BRCA2 Protects RAD51 from PARP1 Retention
2026-09-21
The reference study identifies a previously unrecognized function of BRCA2: protecting RAD51 filaments from destabilization caused by PARP inhibitor-induced PARP1 retention on resected DNA. By combining biochemical reconstitution, single-molecule FRET, strand-exchange assays, and cellular localization microscopy, the work clarifies how BRCA2 status can influence responses to PARP inhibition and informs DNA repair deficiency targeting.

Anlotinib and Multitarget Angiogenesis Inhibition
2026-09-20
The reference study shows that anlotinib suppresses angiogenesis by jointly inhibiting VEGFR2, PDGFRβ, and FGFR1 and their downstream ERK signaling. Its combination of endothelial-cell assays, ex vivo vessel sprouting models, and the chicken chorioallantoic membrane system provides a useful framework for evaluating multi-pathway anti-angiogenic compounds in cancer research.

CF10–EdU Synergy Drives Telomere Attrition in CRC
2026-09-19
A 2026 NAR Molecular Medicine study shows that the fluoropyrimidine polymer CF10 strongly synergizes with EdU in colorectal cancer cells, whereas EdU plus 5FU is only additive. The combination increases EdU incorporation, DNA double-strand breaks, telomere signal loss, cell-cycle arrest, and mitotic catastrophe, defining a mechanism that links thymidylate stress to acute telomere dysfunction.

Patient-Derived Gastric Cancer Assembloids
2026-09-17
Shapira-Netanelov and colleagues developed a patient-derived gastric cancer assembloid system that combines matched tumor organoids with stromal subpopulations from the same tumor. The model reproduced clinically relevant tumor–stroma interactions and showed that stromal composition can reshape gene expression and drug sensitivity, supporting more realistic personalized drug testing.
