Abstract
The present invention is drawn to therapeutics which can target hnRNP A18, a regulator of protein translation in cancer cells. The invention provides a method of treating cancer in a subject comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a composition that decreases the level and/or activity of heterogenous ribonucleoprotein A18 (hnRNP A18). The composition can comprise a nucleic acid molecule that binds to at least a portion of a nucleotide sequence coding for hnRNP A18. The invention also provides a composition for treating cancer comprising a nucleic acid or antibody that is capable of decreasing the level and/or activity of hnRNP A18 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The invention also provides methods of screening for an anti-cancer compound.
