Case Study
DNA repair with Glyco-SPOT
DNA repair with Glyco-SPOT Between UV rays, atmospheric pollution and oxidative stress, our genetic heritage is subject to damage which, if not repaired, leads to mutations that contribute to the aging process and the development of cancers. Bertin Pharma and LXRepair have developed Glyco-SPOT, a unique kit for measuring the enzymatic activities of DNA repair. LXRepair, a start-up supported by France’s Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA), has developed a unique method for characterizing DNA repair enzymes. A better understanding of these mechanisms will help clinicians to optimize treatments for cancers and will also point toward either completely new treatments or the improvement of existing approaches.
