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.

Introduction Ataxia telangiectasia mutated and Rad3 Related (ATR) protein kinase is a key sensor of single-stranded DNA associated with stalled replication forks and repair intermediates generated during DNA repair. XRCC1 is a critical enzyme in sin... Read More about Ataxia telangiectasia mutated and Rad3 related (ATR) protein kinase inhibition is synthetically lethal in XRCC1 deficient ovarian cancer cells.
