A20/TNFAIP3 Regulates the DNA Damage Response and Mediates Tumor Cell Resistance to DNA-Damaging Therapy

A competent DNA damage response (DDR) helps prevent cancer, but once cancer has arisen, DDR can blunt the efficacy of chemotherapy and radiotherapy that cause lethal DNA breakage in cancer cells. Thus, blocking DDR may improve the efficacy of these modalities. Here, we report a new DDR mechanism that interfaces with inflammatory signaling and might be blocked to improve anticancer outcomes. Specifically, we report that the ubiquitin-editing...
