Disclosed are transgenic animals and transfected cell lines expressing a protein associated with Alzheimer's Disease, neuroectodermal tumors, malignant astrocytomas, and glioblastomas. Also disclosed is the use of such transgenic animals and transfected cell lines to screen potential drug candidates for treating or preventing Alzheimer's disease, neuroectodermal tumors, malignant astrocytomas, and glioblastomas. The invention also relates to new antisense oligonucleotides, ribozymes, triplex forming DNA and external guide sequences that can be used to treat or prevent Alzheimer's disease, neuroectodermal tumors, malignant astrocytomas, and glioblastomas.
公开了表达与阿尔茨海默病、神经外胚层肿瘤、恶性星形细胞瘤和胶质母细胞瘤有关的蛋白质的转基因动物和转染细胞系。本发明还公开了利用这种转基因动物和转染细胞系来筛选治疗或预防阿尔茨海默病、神经外胚层肿瘤、恶性星形细胞瘤和胶质母细胞瘤的潜在候选药物。本发明还涉及可用于治疗或预防阿尔茨海默病、神经外胚层肿瘤、恶性星形细胞瘤和胶质母细胞瘤的新型反义寡核苷酸、核酶、三重形成 DNA 和外部引导序列。
