P ARP-l inhibitors enhance DNA topoisomerase I (Topo I) poison-induced cytotoxicity and anti-tumour activity in vitro and in vivo but the underlying mechanism has not been defined. Two hypotheses have been proposed to explain this a) PARP-I modulates topo I activity via poly(ADP-ribosylation), or b)...
