A preliminary study on the synthetic lethal effect of berberine and olaparib on pancreatic cancer cells and its mechanism [PDF]
Pancreatic cancer is a kind of malignant tumor with high mortality rate. Early operation and late chemoradiotherapy are the treatment criteria, but the prognosis is still poor.

Aurora-A expressing tumour cells are deficient for homology-directed DNA double strand-break repair and sensitive to PARP inhibition. [PDF]
The protein kinase Aurora-A is a major regulator of the cell cycle that orchestrates mitotic entry and is required for the assembly of a functional mitotic spindle.

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 ...

Effects of alcohol and PARP inhibition on RNA ribosomal engagement in cortical excitatory neurons
We report on the effects of ethanol (EtOH) and Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition on RNA ribosomal engagement, as a proxy for protein translation, in prefrontal cortical (PFC) pyramidal neurons.

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 Inhibitors in Ovarian Cancer [PDF]
Treatment of Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC), historically based on surgery and platinum doublet chemotherapy, is associated with high risk of relapse and poor prognosis for recurrent disease. In this landscape, the innovative treatment with PARP inhibitors (PARPis) demonstrated an outstanding activity in EOC, and is currently changing clinical ...

PARP Inhibitors in Pancreatic Cancer
Abstract Despite representing only 5% of all annual cancer diagnoses in the United States, pancreatic cancer is projected to become the second leading cause of cancer-related death within the next 10 years. Progress in the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer has been slow.
