Use of PARP Inhibitor in Cancer Cell Progression
Abstract: DNA damage response (DDR) is the cellular mechanism plays specific role of repairing during genotoxic injuries through specific mechanism of action. The DDR defects involve genomic instability and enhance tumor progression but when molecular alterations occurs in the cells become more susceptible to the pharmacological inhibition of the DNA repairing enzymes.Targeting cellular proteins like poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARPs) alters protein structure and function and favors molecular defects of the DDR process …
