Research Abstract |
Malignant lymphoma has been one of the hematological malignancies of which prognosis is still poor. The most possible reason of poor-prognosis is the resistance against conventional chemotherapeutic reagents, which are expected to induce apoptotic and/or necrotic death in lymphoma cells. Therefore, novel therapy with unique mechanism is required. Then, we have chosen the strategy inducing autolytic cell death, autophagy since the signaling of autophagic cell death does not depend on the apoptotic and necrotic signaling. For the induction of autophagy, we have used siRNA against mTOR. For the delivery of siRNA and the targeting of B-cell lymphoma, we have developed anti-CD19-targeted siRNA-PEG/KALA PECM system.
