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 ...

Novel modulators of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase [PDF]
The nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-1 has an important role in regulating cell death and cellular responses to DNA repair. Pharmacological inhibitors of PARP have entered clinical testing as cytoprotective agents in cardiovascular diseases and as adjunct antitumor therapeutics.

5mC-hydroxylase activity is influenced by the PARylation of TET1 enzyme [PDF]
5-hydroxymethylcytosine is a new epigenetic modification deriving from the oxidation of 5-methylcytosine by the TET hydroxylase enzymes. DNA hydroxymethylation drives DNA demethylation events and is involved in the control of gene expression ...

DNA repair deficiency biomarkers and the 70-gene ultra-high risk signature as predictors of veliparib/carboplatin response in the I-SPY 2 breast cancer trial. [PDF]
Veliparib combined with carboplatin (VC) was an experimental regimen evaluated in the biomarker-rich neoadjuvant I-SPY 2 trial for breast cancer. VC showed improved efficacy in the triple negative signature.

Inhibition of Poly(ADP-Ribose) polymerase enhances the toxicity of 131I-Metaiodobenzylguanidine/Topotecan combination therapy to cells and xenografts that express the noradrenaline transporter [PDF]
Targeted radiotherapy using [131I]meta-iodobenzylguanidine ([131I]MIBG) has produced remissions in some neuroblastoma patients. We previously reported that combining [131I]MIBG with the topoisomerase I (Topo-I) inhibitor topotecan induced long-term DNA ...

Poly(ADP‐Ribose) Polymerase in Plant Nuclei [PDF]
We show that poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase is present in maize, pea and wheat nuclei. We have identified the enzyme product as poly(ADP‐ribose) by purification and electrophoresis on a DNA sequencing gel. This reveals a polymer ladder consisting of up to 45 residues. The polymer product from maize, after digestion with snake venom phosphodiesterase, gave

Pyridazine Based Compounds with PARP-1 Inhibitory Activity
Pyridazine-containing compounds have been identified as potent PARP1 inhibitors. The PARP is a family of enzymes essential for many cellular processes such as DNA repair, genomic stability, and apoptosis, also known as poly(ADP-ribose) synthetases and ...

Poly(ADP) ribose polymerase (PARP) activity promotes, but is not required for, chromosome break repair by polymerase theta-mediated end joining (TMEJ). PARP activity promotes TMEJ by stimulating resection, a process that controls pathway choice.
