Abstract: Provided are a nanocomposite including a nano-drug delivery system; and a ginseng extract or a ginsenoside isolated therefrom, and a preparation method thereof, in which the nanocomposite may be used for the prevention or treatment of cancer and inflammatory diseases. The metal nanocomposite of the present invention may be prepared in a uniform size without using an additional reducing agent or stabilizing agent in a significantly shortened time, as compared with known metal nanoparticles. Further, since the metal nanocomposite has high solubility in water and high targeting ability for cancer cells, it can be advantageously developed as drugs. Further, the metal nanocomposite exhibits high anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory activities, and thus may be usefully applied to prevention or treatment of cancer and inflammatory diseases.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a composition for increasing the biological activity of stem cells using mixture 4F. Stem cells treated with mixture 4F according to the present disclosure not only acquire undifferentiated characteristics (stemness), but also have the advantage of improving cell proliferative ability and mobility, and thus, after being transplanted into a body, the stem cells can improve cell survival and engraftment and further enhance the ability to regenerate blood vessels and tissues. Accordingly, the stem cells can have various applications in the fields of stem cell differentiation and ischemic disease prevention or treatment.

Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition containing forskolin and retinoic acid as active ingredients which is suitable for preventing or treating sensorineural hearing loss is disclosed. A pharmaceutical composition containing forskolin and retinoic acid as active ingredients has an excellent effect of preventing, alleviating or treating hearing loss caused by ototoxic drugs during anticancer treatment, and thus is useful as a pharmaceutical composite preparation capable of reducing side effects of anticancer drugs and, additionally, as an agent for preventing or treating sensorineural hearing loss.
