To improve the selectivity of our therapy system, we utilize hTERT, the cancer-specific promoter, and HULC, the HCC-specific promoter, to open an AND-gated system to target HCC (Hepatocellular carcinoma). pGL3-Basic vector, a promoterless vector is used for measuring the activity of promoter with a luciferase assay. We determined the activity of the two promoters by it. Experimental results show that the promoter has a good startup efficiency,although the efficiency is lower than CMV promoter.

Applications of BBa_K2624000

To improve the selectivity of our system, we utilize hTERT, the cancer-specific promoter, along with HULC, a HCC(Hepatocellular carcinoma)-specific promoter, to open an "AND" gate system to target HCC. We use pGL3-Basic vector, a promoter-less vector for the luciferase assay to determine the transcriptional activity of these promoters. We add the promoters on pGL3-Basic vector and measure the OD value of the luciferase activity. We choose SV40, a highly activated promoter in both cancer cells and normal cells as positive control (PGL3-CON). Results show that hTERT promoter has a good efficiency in cancer cells.
