Analysis of Hypoxia-Related Gene Expression in Sarcomas and Effect of Hypoxia on RNA Interference of Vascular Endothelial Cell Growth Factor A
1 Jul 2005
Abstract excerpt
Vascular endothelial cell growth factor A (VEGF-A) and hypoxia play important roles in tumor angiogenesis. VEGF-A gene expression is up-regulated in tumors under hypoxic conditions, yet it is unclear how such up-regulation will affect the efficacy of RNA interference strategies targeting VEGF-A. Four potential short interfering RNA (siRNA) sequences for the VEGF-A gene were cloned into expression plasmids and...
