Are DNA repair factors promising biomarkers for personalized therapy in gastric cancer? (2013)
Journal Article
Abdel-Fatah, T., Arora, A., Gorguc, I., Abbotts, R., Beebeejaun, S., Storr, S. J., …Madhusudan, S. (2013). Are DNA repair factors promising biomarkers for personalized therapy in gastric cancer?. Antioxidants and Redox Signaling, 18(18), https://doi.org/10.1089/ars.2012.4873

Chronic inflammation is a driving force for gastric carcinogenesis. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated during the inflammatory process generates DNA damage that is processed through the DNA repair pathways. In this study, we profiled key DNA rep...
