摘要:
An embodiment of the present invention provides a marker, a test method, and a test kit which can detect the onset of breast cancer that cannot be detected by palpation or mammography examination or breast cancer in an early stage (clinical stage 0), which are simple, and which have high reliability.A marker associated with breast cancer of an embodiment of the present invention is characterized by being a micro-RNA that is found in serum or plasma. More specifically, the marker contains at least a micro-RNA that is present in the serum or the plasma at a significantly reduced level after the onset of breast cancer, or during or after an early stage (during or after clinical stage 0) of breast cancer compared with that before the onset of breast cancer or before the early stage (before clinical stage 0) of breast cancer.

An object of the present invention is to provide a method for inhibiting activation of signaling pathway mediated by erbB1 or erbB2 in human cell and a signaling inhibitor to be used therefor. The above-described activation of signaling pathway can be inhibited by a polypeptide comprising at least one of PTB domain or ERK2 binding domain of human FRS2β. The above-described polypeptide may be introduced directly into cell, or nucleic acid which encodes for the above-described polypeptide may be introduced into cell to allow expression of the polypeptide in the cell. Such polypeptide and nucleic acid can be used, for example, as a signaling inhibitor. In addition, since erbB1 and erbB2 are involved in development of cancer, the above-described signaling inhibitor is also useful, for example, as an anticancer drug.

Disclosed is an identification marker which can be utilized for detection of various human cancer cells and whose expression closely relates to malignant alteration of cells, and compositions for human cancer treatment which are based on suppression of cancer cell proliferation through inhibition of expression of the identification marker. The marker is human heterochromatin protein 1γ (HP1γ), and the compositions for cancer treatment comprises one or more agents which suppresses the expression of human HP1γ gene, such as siRNAs to human HP1γ.
摘要:
A centralized alarm sytem for warning of abnormalities in a plurality of components, in particular, for a vehicle, comprising, a plurality of sensors, each associated with a component for producing an abnormality signal when the associated component becomes abnormal, a control circuit connected to each of the sensors for producing a main indication signal when any one of the sensors produces an abnormality signal and for producing a local indication signal for each sensor producing an abnormality signal, and a plurality of local indicators, each associated with one of the sensors and connected to the control circuit being capable of producing a perceptable indication when an associated one of the sensors produces an abnormality signal. A main indicator is also connected to the control circuit for producing a perceptable indication when a main indication signal is produced by the control circuit with the control circuit including a systems check device for turning the main indicator on when a main indicator is produced in the control circuit. The control circuit also includes a component checking device for permitting individual activation of each local indicator when a corresponding local indication signal is produced.
摘要:
Provided is a cancer evaluation method using a novel cancer marker for evaluating the onset, the preclinical stage, the clinical stage, or the prognosis of a cancer in a subject. At least one miRNA selected from hsa-miR-92 and hsa-miR-494 is used as the novel cancer marker in cancer evaluation. The cancer marker in a sample of a cell or a tissue is detected, and the possibility of a cancer in the sample is evaluated based on the expression level of the cancer marker. According to this evaluation method, by detecting the miRNA as the cancer marker, it becomes possible to evaluate the possibility of a cancer in the sample with excellent reliability. As a method for detecting the cancer marker, it is preferable to perform an in situ hybridization method using a labeled probe with respect to the sample that has been immobilized, for example.

The present invention provides a novel cancer marker for evaluating the onset, the preclinical stage, the clinical stage, or the prognosis of a cancer in a subject, and an evaluation method using the same. A cancer marker containing at least one miRNA selected from hsa-miR-92 and hsa-miR-494 is used as a marker for cancers excluding breast cancer. A method for evaluating the possibility of cancers excluding breast cancer includes the step of detecting the expression level of a cancer marker in a biological sample collected from a subject. In this method, the cancer marker contains at least one miRNA selected from hsa-miR-92 and hsa-miR-494.

摘要:
The present invention identifies the total nucleotide sequence of a novel oncogene from human, which is directly involved in such a cancerization mechanism as for cervical cancer induced by HPV infection of cervical epithelial cell and the amino acid sequence of an oncogenic protein encoded thereby, and to provide a full-length polynucleotide encoding a peptide chain of the oncogenic protein derived from the novel oncogene, which can be used for recombinant production of the oncogenic protein, and the peptide chain of the oncogenic protein produced recombinantly therewith. Specifically, the present invention provides a novel oncogene polynucleotide from human involving development of cervical cancer, comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, particularly a polynucleotide of the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2.
