Idea Proposed/Formulated by: Dr L Boominathan Ph.D.
Terms & Conditions apply http://genomediscovery.org/registration/terms-and-conditions/
Citation: Boominathan, L., Anti-metastasis therapy: Acarbose, an α-glucosidase inhibitor and widely used drug in the treatment of T2DM, suppresses the expression of PD-1 , a suppressor of activation of T-cells, via down regulation of its target gene, 28/February/2015, 8.29 am, Genome-2-Bio-Medicine Discovery center (GBMD), http://genomediscovery.org
Significance: This study suggests that Acarbose, by decreasing the expression of its target gene, it may suppress the expression of PD-1. Thereby, it may activate the immune system and inhibit metastatic progression. Thus, pharmacological formulations encompassing “Acarbose or its analogues“ may be used to inhibit the progression of tumors.
Amount: $ 500*
Undisclosed information: How Acarbose decreases the expression of PD-1
