Abstract excerpt
Melanoma differentiation-associated gene-7 (mda-7)/interleukin-24 (IL-24) has shown potent tumor cell apoptosis inducing capacity in multiple cancers. However, the apoptosis induction capacity of mda-7/IL-24 was low and directly correlated with the adhesion to tumor cells.Cell adhesion molecule integrin α(v)β(3) expressed on the surface of several types of solid tumor cells, and they bind to...
