| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A DNA and/or RNA-alkylating damage-repair enzyme called prostate cancer antigen (PCA)-1 is highly expressed in clinical androgen-independent prostate cancer cells and pancreatic cancer cells. Genetic inhibition of the enzymatic activity by injecting siRNA effectively inhibited the growth of prostate and pancreatic cancer cells. Therefore, PCA-1 inhibitor would be a novel and clinically effective anti-cancer drug against prostate cancer, even for hormone independent varieties and pancreatic cancer.
On the other hand, on the guidance of inhibition against PCA-1 enzymatic activity, we tried to search for anti-cancer substances from extracts of medicinal plants. We found several active extract and isolate the active components by the assay-guided separation.
