摘要:
The invention provides a human cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) agonist epitope from the C-terminal subunit of mucin 1 (MUC1-C), which can be used as a peptide, polypeptide (protein), and/or in vaccine or other composition for the prevention or therapy of cancer. The invention further provides a nucleic acid encoding the peptide, protein, or polypeptide, a vector comprising the nucleic acid, a cell comprising the peptide, polypeptide, nucleic acid, or vector, and compositions thereof.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods for treating and preventing Staphylococcus aureus infection and/or a condition resulting from a S. aureus infection in a subject that involves administering compositions that inhibit S. aureus interaction with CXCR1/CXCR2 and DARC cellular receptors. The present invention further relates to novel compositions for carrying out these and other methods.

摘要:
Provided is a composition for preventing, treating or improving hair loss and promoting hair generation and hair growth, comprising a CXCL1 protein as an active ingredient. Further, provided is a composition for preventing, treating or improving hair loss and promoting hair generation and hair growth, comprising a CXCL1 protein and minoxidil as an active ingredient. The CXCL1 protein according to the present disclosure has no side effects at the time of treating hair loss and an excellent hair generation effect even in a short time and thus can be used as pharmaceutical products and usefully used as quasi-drugs, cosmetics and health functional foods.
摘要:
A C—C chemokine receptor 3 (CCR3) peptide analog that exhibits biased antagonism by binding to and inhibiting ligand-mediated signaling and chemotaxis while promoting the internalization and degradation of CCR3 is provided as is a method of using the peptide analog to treat, prevent, or ameliorate one or more symptoms of an eosinophil- or CCR3-mediated disease or condition.
摘要:
The present invention provides a combination therapy which relies on a small molecule immune stimulator—cyclic-di-nucleotide (CDN)—that activates DCs via a recently discovered cytoplasmic receptor known as STING (Stimulator of Interferon Genes) formulated with allogeneic human tumor cell lines engineered to secrete high amounts of GM-CSF. This combination therapy can provide an ideal synergy of multiple tumor associated antigens, DC recruitment and proliferation, coupled with a potent DC activation stimulus.
摘要:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a novel anticancer therapeutic having a high effect against solid cancers, lacking the side effects of chemotherapeutics, and being unlikely to cause resistance. Provided is a pharmaceutical composition for cancer treatment prepared by a method having: a stem cell production step for making immortalized stem cells by introducing four types of genes into deciduous tooth dental pulp stem cells obtained from the dental pulp of mammals; and a condition medium preparation step for culturing the immortalized stem cells for a predetermined length of time in serum-free medium at 23-27°C under conditions of low oxygen concentration at an oxygen concentration of from 0.5% to less than 20%, the pharmaceutical composition containing 1.5 times or more of insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) than is contained in condition medium prepared when culturing at an oxygen concentration of 20% and otherwise identical conditions.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method of stimulating vasculogenesis of myocardial infarct damaged tissue in a subject comprising: (a) removing stem cells from a location in the subject; (b) recovering endothelial progenitor cells in the stem cells; (c) introducing the endothelial progenitor cells from step (b) into a different location in the subject such that the precursors migrate to and stimulate revascularization of the tissue. The stem cells may be removed directly or by mobilization. The endothelial progenitor cells may be expanded before introduction into the subject. The present invention further provides a method of inducing angiogenesis in peri-infarct tissue. The present invention further provides a method of selectively increasing the trafficking of human bone marrow-derived endothelial cell precursors to the site of tissue damaged by ischemic injury which comprises: (a) administering endothelial progenitor cells to a subject; (b) administering chemokines to the subject so as to thereby attract endothelial cell precursors to the ischemic tissue. The present invention provides a method of stimulating vasculogenesis or angiogenesis of myocardial infarct damaged tissue in a subject comprising injecting allogeneic stem cells into a subject. The present invention further provides a method of improving myocardial function in a subject that has suffered a myocardial infarct comprising any of the instant methods. The present invention further provides a method of improving myocardial function in a subject that has suffered a myocardial infarct comprising injecting G-CSF or anti-CXCR4 antibody into the subject in order to mobilize endothelial progenitor cells.
