Patents Assigned to Junten Bio Co., Ltd.
  • Patent number: 12397054
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a pharmaceutical composition for antigen-specific immune tolerance or immune present suppression. The disclosure provides pharmaceutical composition comprising a CD4-positive anergy T cell and a CD8-positive anergy T cell. In some embodiments, the anergy T cell is induced by an antibody capable of inhibiting the interaction between CD80 and/or CD86 and CD28. In a specific embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition May additionally comprise a regulatory T cell (e.g., a FOXP3-positive CD4-positive CD25-positive T cell).

  • Patent number: 12234287
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a novel technique relating to immunological tolerance. More specifically, the present inventor found for the first time that, in a technique for inducing immunological tolerance by administering an organ transplantation patient (a recipient) a cell preparation containing cells in which anergy is induced by an inhibitor inhibiting the interaction between CD80/CD86 and CD28, the immunological tolerance continues even after the disappearance of the cells derived from the cell preparation from the recipient (infectious immunological tolerance). Further, the present inventor proved that such a cell preparation can elicit immunological tolerance against immunological rejection caused by allergy, iPS cells, etc. or cells, tissues or organs derived therefrom.

  • Patent number: 12139537
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an antibody for inducing immune tolerance, an induced lymphocyte, and a cell therapy agent therapeutic method using the induced lymphocyte. Specifically, the present disclosure provides an antibody that inhibits the interaction between CD80 and/or CD86 expressed on the surface of a certain cell and CD28 expressed on the surface of another cell, and substantially does not induce immune activation-induced cytokines. In a specific embodiment, the Fc portion of the antibody substantially does not produce the immune activation-induced cytokines.
