The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating angiogenic diseases comprising inhibitors of NUP153 gene expression or NUP153 activity as active ingredient and a method for screening an agent for preventing or treating angiogenic diseases. According to the present invention, inhibition of the NUP153 gene expression or the NUP153 activity reduces export of mRNA of a pro-angiogenic factor (VEGF, HGF and bFGF) from nucleus. In addition, inhibition of the NUP153 gene expression or the NUP153 activity has effect that angiogenesis are inhibited by inhibition of invasion and tube formation in a dose-dependent manner without showing toxicity. Therefore, the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention may be used for preventing or treating a variety of angiogenesis-related diseases, and the method for screening of the present invention may be valuably used in finding a new agent for preventing or treating angiogenic diseases.
本发明提供了一种用于预防或治疗血管生成性疾病的药物组合物,包括作为活性成分的NUP153基因表达或NUP153活性的抑制剂,并提供了一种筛选用于预防或治疗血管生成性疾病的药剂的方法。根据本发明,抑制NUP153基因表达或NUP153活性会减少促血管生成因子(VEGF、HGF和bFGF)的mRNA从细胞核的输出。此外,抑制NUP153基因表达或NUP153活性的作用会通过抑制侵袭和管道形成以剂量依赖的方式抑制血管生成,而不显示毒性。因此,本发明的药物组合物可用于预防或治疗各种与血管生成相关的疾病,而本发明的筛选方法可有价值地用于发现新的用于预防或治疗血管生成性疾病的药剂。
