OGG1 Inhibitor O8 is a potent inhibitor of 8-Oxoguanine DNA Glycosylase-1 (OGG1), part of the DNA base excision repair (BER) pathway that is becoming a drug target for cancer therapy.
OGG1 Inhibitor O8 is a potent inhibitor of 8-Oxoguanine DNA Glycosylase-1 (OGG1), part of the DNA base excision repair (BER) pathway that is becoming a drug target for cancer therapy. OGG1 Inhibitor O8 has an IC50 value of 220 nM and >100-fold selectivity for OGG1 relative to several other DNA repair glycosylases. O8 acts through the inhibition of Schiff base formation during OGG1 catalysis. It does not prevent DNA binding of OGG1 to a 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxo-Gua)-containing substrate.

The DNA base excision repair (BER) pathway, which utilizes DNA glycosylases to initiate repair of specific DNA lesions, is the major pathway for the repair of DNA damage induced by oxidation, alkylation, and deamination. Early results from clinical trials suggest

Background: Oncogenic transformation is associated with elevated oxidative stress that promotes tumor progression but also renders cancer cells vulnerable to further oxidative insult. Agents that stimulate ROS generation or suppress antioxidant systems can drive oxidative pressure to toxic levels selectively

Interferons (IFNs) are secreted cytokines with the ability to activate expression of IFN stimulated genes that increase resistance of cells to virus infections. Activated transcription factors in conjunction with chromatin remodelers induce epigenetic changes that reprogram IFN responses. Unexpectedly, 8-oxoguanine

8-Oxoguanine DNA glycosylase1 (OGG1)-initiated base excision repair (BER) is the primary pathway to remove the pre-mutagenic 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) from DNA. Recent studies documented 8-oxoG serves as an epigenetic-like mark and OGG1 modulates gene expression in oxidatively stressed cells. For this
The primary cause of morbidity and mortality from infection with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the excessive innate immune response(s) (IIR) in which reactive oxygen species (ROS) play key role(s). However, the mechanisms for these processes are not fully understood.
