© 2018 American Association for Cancer Research. Targeting PARP1 for synthetic lethality is a new strategy for breast cancers harboring germline mutations in BRCA. However, these mutations are rare, and reactivation of BRCA-mediated pathways may resu...

Efficacy of RNA polymerase II inhibitors in targeting dormant leukaemia cells (2013)
Journal Article
Pallis, M., Burrows, F., Whittall, A., Boddy, N., Seedhouse, C., & Russell, N. (2013). Efficacy of RNA polymerase II inhibitors in targeting dormant leukaemia cells. BMC Pharmacology and Toxicology, 14(June), Article 11. https://doi.org/10.1186/2050-6511-14-32

Background Dormant cells are characterised by low RNA synthesis. In contrast, cancer cells can be addicted to high RNA synthesis, including synthesis of survival molecules. We hypothesised that dormant cancer cells, already low in RNA, might be sens... Read More about Efficacy of RNA polymerase II inhibitors in targeting dormant leukaemia cells.
