Abstract
⺠The cell-surface expressed nucleolin is a strategic target for cancer therapy. ⺠Nucleolin antagonist HB-19 pseudopeptide suppresses tumorigenesis and angiogenesis in mice. ⺠Here we show that HB-19 inhibits tumorigenicity of the highly malignant rhabdoid tumor G401 cells. ⺠Inhibitory effect of HB-19 is associated with selective down regulation of tumor-associated genes. ⺠Our results suggest that HB-19 is a potential candidate for targeted therapy of rhabdoid tumors.
