Replication stress and chromatin context link ATM activation to a role in DNA replication (2013)
Journal Article
Olcina, M. M., Foskolou, I. P., Anbalagan, S., Senra, J. M., Pires, I. M., Jiang, Y., Ryan, A. J., & Hammond, E. M. (2013). Replication stress and chromatin context link ATM activation to a role in DNA replication. Molecular cell, 52(5), 758-766. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.molcel.2013.10.019

ATM-mediated signaling in response to DNA damage is a barrier to tumorigenesis. Here we asked whether replication stress could also contribute to ATM signaling. We demonstrate that, in the absence of DNA damage, ATM responds to replication stress in... Read More about Replication stress and chromatin context link ATM activation to a role in DNA replication.

CH-01 is a hypoxia-activated prodrug that sensitizes cells to hypoxia/reoxygenation through inhibition of Chk1 and aurora A (2013)

The increased resistance of hypoxic cells to all forms of cancer therapy presents a major barrier to the successful treatment of most solid tumors. Inhibition of the essential kinase Checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1) has been described as a promising cancer...
