| Research Abstract |
We generated a novel survivin-responsive Surv. m-CRA-OCp, which is regulated by the survivin promoter and cancer/tissue-specific osteocalcin promoter, and demonstrated reduced toxicity to normal tissues, while maintaining its anticancer effects. Significant contribution of matrix-metalloproteinase-14 on vascular invasion and metastasis of breast cancer is shown. We analyzed hedgehog pathway in osteosarcoma and showed that inhibition of GLI2 may represent an effective therapeutic approach for patients with osteosarcoma.
