摘要:
As described herein, chromosomal missegregations, chromosomal micronuclei, cytosolic DNA, and combinations thereof are indicative of metastatic cancer. Methods and compositions are described herein that are useful for detection and treatment of patients with chromosomal instabilities such as chromosomal missegregations, chromosomal micronuclei, cytosolic DNA, and combinations thereof. For example, some of the methods and compositions include use of kinesin-13 proteins such as Kif2b, MCAK/Kif2c, or KIF13A. The methods and compositions can also include inhibitors of STING, ENPP1, cGAS, NF-kB transcription factor p52, NF-kB transcription factor RelB, or any combination thereof. Methods are also described for identifying compounds that are effective for treatment of cancer, including metastatic cancer.
