Deskripsi
In this study, the authors show that that oncogenic hijacking of PRC1 sensitizes genomically stable Ewing sarcoma cells for PLK1 inhibition alone or in synergy with a microtubule-destabilizing drug via induction of cytokinesis defects, rendering PRC1 a promising, broadly applicable predictive biomarker
