Chromosomal instability is a driving force for heterogeneity within tumours. A recent study shows that boosting sister chromatid cohesion corrects chromosomal instability in pRB-deficient cancer cells. This key finding provides an important lead to make tumours more susceptible to anti-cancer drugs.
染色体不稳定是肿瘤内部异质性的驱动力。最近的一项研究表明,增强姐妹染色单体黏合可纠正 pRB 缺陷型癌细胞中的染色体不稳定。这一关键发现为提高肿瘤对癌症药物的敏感性提供了重要线索。
