The most frequent DNA lesions (8-oxoguanine, thymine glycol, dihydrothymine, dU) (De Bont and van Larebeke, 2014) are removed from the genome by the BER (Kim and Wilson, 2012) (Figure 1). This repair ...

Effects of TKI on patients with non-small cell lung cancer of different stages: A meta-analysis. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2018 ASCO Annual Meeting I. This abstract does not include a ...

Damage to your DNA is unavoidable. Every day our cells are bombarded by gene-splitting UV radiation or chemical carcinogens. Regular water inside our bodies can cause DNA damage. DNA damage is as ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 103, No. 11 (Mar. 14, 2006), pp. 4056-4061 (6 pages) DNA-protein crosslinks are relatively common DNA lesions that ...

A researcher has made a discovery that alters our understanding of how the body's DNA repair process works and may lead to new chemotherapy treatments for cancer and other disorders. Researchers ...

The native structure of genomic DNA can be damaged in many ways, both by external agents and from within the cell as a consequence of normal metabolism In an effort to maintain their genomic integrity ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Base excision repair (BER) of DNA damage in irradiated THP1 human leukemic cells was stimulated by pretreating the cells with exogenous ...

Mitochondrial DNA has long been treated as a workhorse record of cellular history, but new research suggests it also hides a subtle and previously overlooked form of damage. By uncovering this cryptic ...

The ongoing fight of science against cancer has made great strides, but cancer cells have not made it easy. The complexity of cancer cells and their adaptive evolutionary nature complicate the search ...
