The potential role and application of PARP inhibitors in cancer treatment [PDF]
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.

PARP inhibition: a promising therapeutic target in ovarian cancer [PDF]
Ovarian cancer is burdened by the highest mortality rate among gynecological cancers. Gold standard is represented by the association of platinum-taxane -based chemotherapy and radical surgery.

Drosophila melanogaster as a model for understanding polyADP-ribosylation
PolyADP-ribosylation is a post-translational modification which is involved in various physiological processes including maintenance of genome stability through DNA repair, regulation of transcription, and development.

Update on Poly-ADP-ribose polymerase inhibition for ovarian cancer treatment [PDF]
Background: Despite standard treatment for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), that involves cytoreductive surgery followed by platinum-based chemotherapy, and initial high response rates to these, up to 80 % of patients experience relapses with a median ...

PARP inhibitors: the race is on [PDF]
Since the seminal publications in 2005 that demonstrated the exquisite sensitivity of BRCA1 and BRCA2 (BRCA1/2) mutant cell lines and xenografts to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition (Bryant et al, 2005; Farmer et al, 2005), the race has been on to exploit single-agent PARP inhibitors for clinical use through the concept of tumour-specific ...

Dibutyltin(IV) and Tributyltin(IV) Derivatives of meso-Tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphine Inhibit the Growth and the Migration of Human Melanoma Cells [PDF]
Melanoma is the most aggressive and deadly form of skin cancer, which is largely due to its propensity to metastasize. Therefore, with the aim to inhibit the growth and the metastatic dissemination of melanoma cells and to provide a novel treatment ...

Molecular Imaging of PARP [PDF]
The poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose)polymerase (PARP) family of enzymes is an important factor in the cellular DNA damage response and has gained much attention for its role in many diseases, particularly cancer. Targeted molecular imaging of PARP using fluorescent or radiolabeled tags has followed on the success of therapeutic inhibitors and gained ...
