| Research Abstract |
The aim of this study was identification of the target genes transcriptionally regulated by SYT-SSX fusion protein in synovial sarcomas. We found about 300 candidate targets by chromatin immunoprecipitation assay, DNA cloning and sequencing. We have screened the reagents which can block and inhibit the localization of SYT-SSX fusion protein in synovial sarcoma cells, to find new targeted therapy agents for synovial sarcoma.
