A call to ARMS: targeting the<i>PAX3-FOXO1</i>gene in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma
25 Feb 2013
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Expression of fusion oncoproteins generated by recurrent chromosomal translocations represents a major tumorigenic mechanism characteristic of multiple cancers, including one-third of all sarcomas. Oncogenic fusion genes provide novel targets for therapeutic intervention. The PAX3-FOXO1 oncoprotein in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) is presented as a paradigm to examine therapeutic strategies for...
