gene expression profiling for cancer targeted therapy
background : lung cancer is still the leading cause of cancer- related deaths and most of themâ are normally diagnosed in late stages, so there is an urgent need to establish reliable tools for the identification at early stages of the disease. in this study, we use an eleven gene signature test to examine lung biopsy specimens for diagnostic, prognostic & therapeutic purposes. methods : bronc...
متن کاملAn Enterovirus-Like RNA Construct for Colon Cancer Suicide Gene Therapy
Background: In gene therapy, the use of RNA molecules as therapeutic agents has shown advantages over plasmid DNA, including higher levels of safety. However, transient nature of RNA has been a major obstacle in application of RNA in gene therapy. Methods: Here, we used the internal ribosomal entry site of encephalomyocarditis virus and the 3’ non-translated region of Poliovirus to design an en...
متن کاملAnticancer gene transfer for cancer gene therapy.
Gene therapy vectors are among the treatments currently used to treat malignant tumors. Gene therapy vectors use a specific therapeutic transgene that causes death in cancer cells. In early attempts at gene therapy, therapeutic transgenes were driven by non-specific vectors which induced toxicity to normal cells in addition to the cancer cells. Recently, novel cancer specific viral vectors have...
متن کاملConditional gene targeting for cancer gene therapy.
Current treatment of solid tumors is limited by severe adverse effects, resulting in a narrow therapeutic index. Therefore, cancer gene therapy has emerged as a targeted approach that would significantly reduce undesired side effects in normal tissues. This approach requires a clear understanding of the molecular biology of both the malignant clone and the biological vectors that serve as vehic...
متن کاملGene Therapy for Oral Cancer
− New treatment approaches are needed to improve the effectiveness of oral cancer treatment, since surgical resection of the tumor in oral region causes various oral dysfunctions. The molecular biology of oral cancer has been progressively delineated. Concurrently, gene therapy techniques have been developed that allow targeting or replacement of dysfunctional genes in cancer cells, offering th...
