Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating cancer containing pleiotropic regulator 1 (PLRG1) inhibitor as an active ingredient, a method for treating cancer including administering the composition to a subject, a composition for diagnosing cancer containing an agent for measuring the expression level of PLRG1, a method for providing information for diagnosing cancer including measuring the expression level of PLRG1, and a method for screening agents for preventing or treating cancer. Pleiotropic regulator 1 (PLRG1) is overexpressed in cancer cells, and the inhibition of the expression of PLRG1 can induce cancer cell-specific apoptosis. Accordingly, the PLRG1 inhibitor of the present invention has an excellent effect as an anticancer agent without side effects, and additionally, the PLRG1 inhibitor can be used for cancer diagnosis, screening of anticancer agents, etc. by measuring the expression levels of PLRG1.

Abstract: Disclosed is an anticancer supplement agent including a benzo[d]oxazole derivative as an effective ingredient. The benzo[d]oxazole derivative, which is a nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) inhibitor, is capable of inhibiting activity of Nrf2 that induces an antioxidant enzyme to remove reactive oxygen species (ROS) that kills a cancer cell, thereby increasing production of ROS. Therefore, the benzo[d]oxazole derivative can be used as an anticancer supplement agent that shows therapeutic effects in anticancer agent therapy or radiation therapy, and in this regard, the benzo[d]oxazole derivative can overcome tolerance of the cancer cell to anticancer agent therapy or radiation therapy and enhance apoptotic effects on the cancer cell.

Abstract: Provided are a method of enhancing radiation sensitivity by using miR-499b-5p and a method of treating a radiation resistant cancer including administering miR-499b-5p.
