Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we revealed novel function of a DNA repair gene TDP1 (tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase) that is involved in the repair of DNA damages induced by irradiation and chemotherapy. Our findings would lead to a novel strategy to overcome cancers, because the combination of irradiation or chemotherapy in TDP1 deficient cancer cells or TDP1 inhibitors (under development) would augment the cytotoxicity of the treatment. Furthermore, we have discovered a novel mechanism of action for PARP inhibitors, recently developed anti-cancer agents. Although PARP inhibitors with highly catalytic PARP inhibition tend to be considered equivalent, we found that the potency of the new mechanism of action named “PARP-trapping” is markedly (more than 1,000 folds) different among five clinical PARP inhibitors and that the PARP-trapping potency corresponds to the cytotoxicity of each drug. We also revised the strategy of drug combination with PARP inhibitors based on the new mechanisms.
