THZ531 Induces a State of BRCAness in Multiple Myeloma Cells: Synthetic Lethality with Combination Treatment of THZ 531 with DNA Repair Inhibitors. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci) - "Combination of THZ531 with either DNA-PK inhibitor (KU-0060648) or PARP inhibitor (Olaparib) led to synergistic cell death. In addition, combination treatment of THZ531 with Olaparib significantly reduced tumor burden in animal models. Our findings suggest that using a CDK12 inhibitor in combination with other DNA repair inhibitors may establish an effective therapeutic regimen to benefit myeloma patients."

Development of a CRISPR-Cas9 based luciferase turn-on system as non-homologous end joining pathway reporter. (PubMed, Chembiochem) - "Different known chemical inhibitors of the NHEJ pathway, such as NU7441, KU0060648, and KU55933, could significantly inhibit the bioluminescent signal generated by CRISPR-Cas9 targeting. In addition, we validated our system by high throughput sequencing."

PARP Inhibitor Olaparib Causes No Potentiation of the Bleomycin Effect in VERO Cells, Even in the Presence of Pooled ATM, DNA-PK, and LigIV Inhibitors. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci) - "Poly(ADP-ribosyl)polymerase (PARP) synthesizes poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR), which is anchored to proteins. A VERO subpopulation was resistant to BLEO, BLEO + OLA, and BLEO + OLA + ATM inhibitor KU55933 + DNA-PK inhibitor KU-0060648 + LigIV inhibitor SCR7 pyrazine. Regarding the mechanism(s) behind the resistance and lack of synthetic lethality, some hypotheses have been discarded and alternative hypotheses are suggested."
