摘要:
The invention relates to compositions and methods for interfering with the DNA repair of double strand breaks (DSBs). The invention discloses novel double-stranded nucleic acid molecules that act as baits and hijack the holocomplex of enzymes responsible of DNA DSB sensing, signaling and/or repair pathways, in particular the non homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway of DSB repair. The invention discloses the use of these molecules as a standalone anticancer drug in an efficient amount to be introduced in the tumor cell nuclei in order to trigger their death.
