    Markers associated with genomic instability, immunogenicity and immune therapy responsiveness in Metaplastic carcinoma of the breast: Expression of γH2AX, pRPA2, P53, PD-L1 and tumor infiltrating lymphocytes in 76 cases

    Metaplastic breast cancer (MpBC) is an aggressive subtype of breast carcinoma that is often resistant to conventional chemotherapy. Therefore, novel treatment strategies are urgently needed. Immune check point...

    Tumors overexpressing RNF168 show altered DNA repair and responses to genotoxic treatments, genomic instability and resistance to proteotoxic stress

    Chromatin DNA damage response (DDR) is orchestrated by the E3 ubiquitin ligase ring finger protein 168 (RNF168), resulting in ubiquitin-dependent recruitment of DDR factors and tumor suppressors breast cancer ...

    Immortalised breast epithelia survive prolonged DNA replication stress and return to cycle from a senescent-like state

    Mammalian cells have mechanisms to counteract the effects of metabolic and exogenous stresses, many of that would be mutagenic if ignored. Damage arising during DNA replication is a major source of mutagenesis...

    The DNA damage checkpoint precedes activation of ARF in response to escalating oncogenic stress during tumorigenesis

    Oncogenic stimuli trigger the DNA damage response (DDR) and induction of the alternative reading frame (ARF) tumor suppressor, both of which can activate the p53 pathway and provide intrinsic barriers to tumor...

    A high resolution genomic portrait of bladder cancer: correlation between genomic aberrations and the DNA damage response

    One major challenge in cancer research is to understand the complex interplay between the DNA damage response (DDR), genomic integrity, and tumor development. To address these issues, we analyzed 43 bladder tu...

    Replication stress and oxidative damage contribute to aberrant constitutive activation of DNA damage signalling in human gliomas

    Malignant gliomas, the deadliest of brain neoplasms, show rampant genetic instability and resistance to genotoxic therapies, implicating potentially aberrant DNA damage response (DDR) in glioma pathogenesis an...
