Abstract: Provided is a means for detecting a subject with mild cognitive impairment or assisting in the detection thereof. A biomarker for testing for mild cognitive impairment, comprising Claudin-5.

Abstract: The present invention provides an antisense oligomer having the base sequence depicted in SEQ ID NO: 26, an antisense oligomer having a base sequence resulting from substitution, deletion, insertion, or addition of 1 to 6 bases in the base sequence depicted in SEQ ID NO: 26, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable hydrate thereof, an oligonucleotide conjugate in which the antisense oligomer is bound with a molecule capable of binding to an asialoglycoprotein receptor, and a pharmaceutical composition containing the same.

Abstract: Provided is an oligonucleotide conjugate comprising an oligonucleotide and two or more linearly connected asialoglycoprotein receptor-binding molecules attached to the oligonucleotide, wherein the oligonucleotide comprises a locked nucleoside analog having a bridging structure between the 4? and 2? positions, is complementary to a human PCSK9 gene, and has inhibitory activity on the expression of the human PCSK9 gene. The oligonucleotide conjugate of the present invention can be used in the field of pharmaceutical products, in particular, the field of the development and production of therapeutic agents for diseases associated with a high LDL cholesterol level.
