Abstract: The disclosure relates to a non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) gas sensor which detects the concentration of gas with a simple structure and method by manufacturing an optical waveguide with a gas-permeable polymer material instead of a conventional cavity or chamber type. An optical signal travels through the optical waveguide of gas-permeable polymer by total internal reflection, and the gas naturally penetrates the optical waveguide without the use of separate inlet and outlet openings, so that the optical signal and gas particles come into contact with each other within the optical waveguide. Since the optical signal detected by a photodetector at the other end of the optical waveguide after traveling while contacting the gas particles has properties changed according to the concentration of the gas which they have contacted in the optical waveguide, it is possible to measure the concentration of a specific gas from the detected optical signal.

Abstract: Disclosed are a human antibody comprising a human complementarity-determining region (CDR), which binds specifically to c-Met, and a framework region (FR), a polynucleotide encoding the human antibody, an expression vector comprising the polynucleotide, a transformant transformed with the expression vector, a method of producing the human antibody B7 by culturing the transformant, a wound healing composition comprising the human antibody as an active ingredient, a cell regeneration composition comprising the antibody as an active ingredient, and a drug conjugate comprising a drug linked to the human antibody. The c-Met-specific human antibody can function as an HGF mimic that can be used as a wound healing composition. The antibody can be widely used to determine the treatment and prognosis of various diseases, including neuronal infarction, progressive nephropathy, liver cirrhosis, lung fibrosis, kidney injury, liver injury, lung injury, and ulcerative wounds, which are treated by activation of HGF or c-Met.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel endocytic motif, and in particular, to a fusion polypeptide including the motif represented by an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO. 1 and a protein transduction domain, a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating cancer including the same, and a method for treating cancer including the step of administering the composition. The present invention shows the effects of suppressing metastasis, infiltration, angiogenesis, and growth of cancer by specifically inhibiting c-Met endocytosis and effectively inhibiting HGF/c-Met signaling pathway associated with metastasis and growth of various types of cancer cells. Therefore, the present invention can be applied to an anticancer agent for various types of cancer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to TNFR2-TWEAKR fusion protein, more precisely to TNFR2-TWEAKR fusion protein acting as a double-antagonist to TNF-? and TWEAK, known as major causes of autoimmune arthritis which is one of autoimmune diseases. When the composition comprising TNFR2-TWEAKR fusion protein was treated to Th17 cells, the secretion of the inflammatory cytokine IL-17 was reduced but the secretion of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 generated in Treg cells was increased. Such effect of TNFR2-TWEAKR fusion protein was far greater than that of a single protein such as TNFR2-Fc or TWEAK-Fc. The TNFR2-TWEAKR fusion protein of the present invention has not only excellent treatment effect on arthritis in CIA mouse model not also excellent treatment effect on autoimmune rheumatoid arthritis by increasing the expression of Treg, the immune suppressive cells.
