Gene silencing of translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) by siRNA inhibits cell growth and induces apoptosis of human prostate cancer cells
2 Apr 2009
Abstract excerpt
Translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) is a novel anti apoptotic protein which is highly expressed in several cancer cell types including prostate cancer. However, studies investigating the role of TCTP in prostate cancer are scarce. Therefore, in this study we evaluated the effect of small interference RNA (siRNA) based knocking down of TCTP gene in prostate cancer cells. Cell proliferation and...
