High-grade serous ovarian cancers (HGS-OvCa) frequently develop chemotherapy resistance; therefore, identification of novel therapies for the treatment of chemotherapy-resistant tumors remains an unmet need.
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS, also known as endotoxin) in Gram-negative bacteria is critical for the bacterial survival and their resistance to antibiotics.
The Finley lab, in a recent publication in Science, found that a mutation in the murine Ube2o gene, which encodes an ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme induced during erythropoiesis, results in anemia.
