Reawakening the cellular death program in neoplasia through the therapeutic blockade of IAP function Wright CW; Duckett CSJ Clin Invest 2005[Oct]; 115 (10): 2673-8Recent studies have shown that members of the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) protein family are highly expressed in several classes of cancer. The primary implication of these findings is that the elevated expression of IAPs is not coincidental but actually participates in oncogenesis by helping to allow the malignant cell to avoid apoptotic cell death. This concept, together with the discovery of several IAP-regulatory proteins that use a conserved mode of action, has stimulated a major effort by many research groups to devise IAP-targeting strategies as a means of developing novel antineoplastic drugs. In this Review, we consider the evidence both for and against the IAPs being valid therapeutic targets, and we describe the types of strategies being used to neutralize their functions.|*Apoptosis[MESH]|*Gene Expression Regulation, Neoplastic/drug effects[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Antineoplastic Agents/metabolism/therapeutic use[MESH]|Drug Delivery Systems/methods[MESH]|Drug Design[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Inhibitor of Apoptosis Proteins/antagonists & inhibitors/*metabolism[MESH]|Neoplasm Proteins/*metabolism[MESH]|Neoplasms/drug therapy/*metabolism[MESH] |
