    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 ...

    IFNγ induces oxidative stress, DNA damage and tumor cell senescence via TGFβ/SMAD signaling-dependent induction of Nox4 and suppression of ANT2

    Cellular senescence provides a biological barrier against tumor progression, often associated with oncogene-induced replication and/or oxidative stress, cytokine production and DNA damage response (DDR), leadi...

    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...

    Cytokine expression and signaling in drug-induced cellular senescence

    Cellular senescence guards against cancer and modulates aging; however, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we show that genotoxic drugs capable of inducing premature senescence in normal...

    Potential role for concurrent abnormalities of the cyclin D1, p16CDKN2 and p15CDKN2B genes in certain B cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas. Functional studies in a cell line (Granta 519)

    Abnormalities of several cell-cycle regulatory genes including cyclin D1, p16CDKN2 and p15CDKN2B have been described in B cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (B-NHL). We describe a new B-NHL cell line (Granta 519), with ...
