Untangling the clinicopathological significance of MRE11-RAD50-NBS1 complex in sporadic breast cancers (2021)
Journal Article
Alblihy, A., Shoqafi, A., Toss, M. S., Algethami, M., Harris, A. E., Jeyapalan, J. N., …Madhusudan, S. (2021). Untangling the clinicopathological significance of MRE11-RAD50-NBS1 complex in sporadic breast cancers. npj Breast Cancer, 7(1), 1-10. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41523-021-00350-5

The MRE11–RAD50–NBS1 (MRN) complex is critical for genomic stability. Although germline mutations in MRN may increase breast cancer susceptibility, such mutations are extremely rare. Here, we have conducted a comprehensive clinicopathological study o... Read More about Untangling the clinicopathological significance of MRE11-RAD50-NBS1 complex in sporadic breast cancers.

Ligase 1 is a predictor of platinum resistance and its blockade is synthetically lethal in XRCC1 deficient epithelial ovarian cancers (2021)
Journal Article
Ali, R., Alabdullah, M., Algethami, M., Alblihy, A., Miligy, I., Shoqafi, A., …Madhusudan, S. (2021). Ligase 1 is a predictor of platinum resistance and its blockade is synthetically lethal in XRCC1 deficient epithelial ovarian cancers. Theranostics, 11(17), 8350-8361. https://doi.org/10.7150/thno.51456

Rationale: The human ligases (LIG1, LIG3 and LIG4) are essential for the maintenance of genomic integrity by catalysing the formation of phosphodiester bonds between adjacent 5'-phosphoryl and 3'-hydroxyl termini at single and double strand breaks in...

Clinicopathological and Functional Evaluation Reveal NBS1 as a Predictor of Platinum Resistance in Epithelial Ovarian Cancers (2021)
Journal Article
Alblihy, A., Alabdullah, M. L., Ali, R., Algethami, M., Toss, M. S., Mongan, N. P., …Madhusudan, S. (2021). Clinicopathological and Functional Evaluation Reveal NBS1 as a Predictor of Platinum Resistance in Epithelial Ovarian Cancers. Biomedicines, 9(1), Article 56. https://doi.org/10.3390/biomedicines9010056

Platinum resistance seriously impacts on the survival outcomes of patients with ovarian cancers. Platinum-induced DNA damage is processed through DNA repair. NBS1 is a key DNA repair protein. Here, we evaluated the role of NBS1 in ovarian cancers. NB...
