Abstract
In alternative embodiments, provided are compositions, including products of manufacture and kits, and methods, for treating or ameliorating a cancer by inhibiting expression or activity of Mouse Double Minute 2 homolog (MDM2), an APOBEC3G (A3G) protein, message (mRNA) or gene, and/or an ADAR1p150 protein, message (mRNA) or gene, e.g., by increasing the presence of in a cell or adding to a cell a molecule inhibitory to MDM2, APOBEC3G and/or ADAR1p150 expression, such as an miRNA that binds to MDM2, APOBEC3G and/or ADAR1p150 transcripts, or any molecule that can inhibit or destabilize the transcripts, resulting in decreased MDM2, APOBEC3G and/or ADAR1p150 expression, to treat a cancer such as leukemia, e.g., by inhibiting the propagation of a cancer cell, a leukemia cell, a leukemia stem cell (LSC) or a pre-leukemia cell stem cell (pre-LSC).
