RNA interference to treat enteroviral disease: current status and clinical perspectives.

abstract：:The tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) exerts a cancer cell-specific pro-apoptotic activity. This property made the TRAIL associated pathway one of the most promising strategies aimed at inducing tumor-selective death. In fact, several approaches have been considered to explore this pathwa...
