Description

Kai Liao and co-authors published a study in 2024 on a gene that helps bladder cancer resist the drug cisplatin. Resistance limits how much patients gain from this standard therapy. A chemical mark on RNA, read by a protein called IGF2BP3, drew the team's focus. They found the gene SRD5A3 raised in tumors and even more in drug-resistant cancer cells.

Silencing either the gene or its reader protein slowed growth and restored drug sensitivity in resistant cells. Tests showed the reader spots the mark on the gene's RNA and keeps it stable. In mice, silencing either partner curbed tumor growth under drug treatment. The authors name the pair as rational targets.
