title: [Mechanisms responsible for antitumor activity of melanoma differentiation-associated gene -7/interleukin-24].
abstract: The melanoma differentiation-associated gene-7/interleukin-24 (MDA-7/IL-24) is a novel candidate of tumor suppressor, which can experimentally inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells and induce apoptosis of various human malignant cells.
