PARG inhibitor sensitivity correlates with accumulation of single-stranded DNA gaps in preclinical models of ovarian cancer. [PDF]
Poly (ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) is a dePARylating enzyme which promotes DNA repair by removal of poly (ADP-ribose) (PAR) from PARylated proteins. Loss or inhibition of PARG results in replication stress and sensitizes cancer cells to DNA-damaging agents.

Prospects for PARG inhibitors in cancer therapy. [PDF]
Abstract Poly(ADP-ribose) glycosylhydrolase (PARG) is an enzyme involved in hydrolyzing the ribose–ribose bonds present in poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR), which are primarily found in the nucleus. Along with poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, PARG regulates the level of PAR in cells, playing a crucial role in DNA maintenance and repair processes ...

Selective Loss of PARG Restores PARylation and Counteracts PARP Inhibitor-Mediated Synthetic Lethality [PDF]
Inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) polymerase (PARPi) have recently entered the clinic for the treatment of homologous recombination (HR)-deficient cancers. Despite the success of this approach, drug resistance is a clinical hurdle, and we poorly understand how cancer cells escape the deadly effects of PARPi without restoring the HR pathway.

Poly(ADP‐ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) is a key enzyme involved in poly(ADP‐ribose) (PAR) degradation and is considered a potential anticancer target. We previously investigated resistance mechanisms to the PARG inhibitor PDD00017273 in human colorectal ...

Radiosensitization with an inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase: A comparison with the PARP1/2/3 inhibitor olaparib [PDF]
Upon DNA binding the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase family of enzymes (PARPs) add multiple ADP-ribose subunits to themselves and other acceptor proteins.

Targeting SARS-CoV-2 Nsp3 macrodomain structure with insights from human poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) structures with inhibitors [PDF]
Arrival of the novel SARS-CoV-2 has launched a worldwide effort to identify both pre-approved and novel therapeutics targeting the viral proteome, highlighting the urgent need for efficient drug discovery strategies. Even with effective vaccines, infection is possible, and at-risk populations would benefit from effective drug compounds that reduce the ...

Mono‐galloyl glucose derivatives are potent poly(ADP‐ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) inhibitors and partially reduce PARP‐1‐dependent cell death [PDF]
Background and purpose:Maintenance of poly(ADP‐ribose) (PAR) polymers at homoeostatic levels by PAR glycohydrolase (PARG) is central in cell functioning and survival. Yet the pharmacological relevance of PARG inhibitors is still debated. Gallotannin, a complex mixture of hydrolysable tannins from oak gall, inhibits PARG but which of its constituents is

Intrinsic PARG inhibitor sensitivity is mimicked by TIMELESS haploinsufficiency and rescued by nucleoside supplementation. [PDF]
Abstract A subset of cancer cells are intrinsically sensitive to inhibitors targeting PARG, the poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase that degrades PAR chains. Sensitivity is accompanied by persistent DNA replication stress, and can be induced by inhibition of TIMELESS, a replisome accelerator.

PARP and PARG inhibitors in cancer treatment [PDF]
Oxidative and replication stress underlie genomic instability of cancer cells. Amplifying genomic instability through radiotherapy and chemotherapy has been a powerful but nonselective means of killing cancer cells. Precision medicine has revolutionized cancer therapy by putting forth the concept of selective targeting of cancer cells. Poly(ADP-ribose)
