DNA methylation is tightly regulated throughout mammalian development and altered methylation patterns are a hallmark of cancer. The methylcytosine dioxygenase TET2 is frequently mutated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and has been suggested to protect CpG islands and promoters from aberrant methyla...

One major class of anti-cancer drugs targets topoisomerase II to induce DNA double-strand breaks and cell death of fast growing cells. Here, we compare three members of this class - the antracyclines doxorubicin and aclarubicin, and a chemically unrelated compound, etoposide. Aclarubicin does not i...

We have studied the anti-cancer activities of antofine N-oxide isolated and purified from the medicinal plant Cynanchum vincetoxicum. The compound displays a strong cytotoxic effect on several solid tumor cell lines (glioblastoma, breast carcinoma and lung carcinoma) and on T-cell leukemia. It induc...

The G2 DNA damage checkpoint inhibits Cdc2 and mitotic entry through the dual regulation of Wee1 and Cdc25 by the Chk1 effector kinase. Up-regulation of Chk1 by mutation or overexpression bypasses the requirement for up-stream regulators or DNA damage to promote a G2 cell cycle arrest. We screened i...
