Title:
AN ANTI-TUMOR RNA INTERFERENCE DRUG FOR MULTIDRUG RESISTANCE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2005/002594
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The invention discloses a kind of anti-tumor RNA interference drug for multidrug resistance, and provides a group of polynucleotide sequences of RNAi used as medicament against leukemia and other tumors in which the expression of multidrug resistance gene (mdr-1) and the functionality of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) are involved. The drug aims to inhibit the expression of multidrug resistance gene (mdr-1) and the functionality of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in tumor cells, increases the sensitivity of leukemia to the normal chemotherapy medicament, and enhances the effect that the chemotherapy medicament kills cells of malignancy in the hemopoietic system.
