Lentivirus-Mediated Knockdown of Astrocyte Elevated Gene-1 Inhibits Growth and Induces Apoptosis through MAPK Pathways in Human Retinoblastoma Cells.

PURPOSE:To explore expression and function of astrocyte elevated gene-1 (AEG-1) in human retinoblastoma (RB). METHODS:The expression of AEG-1 in histological sections of human RBs and in RB cell lines was examined using immunohistochemical staining and RT-PCR and Western blotting respectively. We kn...
