Abstract:Introduction: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) plays a major role in DNA repair and PARP inhibitors (PARPi) have shown promise in pre-clinical studies for the treatment of Ewing sarcoma (ES). While a clinical trial using olaparib as a single agent failed to show significant response against ES, combination therapies with PARPi have emerged as an area of interest. Deacetylation of histones, controlled by histone deacetylases (HDACs) is a key regulatory event in DNA repair and inhibition of HDACs has been show… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
