Notes

Lu [27]

Pancreatic Cancer

Inhibitors of stathmin expression

mRNA downregulation

Knockdown of stathmin significantly reduces pancreatic cancer cell viability, colony formation. Furthermore, silence of stathmin retards pancreatic tumor growth in nude mice

Machado-Neto [29]

Leukemia

siRNA

mRNA downregulation

Stathmin silencing in U937 and Namalwa leukemia cells reduces cell proliferation and clonogenicity

Wu [60]

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma

siRNA

mRNA downregulation

The siRNA-mediated silencing of stathmin suppresses proliferation, invasion and metastasis, and induces apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells

Miceli [48]

Breast cancer

Ribozyme

mRNA downregulation

Adenovirus-mediated gene transfer of anti-stathmin ribozyme inhibits proliferation and clonogenicity in both ER-positive and ER-negative breast cancer cells

Wang [77]

siRNA

mRNA downregulation

Knockdown of stathmin attenuates down-regulation of miR-101-mediated enhancement of cell growth and metastasis

Long [55]

shRNA

mRNA downregulation

Stathmin promoter-driving Aurora A shRNA adenoviral system has a potential use, which acts as adjuvant tumor-specific therapy method, in treatment of human breast carcinomas

Nie [3]

Lung cancer

siRNA

mRNA downregulation

Knockdown of stathmin in lung cancer cells results in a decrease in cellular proliferation and invasion

Yuan [54]

Monoclonal antibodies

Protein downregulation

Monoclonal antibodies against stathmin inhibit proliferation of human lung carcinoma QG-56 cells and result in a significantly higher apoptosis rate

Hsieh [4]

Hepatoma

siRNA

mRNA downregulation

Silencing of stathmin expression via RNA interference suppresses invasion activity, while ectopic expression of stathmin enhances cell invasion and caused polyploidy of cells

Wang [16]

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

shRNA-transfected

mRNA downregulation

Flow cytometry and mitotic index assays show that knockdown of stathmin in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma Eca109 and TE-1 cells leads leads to cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase

Liu [13]

siRNA

mRNA downregulation

Knockdown of stathmin with siRNA impairs cell migration in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma KYSE30 and KYSE410 cells

Wang [14]

shRNA plasmid

mRNA downregulation

Down-regulation of stathmin significantly inhibits cell proliferation, cell migration in vitro, and tumorigenicity in vivo

Machado-Neto [62]

Myeloproliferative neoplasms

siRNA

mRNA downregulation

Silencing of stathmin significantly reduces cell proliferation and clonal growth, and increases apoptosis induced by ruxolitinib

Mitra [86]

Retinoblastoma

Short interfering RNA

mRNA downregulation

Short interfering RNA-mediated transient stathmin down-regulation results in a marked inhibition of retinoblastoma cell proliferation and cell invasion in vitro

He [33]

Endometrial carcinoma

siRNA

mRNA downregulation

Knockdown of stathmin inhibits endometrial carcinoma cell aggressive behaviors.

Liu [25]

Gastric cancer

Antisense

oligodeoxynucleotide

mRNA downregulation

Stathmin transfected by antisense oligodeoxynucleotide significantly inhibits proliferation of gastric cancer SGC 7901 cells

Akhtar [91]

shRNA

mRNA downregulation

Stathmin shRNA-treated tumors are significantly regressed as compared with that of the tumor injected with non-silencing shRNA, proposing a potential use of local injection of lentivirus-delivered shRNA for the treatment of early localized human gastric carcinoma

Akhtar [90]

 

siRNA

mRNA downregulation

Lentiviral-mediated RNA interference targeting stathmin gene in human gastric cancer cells inhibits proliferation in vitro and tumor growth in vivo

Hemdan [36]

Bladder cancer

siRNA

mRNA downregulation

Growth and migration of urinary bladder cancer cell line T24 cells are significantly reduced by stathmin-siRNA

Dong [89]

Glioma

siRNA

mRNA downregulation

When down-regulation of stathmin, cell viability of glioma is reduced, apoptosis rate increases and migration of vascular endothelial cells is suppressed significantly
