DNA topoisomerase II is involved in regulation of cyst wall protein genes and differentiation in Giardia lamblia. [PDF]
The protozoan Giardia lamblia differentiates into infectious cysts within the human intestinal tract for disease transmission. Expression of the cyst wall protein (cwp) genes increases with similar kinetics during encystation.

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 ...

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is relatively resistant to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Clear cell RCC (ccRCC) accounts for the majority of RCC, which have mutations or epigenetic silencing of the von Hippel–Lindau (VHL) gene.

Therapy Related Acute Promyelocytic Leukaemia (APML) in a Breast Cancer Survivor: Another Tale of an Ally Turned Adversary [PDF]
With an increase in the use of high dose chemotherapeutic regimens, higher cure rates and longer survival periods of cancer patients, the incidence of secondary malignancies are increasing.

MRE11 facilitates the removal of human topoisomerase II complexes from genomic DNA [PDF]
Topoisomerase II creates a double-strand break intermediate with topoisomerase covalently coupled to the DNA via a 5'-phosphotyrosyl bond. These intermediate complexes can become cytotoxic protein-DNA adducts and DSB repair at these lesions requires ...

A role for topoisomerase II alpha in chromosome damage in human cell lines [PDF]
Human response to ionising radiation (IR) shows a wide variation. This is most clearly seen in the radiation-response of cells as measured by frequencies of chromosomal aberrations.

The impact of the C-terminal domain on the interaction of human DNA topoisomerase II α and β with DNA [PDF]
<b>Background</b> Type II DNA topoisomerases are essential, ubiquitous enzymes that act to relieve topological problems arising in DNA from normal cellular activity.
