Excerpt

CTCF is a conserved, ubiquitous and multifunctional 11 Zn finger (ZF) transcription factor with features of a tumour suppressor. CTCF regulates transcription in diverse modes, such as promoter activation and repression, silencing, constitutive and methylation-dependent chromatin insulation. We have previously reported that CTCF can be post-translationally regulated by poly(ADPribosyl)ation and that this modification modulates the insulator function of CTCF [1, 2]. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the role of CTCF poly(ADPribosyl)ation in normal and breast cancer cells. …

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on antibody–drug conjugates in cancer

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel agents that have shown promise across multiple tumor types. Explore the current landscape of ADCs in breast and lung cancer with our experts, and gain insights into the mechanism of action, key clinical trials data, existing challenges, and future directions.
