Abstract:
The present invention aims at converting factor IX into a molecule with enhanced activity which provides an alternative for replacement therapy and gene therapy for hemophilia B. Using recombinant techniques, factor IX with replacement at positions 86, 277, and 338 exhibits better clotting activity than recombinant wild type factor IX.
Abstract:
A method for treating ischemia that would benefit from angiogenesis is disclosed. The method comprises administering to a subject in need thereof a composition comprising: a) a fragment of human thrombomodulin in a therapeutically effective amount; and b) a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier; wherein the fragment comprises the amino acids Ala242 to Ser515 of SEQ ID NO: 2.

Abstract:
The present invention aims at converting factor IX into a molecule with enhanced activity which provides an alternative for replacement therapy and gene therapy for hemophilia B. Using recombinant techniques, factor IX having substitution of amino acid residue of SEQ ID NO: 7 at amino acid position selected from the group consisting of 86, 277, and 338 (exclude the circumstance of a single substitution at amino acid position 338) exhibits better clotting activity than recombinant wild type factor IX.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to compositions, kits and treating methods for the alteration cell-cell adhesion, transport, or permeation properties of tissues. The present invention also relates to the application of drug(s) or peptide(s), compound or gene delivery, DNA or RNA(i), cosmetic or therapeutic use of the compositions and kits.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for treatment of wound healing, comprising administering to a patient in need of such treatment with an effective amount of a polypeptide comprising amino acid sequence or a conservative variant thereof having EGF-like domain of thrombomodulin. The invention also relates to a composition for the use of accelerating wound healing, comprising a polypeptide comprising amino acid sequence or a conservative variant thereof having EGF-like domain of thrombomodulin.
Abstract:
Microplasmin and microplasminogen are plasmin and plasminogen derivatives produced by the action of plasmin non plasmin/plasminogen at high pH. The action of plasmin at this pH cleaves the heavy (A) chain of plasmin at the Arg.sub.529 - Lys.sub.503 or Lys.sub.530 -Leu.sub.531 bond and promotes disulfide bond rearrangement, producing microplasmin or microplasminogen consisting of a 30 or 31 residue C-terminal peptide derived from the A chain bound through new disulfide bonds to the intact B-chain of plasmin or plasminogen. The resulting products are significantly reduced in size and retain native activity.
Abstract:
The present application relates to dual anti-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory effects of recombinant thrombomodulin domain 1 (TMD1). Specifically, an isolated recombinant polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence that is at least 80% identical to TMD1 for use in treating an eye disease and/or an eye disorder associated with pathological ocular angiogenesis (POA) in a subject in need thereof is disclosed. The length of the recombinant polypeptide is no more than 200 amino acid residues. The eye disease and/or the eye disorder may be at least one selected from the group consisting of retinopathy of prematurity, diabetic retinopathy, and age-related macular degeneration. Use of TMD1 in the manufacture of a medicament for treating an eye disease and/or an eye disorder associated with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced ocular angiogenesis and/or hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α)-VEGF pathway is also disclosed.
Abstract:
A method for blocking, inhibiting and/or decreasing cluster of differentiation 14 (CD14) function, CD14-mediated cellular response and/or treating CD14-mediated pathological conditions is disclosed. The method comprises administering to a subject in need thereof a pharmaceutical composition comprising: (a) a therapeutically effective amount of a recombinant protein comprising an amino acid sequence that is at least 80% identical to SEQ ID NO: 1, wherein the recombinant protein does not comprises a lectin-like domain 1 of a human thrombomodulin; and (b) a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle, carrier, diluent, excipients, and/or salt.
