High Concordance of Different Assays in the Determination of Homologous Recombination Deficiency–Associated Genomic Instability in Ovarian Cancer

High Concordance of Different Assays in the Determination of Homologous Recombination Deficiency–Associated Genomic Instability in Ovarian Cancer

Ovarian cancer is one of the most common and deadly tumor types in women. In recent years, Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) have shown encouraging clinical results in the treatment of ovarian cancer. Numerous studies have found that patients with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) benefit more from PARPi treatment. Therefore, ...

Restoration of Neuronal Progenitors by Partial Reprogramming in the Aged Neurogenic Niche

Scientific Research Report Background Introduction For a long time, aging has been considered an irreversible process. However, recent research suggests that aging is a biological process that can be regulated. Various interventions have been shown to delay or even reverse certain characteristics of aging. Partial reprogramming is a method that rev...
