In conclusion, we demonstrated that this 5-peptide vaccine was tolerable, and that FOXM1 and MELK could be promising targets for immunotherapy in patients with cervical cancer.
The results of the present study indicated that miR-320 acted as a tumor suppressor in the viability, migration and invasion of cervical cancer through directly targeting FOXM1, suggesting that miR-320 may be a target for the therapeutic treatment of cervical cancer.
These findings indicate that miR-214 acts as a tumor suppressor during the process of migration, invasion and drug sensitivity through targeting FOXM1, suggesting miR-214 as a potential new diagnostic and therapeutic target for the treatment of cervical cancer.
Transcriptional level of E7 in patient's cervical lesions at different stages of progression was shown to correlate with those of B-Myb and FoxM1 as well as other mitotic gene transcripts, thereby linking E7 with cellular proliferation and progression in cervical cancer in vivo.
Conversely, depletion of FOXM1 by RNA interference in FOXM1-over-expressing cervical cancer cells (SiHa) caused significant inhibition on cell proliferation and anchorage-independent growth ability on soft agar.
