Abstract: The present invention relates to an immunocytokine in which a human interferon-beta variant is conjugated to an antibody or a fragment thereof, and a method for preparing the same. The human interferon-beta variant has superior activity or functions compared with natural interferon-beta, and the productivity of the immunocytokine according to the present invention is excellent. In addition, the immunocytokine according to the present invention can be favorably used as a target therapeutic agent for multiple sclerosis or cancer since the immunocytokine express both of functions of the interferon-beta and characteristics of the antibody binding to a specific antigen.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a gene for predicting or diagnosing the prognosis of early-stage breast cancer and to a use thereof, and more specifically relates to a genetic marker for predicting or diagnosing the prognosis of breast cancer, including TRBC1 (T cell receptor beta constant 1), BTN3A2 (butyrophilin, subfamily 3, member A2) or HLA-DPA1 (major histocompatibility complex, class II, DP alpha 1) for providing information necessary for predicting or diagnosing the prognosis of a breast cancer patient. The genetic marker of the present invention allows the prediction or diagnosis of the prognosis of a breast cancer patient, and can therefore advantageously be used for the purpose of providing a direction as to the future course of breast cancer treatment, including a decision on whether anticancer therapy is necessary.

Abstract: An immune conjugate according to the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition, which can be used in the target-oriented drug treatment by conjugating a dendron allowing a plurality of drugs to be bound to a surface thereof and a target-directed antibody, and especially, can deliver high concentrations of drugs in a tumor-specific manner to exhibit a strong anticancer effect by conjugating a hydrophilic dendron, to which a plurality of anticancer drugs are bound, to an antibody.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for maintaining the increased intracellular p53 level, induced by a platinum-based anticancer drug, and an application thereof and, more specifically, to a method for maintaining the increased intracellular p53 level in cells by administering a platinum-based anticancer drug and siRNA to ubiquitin ligase for p53 to a subject in need thereof in combination and sequentially, and a composition for promoting cancer cell apoptosis using the same. According to the method of the present invention, the increased intracellular p53 expression level can be maintained for a long period of time in spite of the treatment with a low-concentration platinum-based anticancer drug, thereby effectively inducing the apoptosis of cancer cells and minimizing the drug side effect caused by the administration of the platinum-based anticancer drug, and thus the present invention can be favorably used in the prevention of cancer or the development of cancer medicines.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for selecting a gene intended to predict the prognosis for a cancer, to the selected gene for predicting the prognosis of cancer and to a kit for predicting and a method for predicting metastasis in breast-cancer patients by using the same. In the present invention, a straight forward method is used to achieve high-reliability prediction of the patient's prognosis by analyzing for the genetic characteristics of early stage breast cancer, and thus the present invention can be used to advantage in prognosis diagnosis which can reduce unnecessary anticancer therapy.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for preventing or treating diseases associated with human papillomavirus (HPV), and more specifically, cancer associated with HPV, and even more specifically, cervical cancer. The nucleotide sequence of the present invention, the sequence in which the base thereof is modified, and a specific combination thereof can be useful in a composition for effectively treating diseases associated with HPV infection by greatly inhibiting the expression of the E6/E7 gene of HPV type 16 or 18.
