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 |
