Abstract:
Disclosed are a human serum albumin-siRNA carrier system having siRNA bound to human serum albumin and a user thereof, and especially, human serum albumin-siRNA carrier system, which has a biodegradable covalent bond between human serum albumin polymer and siRNA and is stable in a living body, and a user thereof.The human serum albumin-siRNA carrier system having the biodegradable covalent bond between the human serum albumin and the siRNA exhibits high siRNA delivery efficiency to a target site in the living body. Therefore, the human serum albumin-siRNA carrier system may allow siRNA for therapy to be efficiently delivered to a target site such as cancer tissues in the living body even by being administrated in a relatively low concentration, which may result in a wide use for therapies of various diseases.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for manufacturing composite nanoparticles. The apparatus comprises: a first precursor supply unit vaporizing a first precursor and supplying it to a reaction unit; a second precursor supply unit vaporizing a second precursor and supplying it to the reaction unit; the reaction unit producing composite nanoparticles by reacting the vaporized first precursor with the vaporized second precursor; an oxygen supply line supplying an oxygen source to the reaction unit; and a collection unit collecting the composite nanoparticles produced by the reaction unit. Since gas phase synthesis occurs in different stages using the U-shaped reaction chamber, aggregation is prevented and composite nanoparticles of uniform size and high specific surface area can be produced easily.

Abstract:
Methods of preparing a self-assembled matrix from cell-derived extracellular matrice, and of inducing cell proliferation and differentiation by using the self-assembled matrix, and applying the self-assembled matrix into cell therapy. In detail, unique extracellular matrices obtained from particular cells are collected and then subjected to decellularization in order to form a self-assembled matrix including nano fibers only formed of extracellular matrix. In addition, the matrix prepared as described above provides a platform that is effective for the induction of the mass proliferation or differentiation of cells, and thus, may be applied in manufacturing cell therapy products.
