Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided are RNA inhibitory molecules, particularly siRNA molecules silencing the expression of Voltage-Dependent Ion Chanel-1 (VDAC1) for the induction of cancer stem cell differentiation and reduction of TAMs abundance and tumor angiogenesis, thereby preventing tumor invention and recurrence.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for inducing the transition of a cancer stem cell and/or quasi differentiated cancer cell to a differentiated cell, the method comprising administrating to, or expressing in the cancer stem cell or quasi differentiated cancer cell an effective amount of a voltage dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1)-silencing oligonucleotide, comprising the nucleic acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:3 and a complementary sequence thereto. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer stem cell and/or quasi differentiated cancer cell form part of a tumor of a subject. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer stem cell and/or quasi differentiated cancer cell is within a cell or tissue culture.
