    Abstract: The inventors of the present invention searched for a substance that is effective in treating a cartilage disorder, and as a result, found that, in an animal model of joint cartilage deficiency, an HMGB1 fragment peptide having a specific amino acid sequence exhibits the effect of reproducing a healthy cartilage tissue including a hyaline cartilage. Based on this finding, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition that contains the specific HMGB1 fragment peptide and that is for preventing and/or treating a cartilage disorder.

    Abstract: The present inventors identified many nuclear proteins contained in the extract of skin tissue by mass spectrometry, randomly selected multiple partial amino acid sequences of the nuclear proteins, chemically synthesized peptides consisting of the partial amino acid sequences, and examined their activity of mobilizing mesenchymal stem cells. As a result, it was found that these multiple peptides show the activity of mobilizing mesenchymal stem cells into peripheral blood, even though their amino acid sequences are completely different from each other. The inventors also found that fragment peptides of the nuclear proteins have therapeutic effects on diseases characterized by inflammation and abnormalities of the immune system (e.g., inflammatory bowel disease and psoriasis). Based on these findings, a new regenerative medicine technology that can overcome the problems of cell transplantation therapy is provided.

    Abstract: The present inventors discovered that an HMGB1 fragment peptide having a specific amino acid sequence exhibits an effect of suppressing erythema, scaling (desquamation), and thickening (infiltration) of the skin in an animal model of psoriasis. Based on these findings, pharmaceutical compositions for the prevention and/or treatment of psoriasis, which comprise the HMGB1 fragment peptide having the specific amino acid sequence are provided.
