OGG1 and MUTYH repair activities promote telomeric 8-oxoguanine induced senescence in human fibroblasts by Mariarosaria De Rosa, Ryan P. Barnes, Ariana C. Detwiler, Prasanth R. Nyalapatla, Peter Wipf, Patricia L. Opresko

“…Preventing BER initiation suppresses PARylation and confers resistance to the synergistic effects of PARP inhibitors on 8oxoG-induced senescence. However, OGG1 activity is essential for preserving cell growth after chronic telomeric 8oxoG formation, whereas MUTYH promotes senescence to prevent chromosomal instability from unrepaired damage. …”
