Ectopic Expression of Interferon Regulatory Factor-1 Promotes Human Breast Cancer Cell Death and Results in Reduced Expression of Survivin
15 Nov 2004
Abstract excerpt
The overexpression of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein, survivin, may provide tumor cells with a distinct survival advantage in situ; hence, therapeutic strategies have been designed to inhibit its expression. In this study, we ectopically expressed the interferon regulatory factor (IRF)-1 protein in the breast carcinoma cell lines MDA-MB-468 and SK-BR-3 using a recombinant adenovirus (Ad-IRF-1). By screening...
