    Abstract: Inhibition of synoviolin function was found to activate the cancer-suppressing protein p53. Substances inhibiting the function of synoviolin are useful as cancer therapeutic agents. The inhibition of synoviolin function was also found to lead to the inhibition of p53 ubiquitination, increased activity of p53 phosphorylation proteins, and the like. Based on these findings, the present invention provides methods capable of efficiently screening for cancer therapeutic agents. Further, it was also found that regulation of the autoubiquitination of synoviolin protein suppresses the proliferation of rheumatoid arthritis synovial cells. Substances regulating the autoubiquitination of synoviolin protein are useful as anti-rheumatic agents.

  • Patent number: 7375222
    Abstract: This invention relates to an anti-dementia agent which uses a BEC 1 potassium channel inhibitor as the active ingredient. It was proved that the BEC 1 potassium channel inhibitor has an action to improve learning disorder and is useful as a preventive or therapeutic agent for diseases, preferably dementia, in which the BEC 1 potassium channel is considered to be concerned. Illustratively, it was confirmed by an in vivo test that the BEC 1 potassium channel inhibitor has an action to improve learning disorder. Also, it was found that a compound having 2,4,6-triamino-1,3,5-triazine has a BEC 1 potassium channel inhibitory action.
