Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine expression of the Escherichia coli purine nucleoside phosphorylase/9-(2-deoxy-beta-dribofuranosyl)-6-methylpurine suicide gene system in human hepatocarcinoma cells together with a chimeric human alpha-fetoprotein promoter. In the presence of hypoxia, the Escherichia coli purine nucleoside phosphorylase gene directed by the human promoter is specifically expressed in two human hepatocarcinoma cell lines and, the therapy yields significant and selective cytotoxicity in both alpha-fetoprotein-positive and low-alpha-fetoprotein-generating hepatocarcinoma cells Escherichia coli
