Abstract

The present invention relates to a method or pharmaceutical composition for prevention or treatment of brain tumor by using streptonigrin and an anticancer agent. Specifically, the composition comprising streptonigrin and temozolomide, or streptonigrin and bevacizumab (Avastin) according to the present invention shows an excellent inhibitory effect on brain tumor cell lines, compared to the use of the individual compounds alone and can be effectively used in a method or as a pharmaceutical composition for prevention or treatment of brain tumors. Particularly, streptonigrin and temozolomide or bevacizumab may be administered simultaneously or sequentially. The use of streptonigrin in combination of radiotherapy can result in a significant increase in inhibitory effect against brain tumor cell lines.

정상세포는 필요에 따라 규칙적이고 탄력적인 증식과 억제를 할 수 있는 반면에 암세포는 무제한의 증식을 하며, 이는 미분화 세포로 구성된 세포덩어리로서 종양이라고도 한다. 이러한 암세포는 주위의 조직으로 침투하고 신체의 다른 기관으로 전이가 되어 심각한 고통을 수반하고 결국 죽음을 초래한다. 의학의 발전에도 불구하고, 국내 암환자 발생자수는 지속적으로 증가하여 최근 10년간 약 44%가 증가하였으며, 국제적으로도 항암제 시장 역시 증가하여 연간 약 1000억 달러의 규모를 가지는 것으로 보고된 바 있다.Normal cells can perform regular and elastic proliferation and suppression as needed, whereas cancer cells proliferate indefinitely, which is also called a tumor as a cell mass composed of undifferentiated cells. These cancer cells penetrate into surrounding tissues and metastasize to other organs of the body, causing serious pain and eventually death. Despite the development of medicine, the number of cancer patients in Korea has continuously increased, increasing by about 44% in the last 10 years, and the market for anticancer drugs has also increased internationally, and has been reported to have a size of about 100 billion dollars per year.
항암제는 1세대 항암제인 화학항암제, 2세대 항암제인 표적항암제가 있으며, 이들의 부작용을 극복하고자 3세대 항암제로서 면역항암제가 개발되어 계속적으로 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 현재 암 치료에서 가장 큰 문제가 되는 점은 암의 재발에 있는데 그 이유는 암의 돌연변이가 다양하여 특정 암을 표적으로 하는 것이 어려울 뿐더러, 재발된 암의 치료 과정에서 사용한 항암제에 내성이 발생하는 경우가 비일비재하기 때문이이다. 결국, 원발암을 치료한 이후에도 전이 및 재발한 암에 의해 환자가 사망하는 경우가 대부분이다. 이에 따라, 항암제의 효과를 증진시키기 위해, 항암제를 혼합하여 병용치료하고자 하는 전략이 제시되고 있다.Anticancer drugs are chemotherapy drugs, which are first-generation anti-cancer drugs, and targeted anti-cancer drugs, which are second-generation anti-cancer drugs. To overcome these side effects, immuno-cancer drugs have been developed as third-generation anti-cancer drugs and research is ongoing. However, the biggest problem in the treatment of cancer is the recurrence of cancer, which is why it is difficult to target a specific cancer due to various mutations in cancer, and resistance to anticancer drugs used in the treatment of recurrent cancer occurs. This is because the case is non-existent. As a result, most patients die from metastases and recurring cancers even after treatment of primary cancer. Accordingly, in order to enhance the effectiveness of the anti-cancer agent, a strategy to mix and treat the anti-cancer agent has been proposed.
트랜스글루타미나제(Transglutaminase 2, TGase2)는 특이 펩티드에 결합된 글루타민 잔기의 γ-카르복사미드기와 다양한 아민들 사이의 결합을 촉진하는 효소로, 일차적으로는 손상의 예방과 방어 및 복구를 촉진하는데 있어서 주요한 역할을 하는 것으로 알려졌으나, 최근 연구에 의하면 비정상적으로 과도한 발현이 나타나면 신경퇴행성 질환, 죽상동맥경화증, 염증성 질환, 및 자가면역 질환과 같은 질병의 발생에 원인을 제공할 수 있는 것으로 보고된 바 있다. 특히, TGase2의 발현이 p53을 중합화하고 불안정하게 하여 소멸시킨다는 것이 보고되었으며, 이에 따라 TGase2의 억제를 통해 TGase2가 과발현된 신장암에 대한 항암 효과를 나타낼 수 있음이 보고된 바 있다. Transglutaminase (Transglutaminase 2, TGase2) is an enzyme that promotes the binding between the γ-carboxamide group and various amines of a glutamine residue bound to a specific peptide, primarily promoting damage prevention, defense and repair Although it is known to play a major role in recent studies, recent studies have reported that abnormally excessive expression may contribute to the development of diseases such as neurodegenerative diseases, atherosclerosis, inflammatory diseases, and autoimmune diseases. There is a bar. In particular, it has been reported that the expression of TGase2 polymerizes and destabilizes p53 and thus disappears, and accordingly, it has been reported that TGase2 may have an anti-cancer effect on re-expressed kidney cancer through inhibition of TGase2.
