Inhibition of malignant phenotypes of human osteosarcoma cells by a gene silencer, a pyrrole–imidazole polyamide, which targets an E-box motif
•We generated pyrrole–imidazole (PI) polyamides that could bind to an E-box motif.•PI polyamide Myc-6 induces G1 arrest and apoptosis in human osteosarcoma MG63 cells.•Myc-6 represses tumor growth both in vitro and in vivo.•Myc-6 binds to the 5′-upstream region of noncoding RNA MALAT1 and reduces it...
