Induction of apoptosis of osteoclasts by targeting transcription factors with decoy molecules.

abstract：:Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) and its receptor (IGF-IR) play an important role in mitogenesis, apoptosis, growth, and proliferation of several types of cancers. Overexpression of IGF-IR in colorectal cancer is associated with increase of cancer cell proliferation and migration as well as inhibition of apoptosis. In...
