Glioblastoma multiforme is the most common and most detrimental form of brain tumor, with a current survival time of as little as 14 months. We have recently identified a novel mechanism of therapeutic resistance based on overexpression of the polyamine catabolic enzyme spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase, which promotes DNA repair via chromatin modification.
多形性胶质母细胞瘤是最常见且最具危害性的脑肿瘤形式,目前的生存时间短至仅14个月。我们最近发现了一种基于多胺分解代谢酶亚精胺/精胺N1 - 乙酰转移酶过表达的治疗耐药新机制,该酶通过染色质修饰促进DNA修复。
