Title:
COMPOSITION CONTAINING INHIBITORS OF THE EXPRESSION OR ACTIVITY OF SH3RF2 FOR PREVENTING OR TREATING CANCER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/090283
Kind Code:
A2
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition containing inhibitors of the expression or activity of SH3 domain containing ring finger 2 (SH3RF2) for the preventing or treating cancer. More specifically, since the SH3RF2 protein, the expression level of which is increased in various cancer tissues, binds to PAK4, which is a cancer-associated gene, to regulate an apoptosis inhibitory function of the PAK4 protein by ubiquitination activity in the RING domain of SH3RF2, cancer cells, in which the expression of SH3RF2 is inhibited, sensitively respond to the induction of apoptosis to facilitate apoptosis and reduce in vivo tumorigenicity, such that an inhibitor of the expression or activity of SHRF2 may be useful as a composition for the prevention or treatment of cancer.
