Title:
NUCLEIC ACID MOLECULE CAPABLE OF BINDING TO HMGB1, AND USE THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/007876
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed are a nucleic acid molecule which is capable of binding to HMGB1 protein, and a use of the nucleic acid molecule. Specifically, a nucleic acid molecule having a dissociation constant for HMGB1 protein of 5 × 10-7 or less can be used as a nucleic acid molecule that is capable of binding to HMGB1 protein. Since the nucleic acid molecule capable of binding to HMGB1 protein is able to bind to HMGB1 protein, which is known as a cause of diseases such as cancers and inflammation, preventive and curative effects on such diseases can be attained by having the nucleic acid molecule bound to HMGB1 protein in vivo.
