  • Patent number: 8388937
    Abstract: 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.

  • Publication number: 20090214435
    Abstract: A recombinant vector capable of expressing MDR1 shRNA and thymidine kinase, and a use thereof. More specifically, provided is a recombinant vector capable of efficiently expressing MDR1 shRNA and thymidine kinase in a host cell, a transfectant cell comprising the same recombinant vector, a composition for treating neoplastic diseases, comprising the same recombinant vector, and a method for imaging of neoplastic lesions using the same recombinant vector. The recombinant vector of the present invention is capable of achieving efficient intracellular expression of MDR1 shRNA and a thymidine kinase-GFP fusion protein within the host cell and is therefore highly effective for combined therapy of anticancer drugs. Further, the recombinant vector of the present invention enables imaging of neoplastic lesions. Therefore, the recombinant vector of the present invention can be used in combination with other anticancer drugs for treatment of neoplastic diseases.
