Targeting Transcription Factors for Cancer Gene Therapy

Abstract excerpt

A high proportion of oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes encode transcription factors. Deregulated expression or activation and inactivation of transcription factors as well as mutations and translocations play critical roles in tumorigenesis. Furthermore, the majority of oncogenic signaling pathways converge on sets of transcription factors that ultimately control gene expression patterns resulting in tumor...
