ABSTRACT:
This invention provides proteins which selectively inhibit the proliferation of androgen-independent prostate cancer cells. This invention also provides a nucleic acid molecule encoding the instant proteins, including a nucleic acid molecule suitable for use in gene therapy for treating a subject afflicted with androgen-independent prostate cancer. This invention further provides a composition of matter which selectively kills androgen-independent prostate cancer cells, and comprises the instant proteins and a toxic moiety operably affixed thereto. Finally, the instant invention provides related pharmaceutical compositions and methods for treating androgen-independent prostate cancer.
