Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine human adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas of the lung show overexpression of Alkbh3 and the percentage of cells positive for Alkbh3 also correlates statistically to recurrence-free survival in adenocarcinoma. Knockdown of Alkbh3 by siRNA transfection induces expression of p21WAF1/Cip1 and p27Kip1 in the human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A-549, resulting in cell cycle arrest, senescence and strong suppression of cell growth in vitro. In vivo, peritoneal tumour growth and dissemination is inhibited in nude mice, previously inoculated with the A-549 cell line, by intraperitoneal injection of Alkbh3 siRNA plus atelocollagen Homo sapiens
