Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition for diagnosing liver cancer containing TM7SF3 as an active ingredient, a kit for diagnosing liver cancer with anti-TM7SF3 antibodies as reagent, and a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating liver cancer containing the anti-TM7SF3 antibodies as an active ingredient. The TM7SF3 protein is rarely expressed in liver tissue of a healthy person, but is specifically over-expressed in malignant hepatic tissue of liver cancer patients. As diagnosis or prognosis of liver cancer is thus predictable, the TM7SF protein can be used as a marker for diagnosing liver cancer. In addition, the anti-TM7SE3 antibodies of the present invention specifically bind with an extracellular domain of the TTM7SF3, and respond to this particular liver cell line. Therefore, the anti-TM7SE3 antibodies selectively induce apoptosis of only cancer cells caused by IM7SF3 over-expression, and can thus be used in preventing or treating liver cancer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a human monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to VCAM-1, and a therapeutic composition for the treatment of inflammatory disease or cancer comprising the same. The human monoclonal antibody according to the present invention shows a strong affinity to VCAM-1 expressed on human or mouse endothelial cell, effectively inhibits leukocyte adhesion to activated endothelial cells expressing VCAM-1, and shows a low immunogenicity, thereby being used for the treatment of cancer or inflammatory disease such as asthma, rhinitis, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, bowel disease, arteriosclerosis, myocardial infarction and transplant rejection.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an alpha-endolase (ENO1) -specific human antibody, and more particularly to a human antibody including a complementarity determining region (CDR) and a framework region (FR) derived from a human antibody specifically bound to ENO1. The ENO1-specific human antibody expressed in the various kinds of cancer cells of the present invention may be used in diagnosis of the cancer, classification of the disease, visualization, treatment, and prognostic evaluation.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a CD9-specific human antibody, more precisely a CD9-specific human antibody composed of human derived CD9-specific complementarity determining region (CDR) and framework region (FR). The human antibody of the present invention recognizes CD9 extracellular loop 2 domain (CD9-ECL2) as an epitope and thereby strongly binding thereto. The human antibody of the present invention also has CD9 antigen neutralizing effect and at the same time inhibiting effect on tumor cell lines. Therefore, it can be effectively used for the prevention and treatment of cancer overexpressing CD9.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the pharmaceutical composition for cancer treatment or metastasis inhibition containing expression or activation inhibitors of MAP7D2 protein as an active ingredient. More specifically a novel anti-cancer therapeutic target has been discovered using data-mining techniques by building a large-scale gene expression database of human cancer tissues, and, based on the gene expression profiles of cancer cell lines, appropriate cancer cell lines were selected and experimentally verified through the inhibition of candidate target genes. Through these, MAP7D2 has been verified as a novel potential anti-cancer target which is over-expressed in a variety of cancer tissues or cells, such as cancer tissues or cells of the kidney, lung, large-intestine, ovary, stomach and liver, and inhibition of which impedes the growth, movement, infiltration and metastasis of cancer cells, thereby leading to cell destruction. As such, expression levels of MAP7D2 can be useful as a diagnostic marker for cancer and an MAP7D2 protein expression or activation inhibitor can be used as an active ingredient in a pharmaceutical composition for cancer treatment or metastasis inhibition.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a transmembrane protease, serine (TMPRSS4) -specific human antibody, and more particularly to a human antibody including a complementarity determining region (CDR) and a framework region (FR) derived from a human antibody specifically bound to TMPRSS4. The TMPRSS4- specific human antibody expressed in the various kinds of cancer cells of the present invention may be used in diagnosis of the cancer, classification of the disease, visualization, treatment, and prognostic evaluation.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a Cytokeratin 17-specific human antibody, and more particularly, to a human antibody which specifically binds to Cytokeratin 17, is derived from a human, and comprises a complementarity determining region (CDR) and a framework region (FR). The Cytokeratin 17-specific human antibody of the present invention is useful in diagnosing cancer in which Cytokeratin 17 is overexpressed, and in the classification, imaging, treatment and prognosis assessment of diseases.
