  • Publication number: 20230250451
    Abstract: Disclosed is an application of methioninase gene therapy in the treatment of a malignant tumor. In the gene therapy, a virus is used as a vector to insert an exogenous methioninase gene to constitute a methioninase expression system inside a tumor, thus providing an endogenous mechanism for further consumption of methionine. In vitro cytology experiments indicate that the methioninase gene therapy significantly reduces the level of intracellular methionine, effectively inhibits the proliferation of tumor cells, and can be used in an application in preparing a drug for the targeted treatment of a malignant tumor.

  • Patent number: 10959977
    Abstract: The present invention discloses uses of a novel phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor ZL-n-91 in preparing drugs against lung cancer proliferation and metastasis. The mouse survival curves and in vitro cell experiments show that the PDE4 inhibitor ZL-n-91 can significantly inhibit the proliferation and metastasis of lung cancer cells, indicating that this PDE4 inhibitor ZL-n-91 can become an important target for the studies on anti-lung cancer proliferation and metastasis, to provide a basis for preparing drugs against lung cancer proliferation and metastasis, with promising prospect of development and application.

  • Patent number: 10113184
    Abstract: It discloses a transformant for weight loss and lipid reduction, which is obtained by recombining and substituting human oxyntomodulin gene into thymidylate synthase gene of L.lactis genome. Wherein the recombinant substitution is homologous recombination by artificially synthesizing gene sequences, making the sequence flanking the human oxyntomodulin gene derived from the homologous sequences of thymidylate synthase gene in the L.lactis genome, then the gene fragments are electroporated into L. lactis, to carry out homologous recombination.

  • Patent number: 9439934
    Abstract: The current invention discloses an attenuated Salmonella typhimurium, a genetically engineered bacterium and applications thereof in preparing drugs for the treatment of prostate cancer. The attenuated Salmonella typhimurium has tumor targeting and significant inhibitory effects on prostate cancer cells. A genetically engineered bacterium bearing a L-methioninase gene plasmid also has tumor targeting ability. The attenuated Salmonella typhimurium with the plasmid can constitutively express L-methioninase in the tumor tissues, consume a significant amount of methionine and other nutrients, which in turn causes lack of nutrition and slow growth of tumor cells. Therefore, it can be used as drugs for treating prostate cancer.
