Patent number: 8388937Abstract: A specific targeting peptide binding to glypican-3 can specifically binds to glypican-3 overexpressed in carcinoma cells and includes an amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:1 or some thereof. Glypican-3 is overexpressed in malignant tumors including hepatocellular carcinoma, melanoma, germ cell tumor, etc., and may be targeted in diagnosis and treatment of tumors by labeling the targeting peptide. A diagnosis using the specific peptide may detect even small tumors more accurately than conventional methods. A treatment method using the specific peptide may remove only carcinoma cells without harming other normal tissues.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2010Date of Patent: March 5, 2013Assignee: Kyungpook National University Industry—Academic Cooperation FoundationInventors: Byeong Cheol Ahn, Jae Tae Lee, Je Yeol Cho, Jung Soo Yu, Yong Jin Lee, Sang Woo Lee, You La Lee
