Advances in DNA Repair in Cancer Therapy

This book deals with the emerging role of various DNA repair proteins and the regulatory elements which are implicated in cancer therapy such as DNA cross-linking agents, radiotherapy and bleomycin.� The DNA repair genes discussed include those involved in BRCA/Rad51-related homologous recombination...

520 # # |a This book deals with the emerging role of various DNA repair proteins and the regulatory elements which are implicated in cancer therapy such as DNA cross-linking agents, radiotherapy and bleomycin.� The DNA repair genes discussed include those involved in BRCA/Rad51-related homologous recombinational repair, DNA-PK related nonhomologous endjoining and the nucleotide excision repair gene, ERCC1.� Moreover, the role of regulatory genes such as PARP, ATR, telomerase, growth factor receptors and downstream kinase signalling �is examined.
