The DNA repair protein Cockayne syndrome group B (CSB) is frequently found overexpressed in cancer cells. High CSB levels favor tumor cell proliferation whilst inhibiting apoptosis. Conversely, the suppression of CSB has significant anticancer effects. In this manuscript we describe CSB downregulation as a potential new therapeutic approach in cancer.

Abstract

The DNA repair protein Cockayne syndrome group B (CSB) is frequently found overexpressed in cancer cells. High CSB levels favor tumor cell proliferation whilst inhibiting apoptosis. Conversely, the suppression of CSB has significant anticancer effects. In this manuscript we describe CSB downregulation as a potential new therapeutic approach in cancer.
