안녕하세요 성균관대학교 생명공학대학 융합생명공학과 'ReCode 연구실' 입니다. 저희 연구팀은 혁신적인 다학제적 접근으로 면역 미세환경을 리프로그래밍해 난치성 질환의 치료 저항성을 극복하고 무너진 면역 균형을 회복하는 데 주력하고 있습니다. 이를 위해 세포외소포(EV), 항체 약물 접합체(ADC), 펩타이드 약물 접합체(PDC), 지질 나노입자(LNP) 등 리프로그래밍 플랫폼을 개발하고 PROTAC, miRNA, siRNA, mRNA와 같은 리프로그래밍 도구를 활용해 유전자 발현과 단백질 활성을 정교하게 조절합니다. 이러한 기술을 융합함으로써 세포 기능과 면역 반응을 새롭게 조정하여 난치성 질환을 겨냥한 맞춤형 표적 치료법을 창출합니다.
Our team, “ReCode Laboratory” focuses on reprogramming the immune microenvironment to address intractable diseases. Our goal is to overcome therapeutic resistance and restore immune balance through innovative and multidisciplinary approaches. To this end, we develop advanced delivery platforms—such as extracellular vesicles (EVs), antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), peptide-drug conjugates (PDCs), and lipid nanoparticles (LNPs)—to enable the targeted and efficient delivery of molecular reprogramming tools. These include PROTACs, microRNAs (miRNAs), small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), and messenger RNAs (mRNAs), which allow precise modulation of gene expression and protein function. By integrating these technologies, we reprogram cellular functions and immune responses, ultimately creating personalized and targeted therapies for hard-to-treat diseases.
