| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, the following was clarified with respect to human EphA2 antisense RNA (AS). 1. Identification and expression of human EphA2 AS. 2. Design of sense deoxynucleotide (seODN) to inhibit human EphA2 AS expression and effects and interacting region on mRNA. 3. Physiological functions of breast cancer cells of human EphA2 AS. These results suggested that human EphA2 AS stabilizes the mRNA through the limited region and is involved in cell proliferation and cell migration. Furthermore, miRNAs targeting human EphA2 AS and mRNA were identified, and the possibility of a synergistic effect by combination with seODN was proposed.
