  • Publication number: 20210317459
    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.
