Abstract
The present study describes an efficient RNAi system for gene silencing that is specific to prostate cancer cells using the PSMA promoter/enhancer. Suppression of STAT3 by using this system decreased proliferation and induced apoptosis of PC-3 and LNCaP cells. This system may be useful for RNAi therapy for prostate cancer.
