Cancer’s most notorious protein MYC quietly repairs the DNA damage chemo inflicts — block that trick and treatment could hit tumor cells far harder
Chemotherapy drugs like doxorubicin and etoposide work by snapping a cancer cell’s DNA in two. The breaks are supposed to be ...

Cancer’s most notorious protein MYC also quietly repairs tumor DNA damage — blocking the trick could make chemotherapy far deadlier to cells it targets
For decades, oncologists have watched a frustrating pattern repeat itself. Tumors fueled by the MYC protein, one of the most ...
Researchers found that cancer cells may repair chemotherapy-induced DNA damage, helping explain treatment resistance in ...
Scientists have uncovered a surprising new trick used by one of cancer’s most notorious proteins. MYC, already infamous for ...
Meet MYC, the shapeless protein responsible for making the majority of human cancer cases worse. UC Riverside researchers have found a way to rein it in, offering hope for a new era of treatments. In ...
A protein best known for driving cancer growth also helps damaged tumor cells survive by repairing their DNA, according to a ...
For decades, scientists have tried to stop cancer by disabling the mutated proteins that are found in tumors. But many cancers manage to overcome this and continue growing. Now, scientists think they ...
So, what insight are we left with? “On the highest level,” notes Dr. Eisenman, “this study really demonstrates that a single amino acid substitution in a single protein is enough to predispose the ...
The growth protein, MYC, was consistently found with RBM42, which spurs MYC production, in human pancreatic tumors. Above, microscopy for MYC (red) and RBM42 (green) in a representative pancreatic ...
