[Small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated transcriptional knockdown of urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), alone or in combination, inhibits uPAR and/or MMP-9 expression and induces apoptosis in the human glioblastoma xenograft cell lines 4910 and 5310. siRNA against uPAR (pU-Si), MMP-9 (pM-Si), or both (pUM-Si) induced apoptosis and was associated with the cleavage of caspase-8, caspase-3, and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase.].
