Purpose: Loss or dysfunction of tumor suppressor RB is a common feature of various tumors,and it contributes to cancer cell stemness and drug resistance.However,the strategy to suppress or eliminate Rb deficient tumor cells remains unclear.Experimental design: We accidentally found that acute depletion of DNA replication licensing factor MCM7 was able to induce more apoptosis in RB deficient tumor cells than in RB proficient cells.
