Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide an antisense oligonucleotide that targets an ARL4C molecule and exerts an antitumor effect in vivo, and a nucleic acid drug using the antisense oligonucleotide. An antisense oligonucleotide that has a base sequence consisting of at least 10 consecutive bases contained in the base sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1. This antisense oligonucleotide targets an ARL4C molecule and thus can inhibit the expression of ARL4C in a tumor cell in vitro and suppress the migration and proliferation thereof. When systemically administered, moreover, the antisense oligonucleotide can exert an excellent antitumor effect in vivo too.

Abstract: A prophylactic or therapeutic agent for a myopathy, including a miR-33b inhibitor, preferably an antisense oligonucleotide against miR-33b, as an effective component.

Abstract: Disclosed is an oligonucleotide or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the oligonucleotide comprises at least one defined nucleoside structure, can bind to a human nSR100 gene and has human nSR100 expression inhibiting activity. The oligonucleotide has a length of 12 to 20 mer, and is complementary to a defined target region. Further, disclosed is an nSR100 gene expression inhibitor and a cancer therapeutic agent containing the oligonucleotide or the pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof. The cancer therapeutic agent is used for treatment of small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, or breast cancer.

Abstract: A prophylactic or therapeutic agent for an aneurysm comprising a miR-33b inhibiting substance, preferably an antisense oligonucleotide against miR-33b, as an active ingredient.

Abstract: The present invention provides an antisense oligonucleotide for inhibiting biosynthesis of chondroitin sulfate. The antisense oligonucleotide comprises at least one modified nucleotide, wherein the antisense oligonucleotide suppresses expression of one or both of the chondroitin sulfate N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-1 (CSGalNAcT1) gene and the chondroitin sulfate N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-2 (CSGalNAcT2) gene.

Abstract: A nucleic acid medicine using an antisense nucleic acid to inhibit the expression of SYT13, which has better efficacy than siRNA for targeting peritoneal dissemination of gastric cancer is provided. An antisense oligonucleotide which consists of a nucleotide sequence substantially complementary to the nucleotide sequence of a specific region in human SYT13 mRNA and which can inhibit the expression of human SYT13 mRNA; and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the antisense oligonucleotide are also provided.

Abstract: The present invention aims to provide an antisense oligonucleic acid with reduced hepatotoxicity. The antisense oligonucleic acid according to the present invention is characterized in that it has a base length of not less than 7 nt and not more than 30 nt, wherein nucleic acid residues of not less than 1 nt and not more than 5 nt respectively from the both terminals are 2?,4?-bridged nucleic acids, 2?,4?-non-bridged nucleic acid residue(s) is(are) present between the above-mentioned both terminals, and one or more bases in the nucleic acid residue(s) of the above-mentioned 2?,4?-non-bridged nucleic acid residue(s) is/are modified.
