Growth inhibition of a prostate tumor by alpha-difluoromethylornithine and by cyclophosphamide.

abstract：:Zinc finger transcription factors are DNA-binding proteins that are known to determine the identity of cells by regulating cell-specific gene expression. In addition, mutations in some members of this family have been found to be associated with several neoplasias, including Wilms' tumor and leukemias. Because the mec...
