Antisense gapmers selectively suppress individual oncogenic p73 splice isoforms and inhibit tumor growth in vivo
11 Aug 2009
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Differential mRNA splicing and alternative promoter usage of the TP73 gene results in the expression of multiple NH2-truncated isoforms that act as oncogenes. Abundant levels of these p73 variants in a variety of human cancers correlated with adverse clinical prognosis and response failure to conventional therapies, underscoring their relevance as marker for disease severity and target for cancer...
