  • Publication number: 20170037101
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition containing, as an active ingredient, chemokine-like samdori2 (Sam2) for preventing and treating a mental disease associated with a brain nervous system. By constructing a Sam2-specific knockout zebrafish (wherein, the Sam 2 is expressed in a habenular nucleus) and finding that, through novel tank, scototaxis, and social cohesion tests, the zebrafish shows significantly higher fear and anxiety behaviors than the control; inhibitory neuron expression in neurons overexpressing Sam2 gene is decreased; and a patient due to sam2 gene loss shows autism and the hyperanxiety symptom, the Samdori2 can be usefully applied as an active ingredient for a pharmaceutical composition for preventing and treating a mental disease associated with a brain nervous system.

  • Patent number: 8703732
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition, including inhibitors for expression or activity of TIP41 protein, for prevention and treatment of cancer. When the liver cancer cell lines, showing resistance to TRAIL, are treated with TIP41 siRNA and TRAIL, apoptosis is induced in cancer cell. The same effect is found in cases of lung cancer and colon cancer with resistance against TRAIL. Moreover, this induction of apoptosis by TIP41 siRNA and TRAIL was confirmed in tumor xenograft, which was injected with Huh7 liver cancer cells and then was subjected to TIP41 siRNA transfection and TRAIL treatment. In addition, it was confirmed through animal experiments in which the tumor size has reduced and apoptosis was induced by treatment with TIP41 siRNA and TRAIL. Of note, MKK7/JNK pathway was confirmed to mediate the apoptosis induced by the application of TIP41 siRNA and TRAIL. The apoptosis were verified to be caused by the activation of MKK7/JNK signaling pathway.
