Abstract: | Background Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most frequent malignancies and has a high mortality rate due to late detection
and lack of efficient treatments. Identifying novel drug targets for this indication may open the way for new treatment strategies.
Comparison of gene expression profiles of NSCLC and normal adjacent tissue (NAT) allowed to determine that 5-alpha-reductase
type I (SRD5A1) was up-regulated in NSCLC compared to NAT. This raised the question whether SRD5A1 was involved in sustained
proliferation and survival of NSCLC. |
