This project investigates the mechanisms behind cancer cell resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy drugs. By identifying genetic factors that affect DNA damage repair, it aims to enhance understanding of treatment responses and improve therapeutic strategies for cancer patients.
DNA damage-inducing platinum drugs, such as oxaliplatin and cisplatin, are used to treat about half of all patients receiving chemotherapy.
Although potentially very efficient, many patients develop resistance for yet unrecognized reasons.
Better understanding of the DNA damage response (DDR) to platinum-DNA lesions is therefore much needed for improving treatment outcomes.
By performing DDR-dedicated CRISPR/Cas9 knockout screens, the applicant has shown that some cancer cells deficient in the…
