Abstract
In the present study we have applied the siRNA approach for substantial reduction of AML1-ETO and RUNX1 (K83N) expression, which are frequently found in the leukemic cells. We have designed small hairpin RNAs (shRNA) for targeting AML1-ETO oncogene and a region close to the 5'-untranslated region of mRNA for the mutant RUNX1 (K83N) oncogene and expressed the shRNAs in lentiviral vectors. We report a stable reduction in expression of the oncogenes following the introduction of shRNAs into cells.
