Abstract: A method for determining immunogenicity of a protein agent. The method includes constructing a library of peripheral blood mononuclear cells having various HLA-DRB1 genotypes; culturing peripheral blood mononuclear cell CD14+ monocyte-derived immature dendritic cells for each genotype in a medium containing a protein to be measured, GM-CSF, IL-4, TNF-?, IL-1?, IL-6 and PGF2 to prepare mature dendritic cells; removing CD8+ T cells from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells for each genotype to prepare CD8+ T cell-free peripheral blood mononuclear cells; co-culturing the mature dendritic cells and the CD8+ T cell-free peripheral blood mononuclear cells at a cell count ratio of approximately 1:5 to 1:20; and quantifying the CD4+ T cells proliferated by co-cultivation per genotype.

Abstract: A composition and a method for treating a bone and cartilage disease (including, but not limited to, cartilage disorder and cartilage damage such as injury to the articular cartilage, osteoarthritis, costochondritis, herniation, achondroplasia, relapsing polychondritis, benign or non-cancerous tumors, or malignant or cancerous tumors) are disclosed, wherein the compositions comprise chimeric polypeptides having TGF-beta activity.

Abstract: A composition and a method for treating a liver disease (including, but not limited to, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, liver fibrosis and hepatic inflammation) are disclosed. The composition comprises a chimeric polypeptide having TGF-beta activity. The method includes administering an effective amount of the composition to a subject in need of treating a liver disease.

Abstract: The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for inhibiting the metastasis of cancer, comprising, as an active ingredient, an antibody that specifically binds to an epidermal growth factor receptor, and a method for inhibiting the metastasis of cancer using the composition. The composition or the method is effective in inhibiting the invasion of various gastric cancer cell lines induced by EGFR ligands. Therefore, the pharmaceutical composition can be usefully used for inhibiting the metastasis of cancer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an antibody that binds specifically to a tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI), a nucleic acid encoding the antibody, a vector comprising the nucleic acid, a host cell transformed with the vector, a method for producing the antibody, and a pharmaceutical composition for treating hemophilia, which comprises the antibody as an active ingredient. The antibody of the present invention, which binds specifically to TFPI, can activate the extrinsic pathway of blood coagulation by inhibiting TFPI. Thus, the antibody of the present invention can be effectively used for the treatment of antibody-induced hemophilia patients and for the prevention of blood coagulation disease in hemophilia-A or hemophilia-B patients.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an antibody specifically bound to mesothelin (MSLN), a nucleic acid encoding the antibody, a vector and a host cell including the nucleic acid, a method for producing the antibody, and a pharmaceutical composition for treating cancer or tumor including the antibody as an active ingredient. The antibody specifically bound to the mesothelin according to the present invention has high affinity and specificity to an antigen, such that it is possible to develop an antibody effectively usable for treatment or diagnosis of cancer or tumor diseases.

Abstract: A transgenic mouse expressing inactivated human iduronate-2-sulphatase (IDS) and a method for improving agents for treating Hunter syndrome using the transgenic mouse are provided. The transgenic mouse expressing the inactivated human IDS, which has immune tolerance to IDS, does not cause an immune response to IDS which is an active component of the agents for treating Hunter syndrome, and thus the transgenic mouse may be effectively used to identify immunogenic factors other than the immunogenicity of the protein components of the agents.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an antibody that binds specifically to a tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI), a nucleic acid encoding the antibody, a vector comprising the nucleic acid, a host cell transformed with the vector, a method for producing the antibody, and a pharmaceutical composition for treating hemophilia, which comprises the antibody as an active ingredient. The antibody of the present invention, which binds specifically to TFPI, can activate the extrinsic pathway of blood coagulation by inhibiting TFPI. Thus, the antibody of the present invention can be effectively used for the treatment of antibody-induced hemophilia patients and for the prevention of blood coagulation disease in hemophilia-A or hemophilia-B patients.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing natural killer cells using T cells, and more particularly, to a method for producing natural killer cells, which comprises culturing seed cells using CD4(+) T cells as feeder cells. The method for producing natural killer cells using T cells according to the present invention is a method capable of producing natural killer cells by selectively proliferating only natural killer cells from a small amount of seed cells while maintaining the high killing activity of the natural killer cells. The method of the present invention can produce a large amount of natural killer cells that can be frozen, and thus is useful for commercialization of cell therapeutic agents.
