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)

Role of PARylation and PTEN Mutation on PARP and PARG Inhibitor Efficacy on Glioblastoma [PDF]
Abstract Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive primary adult brain tumor, with a median survival of approximately 15 months. Despite novel therapeutic approaches, median survival has remained largely unchanged since the standard of care therapy for GBM was established nearly 15 years ago.

Poly(ADP-ribosylation) is present in murine sciatic nerve fibers and is altered in a Charcot-Marie-Tooth-1E neurodegenerative model [PDF]
Background Poly-ADP-ribose (PAR) is a polymer synthesized by poly-ADP-ribose polymerases (PARPs) as a postranslational protein modification and catabolized mainly by poly-ADP-ribose glycohydrolase (PARG).

Posttranscriptional Regulation of PARG mRNA by HuR Facilitates DNA Repair and Resistance to PARP Inhibitors [PDF]
Abstract The majority of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC) rely on the mRNA stability factor HuR (ELAV-L1) to drive cancer growth and progression. Here, we show that CRISPR-Cas9–mediated silencing of the HuR locus increases the relative sensitivity of PDAC cells to PARP inhibitors (PARPi).

Unrestrained poly-ADP-ribosylation provides insights into chromatin regulation and human disease [PDF]
ARH3/ADPRHL2 and PARG are the primary enzymes reversing ADP-ribosylation in vertebrates, yet their functions in vivo remain unclear. ARH3 is the only hydrolase able to remove serine-linked mono(ADP-ribose) (MAR) but is much less efficient than PARG ...

PARP and PARG Inhibitors—New Therapeutic Targets in Cancer Treatment
Today, the number of cancer patients throughout the world is increasing alarmingly and as per the World Health Organisation (WHO) data and statistics the prediction for the year 2020 will be 15 million new cases as compared to only 10 million cases in year 2000 leaving us dumbfounded.

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.

In Vivo Level of Poly(ADP-ribose)
PolyADP-ribosylation is a post-translational modification that plays key roles in cellular physiological functions and DNA damage responses. PolyADP-ribosylation is finely and dynamically regulated by various enzymes and factors involved in the synthesis
