“…Interestingly, PARP has also been implicated in a slow alternative NHEJ pathway that is separate from the DNA-PK-dependent classical NHEJ (Audebert et al, 2004(Audebert et al, , 2008Wang et al, 2005Wang et al, , 2006Shrivastav et al, 2008;Terzoudi et al, 2008;Iliakis, 2009;Robert et al, 2009). This finding may further justify the use of PARPi in HR-deficient cancers, especially since the alternative NHEJ pathway may be enhanced in G2 (Wu et al, 2008).…”
