All cancer cell lines transfected with low doses of siRNAs targeted to PLK1 had greatly decreased levels of PLK1 mRNA and protein. siRNA4, which had the strongest inhibitory effect, reduced PLK1 mRNA in MCF-7 cells by 70% and PLK1 protein in MCF-7 cells by 95% 24 hours after transfection.

This analysis predicts that cancer cells manifesting a stem cell-like expression profile of a death-from-cancer signature would exhibit the following features: a concomitantly increased expression of certain members of inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP) family (Survivin and XIAP); activation of mitotic spindle check point proteins (BUB1, BUB3, KNTC2, Mad2, PLK1, PLK4, STK6/Aurora A); and elevated levels of certain cell cycle control/marker proteins (CCNB1, CCNB2, CCND1, CCNA2, CDC2, CDC25, Ki67, USP22).
