Topoisomerase I inhibitor, camptothecin, induces apoptogenic signaling in human embryonic stem cells

Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) need to maintain their genomic integrity in response to DNA damage to safeguard the integrity of the organism. DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) are one of the most lethal forms of DNA damage and, if not repaired correctly, they can lead to cell death, genomic instability a...
