Methods of use of medicaments having neovascularization promoting action, which medicaments comprise a retinoid antagonist such as 4-(5H-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-5,7,7,10,10-pentamethylbenzo[e]naphtho[2,3-b][1-,4]diazepin-13-yl)benzoic acid as an active ingredient.
摘要:
A nickel-free stainless steel stent using a stainless steel which does not substantially contain Ni in the stainless steel, has a metal allergy onset-preventing effect, and is excellent in terms of precision workability, strength, and ductility, is provided. The nickel-free stainless steel stent is characterized by using a stainless steel containing, as a chemical composition, from 15 to 30% by mass of Cr, from 0.97 to 2% by mass of Mo, and from 0.5 to 1% by mass of N, with the remainder being Fe, and optionally containing inevitable impurities.
摘要:
Disclosed is a biocompatible device surface-coated on the base material thereof with a biocompatible polymer layer having antithrombogenicity and endothelialization activity, and embedded in or attached to a living body for use. The polymer layer comprises a polymer matrix formed by the crosslinking of a cell-adhesive peptide-containing polymer.
摘要:
An RNA capable of suppressing the expression of KLF5 gene, which comprises a sequence consisting of 15 to 30 contiguous nucleotides of KLF5 mRNA and a sequence complementary to the sequence, and which has been designed from the nucleotide sequence of Kruppel-like factor 5 (KLF5) cDNA. Specifically, a double-stranded RNA having a strand of a sequence shown in any one of SEQ ID NOS: 2 to 16 and a strand of a sequence complementary to the sequence, in which 2 uridylic acids are added to the 3′-terminus of each of the strands. By transfecting the RNA or a vector for expression of the RNA into cells, the expression of KLF5 gene in the cells can be suppressed. The RNA or a vector for expression of the RNA can be used as a therapeutic agent for cardiovascular disease or cancer.

摘要:
Provided is a new prophylactic and/or therapeutic agent for lymphedema, for which until now there has been no effective means of treatment, and the prophylactic and/or therapeutic agent for lymphedema comprises, as an active ingredient, a compound represented by the following formula (1), a lactone derivative thereof, or a salt of the compound or lactone derivative: wherein R1 represents an organic group, X represents —CH2CH2— or —CH=CH—, and R2 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group.
摘要:
There is provided a composition comprising an RNA-encapsulated liposome, the RNA comprising a sequence being of 15 to 30 contiguous nucleotides of mRNA of a target gene associated with a disease in an eyeball, and a sequence complementary to the sequence, wherein the liposome is capable of reaching an eyeball, and the like. The liposome in which an RNA is encapsulated is, for example, a liposome composing a complex particle comprising a lead particle and the RNA as constituent components, the lead particle comprising a cationic lipid, and a bilayer lipid membrane for coating the complex particle. The bilayer lipid membrane is a bilayer lipid membrane comprising a neutral lipid, and a lipid derivative, a fatty acid derivative or an aliphatic hydrocarbon derivative of a water-soluble substance as constituent components.
