  • Publication number: 20240240178
    Abstract: The invention provides siRNA compositions for inhibiting gene expression in targeted cells. A multi-targeting siR-NA-aptamer platform is provided that is efficiently delivered and is processed by cellular RNAi machinery to produce one, two or more siRNAs. Methods of using the multi-targeting siRNA-aptamer for selectively targeting cancer cells to downregulate the expression of multiple genes are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20050196796
    Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods of using the EPHB2 gene or its related signaling pathways to detect, prognosticate, assess the risk of, prevent, or treat cancers. Cancers amenable to the present invention include, but are not limited to, prostate cancer, breast cancer, and neuroblastoma. In one aspect, the present invention provides compositions which comprise an agent capable of eradicating or alleviating an abnormality in the EPHB2 gene or its related signaling pathways. This abnormality may cause or contribute to the development or progression of cancers. In another aspect, the present invention provides methods comprising detecting an abnormality in the EPHB2 gene or its related signaling pathways. The presence or absence of such an abnormality is indicative of the risk or disease status of cancer in a person of interest.
