摘要:
The present invention provides methods for detecting and diagnosing cancer, such methods involving the determination of the expression level of the RQCD1, GIGYF1 or GIGYF2 genes. These genes were discovered to discriminate cancer cells from normal cells. Furthermore, the present invention provides methods of screening for therapeutic agents useful in the treatment of cancer and methods for treating cancer. Moreover, the present invention provides siRNAs targeting the RQCD1, GIGYF1 and/or GIGYF2 genes, all of which are suggested to be useful in the treatment of cancer.
摘要:
In preparation of an emulsion by causing a mixture to flow from one syringe through a connector into another syringe, an object is to prevent the air from being entrained into cylinders and prepare the emulsion containing no air bubble, and another object is to easily prepare a homogeneous emulsion. Provided is a syringe pressing apparatus, including: a syringe fixing mechanism for fixing two syringes to a casing, the two syringes being coupled to each other through a connector; a pressing mechanism for alternately pressing syringe plungers of the two syringes; and a plunger-pressure-measuring device for measuring a pressure with which the pressing mechanism presses the syringe plungers.

The invention features methods for detecting cancers, especially lung cancer and/or esophageal cancer, using over-expressed gene; CDCA5, EPHA7, STK31 or WDHD1 compared the normal organs. Also disclosed are methods of identifying compounds for treating and preventing cancers, based on the over-expression or the biological activity of CDCA5, EPHA7, STK31 or WDHD1 in the cancers, especially the interaction between EPHA7 and EGFR. Also, features are a method for treating cancers by administering a double-stranded molecule against CDCA5, EPHA7, STK31 or WDHD1 gene. The invention also features products, including the double-stranded molecules and vectors encoding them, as well as compositions comprising the molecules or vectors, useful in the provided methods.

The present invention relates to methods for treating or preventing lung cancer by administering a double-stranded molecule against one or more of EBI3, DLX5, NPTX1, CDKN3 or EF-I delta genes or compositions, vectors or cells containing such a double-stranded molecule. The present invention also features methods for diagnosing lung cancer, especially NSCLC or SCLC, using one or more over-expressed genes selected from among EBI3, DLX5, NPTX1, CDKN3 and/or EF-I delta. Also disclosed are methods of identifying compounds for treating and preventing lung cancer, using as an index their effect on the over-expression of one or more of EBI3, DLX5, CDKN3 and/or EF-I delta in the lung cancer, the cell proliferation function of one or more of EBI3, DLX5, NPTX1, CDKN3 and/or EF-I delta or the interaction between CDKN3 and VRS, EF-I beta, EF-I gamma and/or EF-I delta.
摘要:
The present invention provides methods for detecting and diagnosing cancer, which method involves the determination of the expression level of the STYK1 gene. The gene was discovered to discriminate cancer cells from normal cells. Furthermore, the present invention provides methods of screening for therapeutic agents useful in the treatment of cancer, methods for treating cancer, and methods for vaccinating a subject against cancer. Moreover, the present invention provides siRNAs targeting the STYK1 gene, which are suggested to be useful in the treatment of cancer.
摘要:
Described herein are objective methods for detecting or diagnosing a predisposition to developing cancer, particularly pancreatic cancer. In one embodiment, the diagnostic method involves the step of determining an expression level of C2orf18 using anti-C2orf18 antibody. The present invention further provides methods of screening for therapeutic agents useful in the treatment of a C2orf18-associated disease, such as a cancer, e.g. pancreatic cancer, methods of inhibiting the cell growth and treating or alleviating their symptom. The invention also features products, such as polynucleotides, polypeptides, and vectors double-stranded molecules, antibodies, vectors and compositions composed thereof.
摘要:
An optical disk reproducing apparatus has a circuit for detecting a difference in modulation scheme between two types of optical disks in a reproduction signal and a circuit for determining the modulation schemes of the disks on the basis of the difference. Thus the apparatus can reproduce the two optical disks with use of the circuit which determines the modulation schemes of the disks to be reproduced.
摘要:
Disclosed are methods for detecting non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) using differentially expressed genes KIF11, GHSR1b, NTSR1, and FOXM1. Also disclosed are methods of identifying compounds for treating and preventing NSCLC, based on the interaction between KOC1 and KIF11, or NMU and GHSR1b or NTSR1.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for inhibiting growth of a cancer cell, particularly a renal cell carcinoma, by contacting the cell with a composition composed of an HIG2 siRNA or HIG2 antibody. Methods of diagnosing renal cell cancer are also provided within the present invention.
