  • Patent number: 9683042
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a humanized scFv delivery vehicle targeted to be human T-cell specific, and provides: a humanized scFv which comprises a heavy-chain variable region (VH) consisting of a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence given by sequence number 32 and comprises a light-chain variable region (VL) consisting of a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence given by sequence number 34; and a T-cell-specific drug or marker delivery vehicle comprising the humanized scFv. The humanized scFv of the present invention has minimalised antigenicity and has an effect which does not give rise to an immune reaction even when used in the human body, and thus can advantageously be used as a delivery vehicle for specifically delivering a target substance such as a siRNA gene or an immune reaction regulating protein to T-cells.

  • Patent number: 8153122
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a pharmaceutical composition for inhibiting the growth or metastasis of cholangiocarcinoma, comprising a L1CAM activity inhibitor or expression suppressor and a treatment method using the composition. This is based on the finding that L1CAM is overexpressed on cholangiocarcinoma and plays an important role in the growth and metastasis of cholangiocarcinoma and the mortality of cholangiocarcinoma patients increases as the expression rate of L1CAM increases. Also, antibodies inhibitory of the activity of L1CAM, or siRNAs suppressing the expression of L1CAM, are found to reduce the growth and invasion of cholangiocarcinoma cells. Mouse monoclonal antibodies, recognizing the L1CAM protein on the cholangiocarcinoma cell surface and binding specifically to cholangiocarcinoma tissues, or siRNAs, antisense oligonucleotides or shRNAs, may be useful in the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma by inhibiting the growth, invasion and migration of cholangiocarcinoma cell.
