Synthetic lethal interaction between WEE1 and PKMYT1 is a target for multiple low-dose treatment of high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma.

Ovarian cancer is driven by genetic alterations that necessitate protective DNA damage and replication stress responses through cell cycle control and genome maintenance. This creates specific vulnerabilities that may be exploited therapeutically. WEE1 kinase is a key cell cycle control kinase, and it has emerged as a promising cancer therapy target.

Identification of actin beta-like 2 (ACTBL2) as novel, upregulated protein in colorectal cancer.

Unlabelled: Early diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) can be of value for increasing the survival rate of patients. Recently, proteomic strategies to identify markers for the diagnosis of cancer at an early stage have been employed with noteworthy results. To extend these studies, we utilized two dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry for expression profiling of proteins extracted from the freshly frozen human colorectal cancer tissue specimens and the comparable regions of adjacent normal mucosa (serving as controls).
