Abstract
Isolated or purified oligonucleotides and isolated or purified morpholino oligomers; a method of detecting cancer or a predisposition to cancer in a mammal, comprising comparing the level of expression of Wip1 in the mammal to a control; a method of treating cancer in a mammal that expresses the same or a higher level of Wip1 as compared to a mammal of the same species that does not have cancer, comprising administering to the mammal a cancer-treating effective amount of a Wip1 inhibitor; a method of screening an oligonucleotide or morpholino oligomer for the ability to inhibit the expression of Wip1; a method of determining the efficacy with which a test oligonucleotide or morpholino oligomer inhibits Wip1 expression; a method of screening a compound for Wip1-inhibiting activity; and a method of determining the efficacy with which a test compound inhibits Wip1.
