    摘要: The present invention relates to a trans-splicing ribozyme specific to Alzheimer's disease, and a use thereof. The trans-splicing ribozyme replaces RNA of genes that cause or increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease with RNA of genes that are beneficial for the treatment of the disease, thereby reducing the expression of the disease-causing genes and increasing the expression of the genes beneficial for the treatment of the disease, and thus can be usefully used to prevent or treat Alzheimer's disease.

    摘要: The self-circularization RNA construct of an example embodiment of the present disclosure can be expressed in a DNA vector and simultaneously circularized through a self-targeting & splicing reaction to form a circRNA, and the circRNA can consist only of a gene of interest. The gene of interest has the advantage of being able to rapidly express a peptide or protein, including an IRES region, an initiation codon, and a termination codon.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a cancer-specific trans-splicing ribozyme and a use thereof. Since a trans-splicing ribozyme according to the present invention does not act on normal tissue, but is specifically expressed in cancer tissue, it is very safe and has excellent expression efficiency at the post-transcription level, and thus can be effectively used in treatment of cancer. Specifically, as a recombinant vector of the present invention has a CMV promoter and SD/SA and WPRE sequences, the recombinant vector has high ribozyme expression efficiency, and as the recombinant vector of the present invention has miR-122T, it can regulate activity related to miR-122, and it is very safe to utilize. Therefore, the recombinant vector of the present invention can be effectively used in treatment of all types of liver cancer, except some types of liver cancer caused by HCV in which miR-122 expression is highly shown in the cancer tissue in comparison to normal tissue, and the recombinant vector also can be effectively used in treatment of other carcinomas in which miR-122 is not substantially expressed.
