Search for Synthetic-Essential Genes Uncovers Prostate Cancer Treatment Target
A new method has been found for identifying therapeutic targets in cancers lacking specific key tumor suppressor genes. The process, which located a genetic site for the most common form of prostate cancer, has potential for developing precision therapy for other cancers, such as breast, brain, and colorectal, say researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. Study results appeared February 6 in the journal Nature, in an article entitled, “Synthetic Essentiality of Chro -
