New Technique Quickly Tests Effects of Anticancer Drugs at Cellular Level

University of Zurich (UZH) scientists say they have developed a technique that makes it possible to quickly test various drugs at the cellular level. The method sheds light on the effects of anticancer drugs and the defense mechanisms of cancer cells, according to the researchers.The team uses cancer cell cultures to investigate the effects of PARP inhibitors, which make it difficult for these cells to replicate their DNA. They published their study (“ Analysis of PARP inhibitor toxic
