The present invention relates to a cell permeable fusion protein for strengthening regenerative potential of stem cells, and more particularly to a cell permeable fusion protein for strengthening regenerative potential of stem cells for stimulating the differentiation of stem cells, inhibiting apoptosis, maintaining the functionality of stem cells and restoring the stress-inhibited functionality of stem cells.

Cell-penetrating fusion protein for regenerating or proliferating stem cell

A collagen membrane having fusion protein bound thereto is described, in which the fusion protein includes collagen binding peptide and antibacterial peptide. The collagen membrane is usefully employed in vivo to promote cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation associated with bone tissue regeneration, for bone induction and regeneration. The fusion protein may also be applied to other collagenic graft materials, for use as a biomaterial for regenerating other tissues such as the skin.

The present invention relates to a novel human-derived cell permeable peptide-bioactive peptide conjugate and the use thereof. According to the present invention, cationic cell permeable peptides derived from human bone morphogenetic protein-4 have no toxicity and immunogenicity and thus exhibit high stability as compared to viral peptide delivery vehicles, and can transport cell impermeable material into cells and into an organism without any damage to cell or material, thereby significantly increasing target gene expression. In addition, the peptide may be applied to clinical use without having to undergo a large number of processes and mass-produced, such that the present invention may be useful in the development of a drug delivery system and treatment technologies using said peptide.

Cell-permeable peptide

A peptide having antibacterial or anti-inflammatory activity and a pharmaceutical composition containing the same as an active ingredient are described. Also, a peptide having antibacterial or anti-inflammatory activity against dental bacteria, including periodontal pathogens, and bacteria causing atopic dermatitis, and a pharmaceutical composition containing the peptide as an active ingredient are described. The inventive peptide having antibacterial or anti-inflammatory activity can be used for the treatment of both dental infectious diseases, including periodontitis, and inflammations, including arthritis.

The present invention relates to a dental cleanser composition for improving adhesion to teeth, and more particularly to, a dental cleanser composition which functions to remove not only a smear layer from the dentin surface of an exposed tooth root, but also oral bacteria, and thus is effective in improving adhesion to teeth in periodontal surgery. The present invention provides a dental cleanser composition containing sodium ethylene diaminotetraacetate and octyl phenol ethoxylate which is a surfactant. Sodium ethylene diaminotetraacetate in the composition functions to remove a smear layer on the tooth root surface and has antibacterial activity, and octyl phenol ethoxylate in the composition functions to lipopolysaccharide. Thus, the composition improves adhesion to teeth in periodontal surgery.

The present invention relates to a peptide having bone tissue regeneration capacity and binding to a surface of apatite. More particularly, a peptide is provided having bone tissue regeneration capacity and specifically binding to a surface of apatite mineral, capable of being stably immobilized to the surface of apatite mineral to retain effective activity and exhibit bone regeneration effects for a long time, by linking an amino acid sequence having bone tissue regeneration capacity and an amino acid sequence having apatite-binding capacity to each other to thereby provide a peptide having both bone-forming effects and binding capacity to the surface of apatite mineral. A composition for bone tissue regeneration containing the peptide is further provided.

Peptide having the ability to regenerate bone tissue and for binding to apatite

The present invention relates to a target-activated cell/tissue-penetrating peptide for delivery of impermeable compounds (Target Activated Cell/tissue Translocation peptide for Impermeable Compound Strategy (TACTICS)), and the use thereof, and more particularly to a target-activated cell/tissue-penetrating peptide, which comprises (a) a protein transduction domain (PTD), (b) a masking domain and (c) a spacer having a cleavage site specific for a target cell/tissue enzyme and is provided with target selectivity so as to penetrate specifically into a target tissue, and to a conjugate of the peptide with a drug or drug-containing particles for imaging or therapeutic applications. Because the target-activated cell/tissue-penetrating peptide has target selectivity, the peptide-drug conjugate exhibits maximized imaging and therapeutic effects, and the non-specific distribution of the conjugate in vivo is inhibited, so that the side effects of the conjugate are minimized, the diagnostic effects of the conjugate are maximized, and the conjugate is useful for the treatment of disease.

The present invention relates to an injectable bone regeneration material containing a bone formation enhancing peptide, and more particularly, to an injectable bone regeneration material, in which a bone formation enhancing peptide essentially containing one and more amino acid sequences among SEQ ID NO: 1 to SEQ ID NO: 28 is bonded or mixed to a gel-forming base material selected from the group consisting of chitosan, alginic acid, silk fibroin, propylene glycol, propylene glycol alginic acid, poloxamer, chondroitin sulphate, and the combination thereof. The injectable bone regeneration material according to the present invention can increase differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells and osteoblasts into bone tissue, thus maximizing tissue regeneration by a peptide capable of promoting differentiation of bone tissue and periodontal tissue regeneration. The injectable bone regeneration material is in the form of a gel, and thus can be applied to a surface of various medical devices such as implant etc., and can be mixed with bone graft particles to apply, so that it can increase a treatment effect of existing medical devices to maximize a tissue regeneration effect.
