Magnetic-Driven Hydrogel Microrobots Selectively Enhance Synthetic Lethality in MTAP-Deleted Osteosarcoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Background: Drugs based on synthetic lethality have advantages such as inhibiting tumor growth and affecting normal tissue in vivo. However, specific targets for osteosarcoma have not been acknowledged yet.

Synthetic Lethality through the Lens of Medicinal Chemistry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Personalized medicine and therapies represent the goal of modern medicine, as drug discovery strives to move away from one-cure-for-all and makes use of the various targets and biomarkers within differing disease areas.

Metabolic synthetic lethality in cancer therapy

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2017
Our understanding of cancer has recently seen a major paradigm shift resulting in it being viewed as a metabolic disorder, and altered cellular metabolism being recognised as a hallmark of cancer. This concept was spurred by the findings that the oncogenic mutations driving tumorigenesis induce a reprogramming of cancer cell metabolism that is required

Defeat mutant KRAS with synthetic lethality [PDF]

open access: yesSmall GTPases, 2016
Ras proteins are considered as the founding members of a large superfamily of small GTPases that control fundamental cellular functions. Mutationally activated RAS genes were discovered in human cancer cells more than 3 decades ago, but intensive efforts on Ras structure, biochemistry, function and signaling continue even now.

Overcoming selection bias in synthetic lethality prediction

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2022
AbstractMotivationSynthetic lethality (SL) between two genes occurs when simultaneous loss of function leads to cell death. This holds great promise for developing anti-cancer therapeutics that target synthetic lethal pairs of endogenously disrupted genes. Identifying novel SL relationships through exhaustive experimental screens is challenging, due to

Evidence that synthetic lethality underlies the mutual exclusivity of oncogenic KRAS and EGFR mutations in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Human lung adenocarcinomas (LUAD) contain mutations in EGFR in ∼15% of cases and in KRAS in ∼30%, yet no individual adenocarcinoma appears to carry activating mutations in both genes, a finding we have confirmed by re-analysis of data from over 600 LUAD.

The underlying mechanism for the PARP and BRCA synthetic lethality: Clearing up the misunderstandings

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2011
Poly (ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors effectively kill tumours defective in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes through the concept of synthetic lethality. It is suggested that PARP inhibitors cause an increase in DNA single‐strand breaks (SSBs), which are

Increased H+ efflux is sufficient to induce dysplasia and necessary for viability with oncogene expression

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Intracellular pH (pHi) dynamics is increasingly recognized as an important regulator of a range of normal and pathological cell behaviors. Notably, increased pHi is now acknowledged as a conserved characteristic of cancers and in cell models is confirmed
