Open AccessClinical significance of p53 protein expression and TP53 variation status in colorectal cancer
In human colorectal cancer (CRC), TP53 is one of the most important driver genes. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) has been used most often to assess the variational status of TP53. Recently, next-generation sequencing...

Open AccessThe PARP inhibitor olaparib potentiates the effect of the DNA damaging agent doxorubicin in osteosarcoma
PARP1 facilitates the recovery of DNA-damaged cells by recruiting DNA damage response molecules such as γH2AX and BRCA1/2, and plays a role in resistance to antitumor therapies. Therefore, PARP inhibition bein...
