In specific hosts with high MCM2 expression levels which are genetically‐induced, such as C3H mice, hematopoietic cells show an apoptosis‐prone nature when the combination of viral infection and DNA‐damage occur.44, 45 Furthermore, these findings could also be used for therapies in which tumor cell apoptosis could be induced in tumors expressing high levels of MCM2, such as triple‐negative breast cancers and a fraction of ovarian cancers.45 This evidence concerns the gene MCM2 and neoplasm.
