Targeting DNA Damage Repair for Immune Checkpoint Inhibition: Mechanisms and Potential Clinical Applications

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
DNA damage repair (DDR) pathways play an essential role in maintaining genomic integrity. DDR dysfunction leads to accumulated DNA damage, predisposition to cancer, and high sensitivity to chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Germline and Somatic DNA Damage Repair Gene Mutations and Overall Survival in Metastatic Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Patients Treated with FOLFIRINOX [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a lethal cancer with lack of predictive biomarkers. We conducted a study to assess DNA damage repair (DDR) gene mutations as a predictive biomarker in PDAC patients treated with FOLFIRINOX ...

Studying DNA Double-Strand Break Repair: An Ever-Growing Toolbox [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
To ward off against the catastrophic consequences of persistent DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), eukaryotic cells have developed a set of complex signaling networks that detect these DNA lesions, orchestrate cell cycle checkpoints and ultimately lead to ...

DNA damage repair pathway alterations in metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma and implications on systemic therapy

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2020
Background Loss-of-function alterations in DNA damage repair (DDR) genes are associated with human tumorigenesis and may determine benefit from immune-oncology (I/O) agents as shown in colon cancer.

Dynamic differences between DNA damage repair responses in primary tumors and cell lines

open access: yesTranslational Oncology, 2021
The study of DNA damage repair response (DDR) in prostate cancer is restricted by the limited number of prostate cancer cell lines and lack of surrogates for heterogeneity in clinical samples.

Autophagy in DNA Damage Response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
DNA damage response (DDR) involves DNA repair, cell cycle regulation and apoptosis, but autophagy is also suggested to play a role in DDR. Autophagy can be activated in response to DNA-damaging agents, but the exact mechanism underlying this activation ...

The DDR is in [PDF]

open access: yesScience-Business eXchange, 2011
An international team looking to target subsets of squamous cell lung cancer has identified mutations in DDR2 that drive 3%–4% of cases. The researchers are aiming to start a Phase II trial with Bristol-Myers's Sprycel, a marketed kinase inhibitor that blocks DDR2.

Alteration of DNA Damage Response Causes Cleft Palate

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Cleft palate is one of the most common craniofacial birth defects, however, little is known about how changes in the DNA damage response (DDR) cause cleft palate.

Targeting ATM pathway for therapeutic intervention in cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated gene encodes the ATM protein, a key element in the DNA damage response (DDR) signalling pathway responsible for maintaining genomic integrity within the cell.

The DNA Damage Response Induced by Infection with Human Cytomegalovirus and Other Viruses

open access: yesViruses, 2014
Viruses use different strategies to overcome the host defense system. Recent studies have shown that viruses can induce DNA damage response (DDR).
