The RAD52 protein is a coveted drug target for precision oncology because while it is largely dispensable in healthy human cells, the protein is essential for survival of cancer cells that are deficient in DNA repair function, such as those with defective BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes

A study suggests that a viral infection such as influenza and SARS/CoV-2 can set off an inflammatory cascade that “wakes up” the sleeping cancer cells located in distant organs such as lungs and bone marrow, leading them to proliferate
