1 | Inhibition of p42 MAPK using a nonviral vector-delivered siRNA potentiates the anti-tumor effect of metformin in prostate cancer cells. | Metformin | mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 | Homo sapiens |
2 | AIMS: The aim of this work was to study if a G1-polyamidoamine dendrimer/siRNA dendriplex can remove the p42 MAPK protein in prostate cancer cells and to potentiate the anti-tumoral effect of the antidiabetic drug metformin and taxane docetaxel. | Metformin | mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 | Homo sapiens |
3 | RESULTS: The dendriplex siRNA/G1-polyamidoamine dendrimer decreased both p42 MAPK mRNA and protein levels by more than 80%, which potentiates the anti-tumoral effects of metformin. | Metformin | mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 | Homo sapiens |
