An immunoreactive substance carrier according to an embodiment of the present invention may stably deliver various immunoreactive substances including antibodies and/or cytokines, to a target site, thereby exhibiting excellent immunotherapeutic effects. Therefore, a composition including the immunoreactive substance carrier can be used for immunotherapy, thereby having excellent effects in the prevention or treatment of cancer or various immune diseases.

Immunoreactant carrier

A method for treating a flavivirus infection includes administering to a subject in need thereof a composition which includes at least one of gentamicin sulfate, netilmicin, tobramycin, paromomycin, amikacin, capreomycin, trifluoperazine, dihydrostreptomycin, hydroxychloroquine, thioridazine HCl, efavirenz, miltefosine, nystatin, micafungin, bleomycin, resminostat, montelukast, norfloxacin, nedaplatin and cephalothin, which can exhibit excellent growth inhibition or killing effects of various species of flavivirus genus.

Pharmaceutical composition for prevention or treatment of flavivirus infection

A composition according to an embodiment of the present invention includes nucleic acid molecules which are capable of effectively inhibiting the expression level of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) and collagen by RNA interference (RNAi), thereby preventing or treating a variety of fibroproliferative diseases due to overexpression of CTGF or collagen.

Composition for inhibiting CTGF expression

A nucleic acid carrier according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes CpG-ODN-RNA conjugate and a porous silica particle carrying the conjugate inside pores thereof. In this regard, the nucleic acid carrier of the present invention can stably deliver loaded nucleic acid molecules to a body and release the same to a target, thereby increasing Type 1 interferon and exhibiting RNA-inherent functions.

RNA and nucleic acid carrier including the same

A composition according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a banaba leaf extract, a guava leaf extract or a mixture thereof. The composition inhibits photooxidation of A2E due to blue light, inhibits a death of retinal pigment epithelial cells induced by blue light, and inhibits a damage to outer nuclear layers of visual cells in an animal model with blue light-induced macular degeneration, and thus can be beneficially used as a composition for preventing or treating macular degeneration and as a health functional food for preventing or alleviating macular degeneration.
