María Natalia Gandur Quiroga: Mutations and DNA Structures Driving Bladder Cancer

María Natalia Gandur Quiroga recently shared a post on LinkedIn:

Study Uncovers Mutations and DNA Structures Driving Bladder Cancer.

  • New mutations and DNA structures drive bladder cancer, according to a study from Weill Cornell Medicine and the New York Genome Center.
  • APOBEC3 antiviral enzymes mutate DNA, triggering early-stage bladder cancer.
  • Cisplatin chemotherapy causes bursts of mutations, helping cancer cells resist treatment.
  • Extrachromosomal circular DNA (ecDNA) promotes therapy resistance in bladder cancer.
  • This study highlights new therapeutic strategies for a hard-to-treat cancer.”
