RAD50 deficiency is a predictor of platinum sensitivity in sporadic epithelial ovarian cancers (2020)
Journal Article
Alblihy, A., Alabdullah, M. L., Toss, M. S., Algethami, M., Mongan, N. P., Rakha, E. A., & Madhusudan, S. (2020). RAD50 deficiency is a predictor of platinum sensitivity in sporadic epithelial ovarian cancers. Molecular Biomedicine, 1(1), Article 19. https://doi.org/10.1186/s43556-020-00023-y

Intrinsic or acquired resistance seriously limits the use of platinating agents in advanced epithelial ovarian cancers. Increased DNA repair capacity is a key route to platinum resistance. RAD50 is a critical component of the MRN complex, a ‘first re... Read More about RAD50 deficiency is a predictor of platinum sensitivity in sporadic epithelial ovarian cancers.

Werner Syndrome Protein Expression in Breast Cancer (2020)
Journal Article
Savva, C., Sadiq, M., Sheikh, O., Karim, S., Trivedi, S., Green, A. R., …Arora, A. (2021). Werner Syndrome Protein Expression in Breast Cancer. Clinical Breast Cancer, 21(1), 57-73.E7. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.clbc.2020.07.013

Introduction Werner protein (WRN) plays an important role in DNA repair, replication, transcription, and consequently genomic stability via its DNA-helicase and exonuclease activity. Loss of function of WRN is associated with Werner syndrome (WS), w... Read More about Werner Syndrome Protein Expression in Breast Cancer.

XRCC1 deficient triple negative breast cancers are sensitive to ATR, ATM and Wee1 inhibitor either alone or in combination with olaparib (2020)
Journal Article
Ali, R., Alblihy, A., Toss, M. S., Algethami, M., Al Sunni, R., Green, A. R., …Madhusudan, S. (2020). XRCC1 deficient triple negative breast cancers are sensitive to ATR, ATM and Wee1 inhibitor either alone or in combination with olaparib. Therapeutic Advances in Medical Oncology, 12, 175883592097420. https://doi.org/10.1177/1758835920974201

Background: PARP inhibitor (PARPi) monotherapy is a new strategy in BRCA germ-line deficient triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, not all patients respond, and the development of resistance limits the use of PARPi monotherapy. Therefore, th...
