Title:
METHOD OF TUMOR SUPPRESSION AND EVALUATION OF ANTICANCER AGENT BASED ON GSK3β INHIBITORY EFFECT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2006/073202
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
It is intended to provide a novel means of treating and diagnosing cancer by clarifying the participation of glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) in the survival and proliferation of cancer cells. Namely, a method of suppressing the survival and proliferation of cancer cells by inhibiting the expression of GSK3β or the activity of the above-described enzyme having been activated by the phosphorylation at the 216th tyrosine residue thereof; and a method of developing a novel anticancer agent and a method of evaluating an anticancer agent based on the inhibitory effect as described above.
