Disclosed are proteinaceous coagulation factor XIIa (FXIIa) inhibitors and their use for treating or inhibiting the development of a condition in which inhibiting FXIIa stimulates or effects treatment or inhibition of the development of the condition. Suitable conditions include thromboembolism-associated conditions such as acute coronary syndrome, stroke, deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, a thrombosis, a thrombosis-associated hematologic disorder such as sickle cell disease or thrombophilia, and an inflammatory condition or a condition related to the kallikrein-kinin system such as hereditary angioedema, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis or lupus. The proteinaceous FXIIa inhibitors are also useful for treating or inhibiting thrombus and/or embolus formation. In vitro methods for identifying a disulfide rich peptide which binds to a target substance are also disclosed.
摘要:
A material film is formed as a thin film having a thickness of 1 μm on a surface of a glass substrate. A plurality of micro-chambers having a diameter of 5 μm are formed in the material film to be arrayed at a high density. The respective chambers filled with an aqueous test solution have openings that are liquid-sealed by a lipid bilayer membrane to provide a high-density micro-chamber array. Significant downsizing of the micro-chambers enhances a change in concentration by a reaction of one biomolecule in the chamber and thereby increases the detection sensitivity. In the configuration that a large number of micro-chambers are formed at a high density, even in the case of an extremely slow reaction of the biomolecule, the reaction proceeds in any of the chambers. This configuration accordingly enables the reaction of the biomolecule to be detected with high sensitivity.

摘要:
Object of the present invention is to provide a peptide functioning as a c-Met agonist. The present invention provides a peptide complex comprising two or more peptides that bind to a c-Met protein and a linker that links the two or more peptides to one another. Such a peptide complex promotes autophosphorylation of the c-Met protein and induces cell growth.
摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide a peptide excellent in resistance against metabolism, having a stable structure in vivo, and capable of penetrating a cell membrane and reaching in cells.The present invention provides a macrocyclic peptide having a macrocyclic structure comprised of four or more amino acids. At least two amino acids not adjacent to each other have a hydrophobic side chain and the hydrophobic side chains interact with each other inside the ring of the macrocyclic peptide in a hydrophilic environment.
摘要:
