Embodiment 1

[0036] The content of this example uses adenovirus as a carrier to control the expression of HIV Vpr gene by using the alpha-fetoprotein-hypoxia response element promoter, and proves that the preparation has a specific killing effect on tumor cells and can enhance chemotherapy effect. Specific steps are as follows:

[0037] Unless otherwise specified, all molecular cloning operations below are the same as those written by J. Sambrook and D.W. Russell.

[0038] 1. Construction of adenovirus shuttle plasmid pShuttlHREAFPVpr

Embodiment 2

[0150] Unless otherwise indicated, the specific experimental operations in this example are the same as those in Example 1.

[0151] Studies have shown that radiation therapy can arrest tumor cells in G2 phase, thereby inhibiting tumor growth. The content of this example is to use the radiation promoter (Egr-1) in the adenovirus vector to control the expression of the HIV Vpr gene, which proves that the preparation can specifically enhance the cell cycle G2 arrest effect on tumor cells after radiation induction, so that it can Enhance the effect of tumor radiation therapy. Specific steps are as follows:

Abstract

The invention relates to the tumour genes treatment, as more specific, it relates to a new tumour therapeutic agent and its usage. The tumour therapeutic agent contains human immunodeficiency virus Vpr gene, which is in control of a promoter and express specificly in the tumor structure. The invention can be used in tumor treatment, and can be the intensifier in tumor chemical therapy or radiation therapy.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to gene therapy for tumors. More specifically, the present invention relates to a novel tumor therapeutic agent and its use. Background technique [0002] Tumor is one of the most important diseases that endanger human health at present, and the incidence rate is constantly increasing, and it has become one of the most important causes of death for human beings. According to reports, in 1997, the expected number of deaths from cancer in the United States was 560,000, and the number of new cases was more than 1.38 million, accounting for the second place among all causes of death. From 1990 to 1992, the results of a sample survey in 27 provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions across the country showed that malignant tumors ranked second in the cause of death in my country, second only to respiratory diseases, and the crude death rate of tumors was 108.26 / 100,000, accounting for Consists of 17.94%. Recently, exper...
