Disclosed are methods of attenuating activity of the PME-1 gene. siRNAs or shRNAs are used to target against PME-1, thereby reducing the PME-1 mRNA. It is disclosed that the siRNAs or shRNAs targeted against PME-1 attenuate the epithelial to mesenchymal transition, thereby inhibit endometrial cancer development. A kit containing siRNA or shRNA reagents for attenuating the PME-1 gene expression is also disclosed.
公开了减弱 PME-1 基因活性的方法。使用 siRNAs 或 shRNAs 靶向 PME-1,从而减少 PME-1 mRNA。据公开,针对 PME-1 的 siRNAs 或 shRNAs 可减轻上皮向间充质的转化,从而抑制子宫内膜癌的发展。还公开了一种含有 siRNA 或 shRNA 试剂的试剂盒,用于减弱 PME-1 基因的表达。
