Abstract:
A mesenchymal stem cell isolated from human umbilical cord blood is provided to be differentiated into a neuron or a neuroglia cell with moving to an injured portion when engrafted in vivo, thereby being usefully used for cell replacement therapy and gene therapy of treating nerve injury diseases. An internal administering therapeutic agent for treating nerve injury diseases comprises a mesenchymal cell as an effective ingredient, wherein the mesenchymal cell is a mesenchymal stem cell derived from umbilical cord blood and the never injury disease is selected from the group consisting of stroke, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Pick's disease, Huntington's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, traumatic central nervous system disease and spinal cord injury disease. A method for treating the nerve injury disease comprises a step of administering a therapeutically effective amount of the therapeutic agent internally.
Abstract:
A composition comprising activated marrow stromal cells(MSCs) is provided to show strong cytotoxicity against glioma cell line, thereby being used as a source of an effective adoptive cell transmission in adults and kids suffering from malignant glioma. The composition for treating malignant glioma comprises MSC as an effective ingredient. The MSC is activated by interleukin-2(IL-2), a combination of IL-2 and IL-15, granulocyte monocyte colony stimulating factor(GM-CSF), a combination of GM-CSF and IL-2, wherein the MSC expresses perforin, gamma-INF, FasL more than before it is activated.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an anticancer use of combination of stem cells secreting TRAIL (Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) and MK886, and more specifically, to a function of reinforcing trail-intermediated cell killing activity by sensitizing neuroglioma cells by molecular mechanism such as CHOP inducement, upregulation of DR5 expression, downregulation of surviving, activation of caspase, activation of p38 MAPK, etc according to combination thereof.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An anti-adhesion agent containing hyaluronic acid epoxide derivative hydrogel and a method for manufacturing the same are provided to prevent adhesion between tissues without side effects. CONSTITUTION: An anti-adhesion agent contains hyaluronic acid epoxide derivative hydrogen. The particle size of the hydrogel is 100-300 um. The viscosity and crosslinking density of the hydrogel are 100,000 cP (0.02 Hz)-6,000,000 cP (0.02 Hz) and 0.2 mol%-100 mol%, respectively. The hydrogel is prepared by reacting hyaluronic acid and epoxide crosslinking agent in NaOH solution or crossliking 0.1-200 weight parts of crosslinking agent based on 100 weight parts of repeat unit of the hyaluronic acid.
