ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides methods of identifying and/or detecting anti-cancer agents. The present invention provides methods of identifying and/or detecting compounds that can activate PARP and/or induce necrosis. The present invention also provides for methods of treating cancer in an individual. The present invention also provides kits for identifying and/or detecting anti-cancer agents.
