摘要: Provided are anti-PAD4 antibodies having excellent properties and an excellent method for treatment of RA. Used are anti-PAD4 antibodies that specifically bind to an epitope containing positions 345, 347, and 348 of PAD4. These anti-PAD4 antibodies may inhibit the citrullination activity of PAD4. In addition, these anti-PAD4 antibodies may have a KD (M) of 9.0×10−9 or less. Optionally, the anti-PAD4 antibody and a TNFα inhibitor are used in combination.

摘要: Provided is a phototherapeutic apparatus including: a probe that is held and operated by a user and provided with a photo-irradiation unit that performs irradiation with light beams; and a body provided with a control unit that controls the light beams. The body is provided with a read unit that reads a treatment protocol registered in an IC card (mobile memory medium), and a monitor (operation indication unit) that indicates a region to be irradiated with the light beams to the user, the region being set in the treatment protocol, and the control unit causes the monitor to indicate the region to be irradiated and causes the photo-irradiation unit to perform the irradiation with the light beams at a set value set in the treatment protocol. It is possible to perform the irradiation with the light beams in accordance with the treatment protocol and safely use the phototherapeutic apparatus.

摘要: It is a subject to provide a means of preparing highly pure vascular endothelial progenitor cells in a simple and low-cost manner. It is also a subject to provide a method for efficiently proliferating vascular endothelial progenitor cells. High-purity vascular endothelial progenitor cells are prepared by the process of differentiating pluripotent stem cells into vascular endothelial progenitor cells and purifying the vascular endothelial progenitor cells using a difference in adhesion ability between the vascular endothelial progenitor cells constituting the cell population obtained in the process and other cells. On the other hand, vascular endothelial progenitor cells are cultured and expanded in the presence of a ROCK inhibitor, a GSK-3β inhibitor, and a TGF-β receptor inhibitor in addition to basic fibroblast growth factor and epidermal growth factor.

摘要: An object is to prepare an intestinal organoid having a characteristic close to the small intestine of a living body, from a pluripotent stem cell. An intestinal organoid is prepared from a pluripotent stem cell, by the following steps of: (1) differentiating the pluripotent stem cell into an endoderm-like cell; (2) differentiating the endoderm-like cell obtained in step (1) into an intestinal stem cell-like cell; (3) culturing the intestinal stem cell-like cell obtained in step (2) in the presence of an epidermal growth factor, a fibroblast growth factor, a TGF β receptor inhibitor, a GSK-3 β inhibitor, and a ROCK inhibitor; (4) culturing the cell obtained in step (3) to form a spheroid; and (5) differentiating the spheroid formed in step (4) to form an intestinal organoid, wherein the differentiation includes culturing in the presence of an epidermal growth factor, a BMP inhibitor, and a Wnt signal activator. Also, a plane culture system is prepared by subjecting the cells constituting the intestinal organoid formed in step (5) to plane culture in the presence of an epidermal growth factor and a TGF β receptor inhibitor. A highly functional evaluation system having the villi structure is constructed by using air-liquid interface culture in the plane culture.

摘要: Provided is a technique of predicting prognosis of skin cancer. A method for prognosis prediction of skin cancer includes: a step of obtaining a correlation amount correlated with an expression level of a glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in a sample collected from a patient with the skin cancer; and a step of determining that the prognosis of the skin cancer is poorer when the correlation amount is large than that when the correlation amount is small.
