Targeted induction of endogenous NKX3‐1 by small activating RNA inhibits prostate tumor growth
8 Jul 2013
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: RNA activation (RNAa) is a small RNA-mediated gene regulation mechanism by which expression of a particular gene can be induced by targeting its promoter using small double-stranded RNA also known as small activating RNA (saRNA). We used saRNA as a molecular tool to examine NKX3-1's role as a tumor suppressor and tested in vitro and in vivo antitumor effects of NKX3-1 induction by saRNA. MATERIALS AND...
