The present invention relates to a recombinant adenovirus capable of regulating angiogenesis, which comprises (a) an adenoviral UR (inverted terminal repeat) nucleotide sequence; and (b) a transcription regulatory sequence for a VEGF-A (vascular endothelial growth factor-A) gene comprising (i) a nucleotide sequence encoding a DNA binding domain comprising a zinc finger domain to bind to a site in a VEGF-A promoter sequence as set forth in nucleotides 1-2362 of SEQ ID NO:1, and (ii) a transcription activation domain or a transcription inhibitory domain linked to the nucleotide sequence encoding the DNA binding domain; and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the recombinant adenovirus.

Recombinant adenoviruses capable of regulating angiogenesis

A novel gene delivery system and recombinant adenovirus includes a decorin-encoding sequence to enhance transduction efficiency of transgenes. A pharmaceutical anti-tumor composition includes the recombinant adenovirus, as well as a pharmaceutical composition having improved tissue penetration potency and a pharmaceutical composition for treating a disease or disorder associated with accumulation of excess extracellular matrix.

Decorin gene delivery system and cancer treatment

Disclosed is a recombinant adenovirus with a protein containing a VSV-G epitope derived from vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). Also, the present invention discloses a pharmaceutical composition comprising such a recombinant adenovirus and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Further, the present invention discloses a recombinant plasmid capable of expressing the recombinant adenovirus and a host cell transformed with the recombinant adenovirus.
