摘要
Recent findings show that even the brief inactivation of a single oncogene might be sufficient to result in the sustained loss of a neoplastic phenotype. It is therefore possible that the targeted inactivation of oncogenes could be a specific and effective treatment for cancer So why does oncogene inactivation cause tumour regression and will this be a generally successful approach for the treatment of human neoplasia?.
