Abstract excerpt
AU-rich element-binding proteins (ARE-BP) regulate the stability and/or translational efficiency of mRNAs containing cognate binding sites. Many targeted transcripts encode factors that control processes such as cell division, apoptosis, and angiogenesis, suggesting that dysregulated ARE-BP expression could dramatically influence oncogenic phenotypes. Using several approaches, we evaluated the expression of four...
