4.Livin and Urological Malignancy, related research and progress
Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2014;(7):772-776
Oncogenesis is a sophisticated process which is polygenic , multi-stage,and multi-step.Livin as an apoptosis inhibi-ting factor , is one of the members of apoptosis inhibiting factor family , it expresses highly in many tumor tissues , and is closely related to the occurrence and development of urological tumor .Tumor growth can be inhibited by interfering the expression of Livin in tumor tis-sue,which will reduce the resistance to apoptosis and increase the rate of cell apoptosis .In recent years , more and more attention was paid to the studies of Livin on gene targeting therapy .Further research of Livin might provide new ideas for the early diagnosis , clinical treatment and evaluation of prognosis of tumor .
