Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing dopaminergic neuron progenitor cells from pluripotent stem cells, which method comprises the steps of: (i) performing adherent culture of pluripotent stem cells on an extracellular matrix in a medium containing a reagent(s) selected from the group consisting of BMP inhibitor, TGF? inhibitor, SHH signal-stimulating agent, FGF8, and GSK3? inhibitor; (ii) collecting Corin- and/or Lrtm1-positive cells from the cells obtained in Step (i) using a substance which binds to Corin and/or a substance which binds to Lrtm1; and (iii) performing suspension culture of the cells obtained in Step (ii) in a medium containing a neurotrophic factor.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing active hepatocyte growth factor activator (HGFA) and active hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) without using animal serum. The present invention relates to a method for producing active HGFA without using animal serum. The method is characterized in that it comprises a step of obtaining a culture supernatant comprising pro-HGFA by culturing mammalian cells expressing inactive hepatocyte growth factor activator (pro-HGFA) in a medium without serum, and a step of adjusting the culture supernatant comprising pro-HGFA obtained in the above step to weakly acidic to convert pro-HGFA into active HGFA. The present invention also relates to a method for producing active HGF with HGFA produced by said method.

Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a therapeutic drug for cancer having a superior treatment effect. A cancer treatment using a CBP/catenin inhibitor and an immune checkpoint inhibitor in combination not only increases a treatment effect on cancer, but also enables an effective treatment of cancer patients showing low sensitivity when an immune checkpoint inhibitor is used alone.

Abstract: Antisense oligonucleotides are provided. These antisense oligonucleotides are useful in the preparation of gapmers for inhibition of Tau mRNA transcription. Inhibition of Tau mRNA transcription may result in decrease of amounts of Tau protein in a subject, allowing treatment of diseases and disorders related to expression of Tau, including Alzheimer's disease and primary tauopathies.
