Ectopic Doublecortin Gene Expression Suppresses the Malignant Phenotype in Glioblastoma Cells

Abstract excerpt

Doublecortin (DCX) is one of the three genes found from Affymetrix gene chip analysis related to glioma patient survival. Two other genes (e.g., osteonectin and semaphorin 3B) are well characterized as antioncogenic and tumor suppressor genes. However, there is no report about the involvement of DCX in cancer. Here, we show that gene transfer technology into DCX-deficient glioblastoma cell lines, such as A172,...
