Disclosed herein are methods for identifying compounds that enhance base excision repair, as well as compounds identified thereby and methods of using such compounds in the interception of malignancy, i.e. the prevention of progression of a disease from a state of susceptibility to active disease. Exemplified compounds are acetohexamide and related compounds, as well as benserazide and analogs thereof. Exemplified malignancies are those of human breast cells carrying mutations, in particular, SUM149 cells and HCC1937 cells, which cells carry BRCA1 mutations.
本文公开了用于鉴定可增强碱基切除修复的化合物的方法,以及由此鉴定出的化合物和将此类化合物用于阻断恶性肿瘤的方法,即防止疾病从易感状态发展为活动性疾病的方法。示例化合物是乙酰己酰胺和相关化合物,以及苄丝肼及其类似物。示例性恶性肿瘤是携带突变的人类乳腺细胞,特别是携带 BRCA1 突变的 SUM149 细胞和 HCC1937 细胞。
