Abstract:
Therapeutic compounds for red blood cell-mediated delivery of an active pharmaceutical ingredient to a target cell are described. The therapeutic compounds are configured to bind CD47 on the surface of a red blood cell and to be subsequently transferred to CD47 on the surface of the target cell, the therapeutic compound ultimately being internalized by the target cell via endocytosis. The target cell may be a fibrotic cell.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a pharmaceutical composition for combination therapy for preventing or treating cancer, which contains a first pharmaceutical ingredient containing a drug conjugate wherein an anticancer agent is bound at one end of an amphiphilic peptide represented by SEQ ID NO 1 and a poloxamer; and a second pharmaceutical ingredient containing an anti-PD-L1 antibody; as active ingredients. The pharmaceutical composition significantly inhibits cancer growth in in-vivo experiments and exhibits an effect of significantly enhancing immunotherapeutic effect by activating immune cells in cancerous tissues. In particular, the pharmaceutical composition for combination therapy according to the present disclosure has superior tumor accumulation efficiency and selectivity as compared to existing anticancer agents, and is very stable with little toxicity to normal tissues other than cancerous tissues.
Abstract:
Therapeutic compounds for inhibiting and reducing the expression of cell surface proteins and methods for treating cancer, inflammation, and diabetes using the therapeutic compounds.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a liver tumor-targeting ultrasound contrast agent. The ultrasound contrast agent includes a gas-generating core and a hyaluronic acid shell. The ultrasound contrast agent can be specifically delivered to liver cells. This specific delivery enables easy differentiation between normal liver cells and liver tumor cells by ultrasound imaging. In addition, the ultrasound contrast agent is highly stable in aqueous condition and causes no cytotoxicity. Also disclosed is a method for preparing the ultrasound contrast agent.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel anti-miRNA single-stranded nucleic acid maleimide derivative, which comprises an anti-miRNA single-stranded nucleic acid having a nucleic acid sequence complementary to a nucleic acid sequence of an miRNA. Further, the present invention provides an anti-miRNA single-stranded nucleic acid-serum albumin conjugate in which serum albumin is covalently bonded to the anti-miRNA single-stranded nucleic acid maleimide derivative via the maleimide group.
