<p>EpCAM is a trans membrane glycoprotein which is expressed in epithelial cells and shows high level expression in various type of human epithelial carcinomas[2].Using this promoter, reporter genes can be expressed only in cancer cells.</p>

<p>MiRNA is a class of non-coding RNA.MiRNA binds the miRNA-recognition element in the 3' untranslated region of the target gene. MiRNA shows the tissue-specific expression pattern. In our project, we use miRNA-142, which is expressed only in hematopoietic cells[3].Adding the recognition element of miRNA-142 in the 3' untranslated region of the reporter genes, leaky expression in non-carcinoma hematopoietic cells can be reduced.</p> </div>
