    摘要: Mitochondria modified by a targeting protein, according to one embodiment of the present invention, can be effectively delivered to a target. In addition, when a protein of interest bound to the modified mitochondria is delivered into a cell, various activities can be exhibited. The modified mitochondria can effectively cause cancer tissue death, and thus can also be used as an anticancer agent. Furthermore, various activities are exhibited according to a protein of interest loaded on modified mitochondria, and thus the modified mitochondria can be applied in the treatment of various diseases. Additionally, a fusion protein comprising a protein of interest and a fusion protein comprising a targeting protein, according to one embodiment of the present invention, can be used in order to modify mitochondria. Moreover, mitochondria modified with the fusion proteins exhibits various effects in a target cell.

    摘要: Provided are a method for obtaining active mitochondria by freezing platelets and a use of isolated mitochondria, and more specifically, to a method for obtaining mitochondria by thawing platelets after freezing the same and a pharmaceutical composition containing the mitochondria obtained by the method as an active ingredient. The present disclosure, by providing a method for obtaining mitochondria by thawing platelets in a frozen state in a preservation solution, not only enables to obtain mitochondria in which the activity is stably maintained, but also enables to provide a commercial value for donor platelets that are discarded after refrigeration for a short period of time. Additionally, the pharmaceutical composition containing platelet-derived mitochondria obtained by the above method may be effectively used to treat various diseases caused by mitochondrial dysfunction.

    摘要: Provided is a composition for injection containing isolated mitochondria. More specifically, provided is a liquid composition for injection containing glycine, saccharide, buffer, and mitochondria, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the liquid composition for injection as an active ingredient. The liquid composition for injection according to the present disclosure is capable of securing the safety of a mitochondrial therapeutic and maintaining the activity of mitochondria, by enhancing the stability of mitochondria for prevention or treatment of mitochondria-related diseases and preventing and inhibiting formation of blood clots in the blood of a subject who is administered with the same. Accordingly, the pharmaceutical composition according to the present disclosure may solve the aggregation that may occur when mitochondria are administered in the body and thus enables to safely and effectively inject mitochondria into the body to be used for the purpose of preventing and treating various diseases caused by mitochondrial dysfunction.
