Title:
PROMOTER CAPABLE OF PROMOTING INHIBITION OF EXPRESSION OF MRNA BY RNA INTERFERENCE, AND USE THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/051459
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a promoter capable of promoting the inhibition of the expression of mRNA by RNA interference. The promoter according to the present invention is characterized by comprising at least one active ingredient selected from the group consisting of resveratrol, a resveratrol derivative, a tautomer, a geometric isomer and a stereoisomer of resveratrol or the resveratrol derivative, and salts thereof, wherein the active ingredient can promote the transcription of a nucleic acid capable of inhibiting the expression of mRNA by RNA interference and/or the expression of Argonaute-2 (Ago2). The nucleic acid is preferably miRNA. The promoter according to the present invention is applicable to, for example, a method for treating a disease utilizing RNA interference, a medicinal agent, a food additive, the analysis of a gene by means of knock down, and others
