Identification of metabolic changes leading to cancer susceptibility in Fanconi anemia cells.

Abstract Fanconi anemia (FA) is a chromosomal instability disorder of bone marrow associated with aplastic anemia, congenital abnormalities and a high risk of malignancies. The identification of more than two dozen FA genes has revealed a plethora of interacting proteins that are mainly involved in repair of DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICLs). Other important findings associated […]

Biosfer Teslab Collaborates in Cancer Studies
