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.
