Abstract
The present invention is related to a method for inducing the cancer cell apoptosis or inhibiting the cancer cell migration by inhibiting the expression of ribose-5-phosphate isomerase A.
Claims5
A method for inducing the cancer cell apoptosis by the way of adding a siRNA to inhibiting the expression of ribose-5-phosphate isomerase A in said cancer cell, wherein said cancer cell is colon cancer cell or hepatic cancer cell.
A method for inhibiting the cancer cell migration by the way of adding a siRNA to inhibiting the expression of ribose-5-phosphate isomerase A in said cancer cell, wherein said cancer cell is colon cancer cell or hepatic cancer cell.
A method of enhancing the sensitivity of cancer cells to chemotherapeutic agents by the way of adding a siRNA to inhibiting the expression of ribose-5-phosphate isomerase A in said cancer cell, wherein said cancer cell is colon cancer cell or hepatic cancer cell.
