Glutathione S-transferase P1-1 (GST P1) is an important drug target as it is implicated in drug resistance. GST P1-1 inhibitors are typically non-productive analogues of glutathione which covers broad chemical space; hence it is likely that several clinica ...
The RAD51-BRCA2 interaction is central to DNA repair through homologous recombination. Emerging evidence indicates RAD51 overexpression and its correlation with chemoresistance in various cancers, suggesting RAD51-BRCA2 inhibition as a compelling avenue fo ...
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. CRC deaths can be reduced with prevention and early diagnosis. Circulating tumor DNA-based liquid biopsies, are emerging tools for cancer detection. However, ...
The haem enzyme indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) catalyses the rate-limiting step in the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism and plays an essential role in immunity, neuronal function, and ageing. Expression of IDO1 in cancer cells results in t ...
We present a method for estimating several prognosis parameters for cancer survivors. The method utilizes the fact that these parameters solve differential equations driven by cumulative hazards. By expressing the parameters as solutions to differential eq ...
Stem cell-based in vitro models of embryonic development have been established over the last decade. Such model systems recapitulate aspects of gametogenesis, early embryonic development, or organogenesis. They enable experimental approaches that have not ...
In this issue of JEM, Varga et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20191515) describe a mouse model of invasive and metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) closely resembling the human consensus molecular subtype (CMS) 4 associated with the poorest overall surviva ...
