C, and RAD51D, lead to inherited susceptibility to specific types of cancers, including those of the breast, ovaries, prostate,

The progress and prospect of homologous recombination deficiency detection in clinical diagnosis and treatment of cancer [PDF]
Homologous recombination (HR) is the main way to repair DNA double-stranded breaks, single-stranded DNA gaps and stagnation or folding replication forks, helping to maintain telomeres and ensure the correct segregation of chromosomes during meiosis ...

Homologous Recombination Deficiency: Concepts, Definitions, and Assays [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundHomologous recombination deficiency (HRD) is a phenotype that is characterized by the inability of a cell to effectively repair DNA double-strand breaks using the homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway. Loss-of-function genes involved in this pathway can sensitize tumors to poly(adenosine diphosphate [ADP]-ribose) polymerase ...

Determinants of Homologous Recombination Deficiency in Pancreatic Cancer [PDF]
Pancreatic cancer is a treatment-resistant malignancy associated with high mortality. However, defective homologous recombination (HR), a DNA repair mechanism required for high-fidelity repair of double-strand DNA breaks, is a therapeutic vulnerability.

Unravelling homologous recombination repair deficiency and therapeutic opportunities in soft tissue and bone sarcoma [PDF]
Defects in homologous recombination repair (HRR) in tumors correlate with poor prognosis and metastases development. Determining HRR deficiency (HRD) is of major clinical relevance as it is associated with therapeutic vulnerabilities and remains poorly ...

Homologous Recombination Deficiency Detection Algorithms: A Systematic Review
Homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) can arise from germline or somatic pathogenic variants as well as other genomic damage and epigenetic alterations in the HR repair pathway. Patients with tumors presenting with an HRD phenotype can show sensitivity to Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPis).

Homologous recombination deficiency and ovarian cancer [PDF]
The discovery that PARP inhibitors block an essential pathway of DNA repair in cells harbouring a BRCA mutation has opened up a new therapeutic avenue for high-grade ovarian cancers. BRCA1 and BRCA2 proteins are essential for high-fidelity repair of double-strand breaks of DNA through the homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway. Deficiency in HRR

Homologous recombination proficiency in ovarian and breast cancer patients
Homologous recombination and DNA repair are important for genome maintenance. Genetic variations in essential homologous recombination genes, including BRCA1 and BRCA2 results in homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and can be a target for ...

Biomarkers for Homologous Recombination Deficiency in Cancer [PDF]
Defective DNA repair is a common hallmark of cancer. Homologous recombination is a DNA repair pathway of clinical interest due to the sensitivity of homologous recombination-deficient cells to poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors. The measurement of homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) in cancer is therefore vital to the appropriate design
