  • Patent number: 11773081
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a composition for preventing or treating wound. The composition according to the present disclosure contains, as an active ingredient, an indirubin derivative alone or one or more selected from a group consisting of an indirubin derivative, an Euodia sutchuenensis Dode extract, methyl vanillate, hesperidin and quercitrin, and thus can be used as a pharmaceutical composition capable of promoting wound healing and reducing scarring not only in a normal state but also in a diabetic state. Furthermore, since the composition exhibits excellent effects in healing diabetic wound as well as general wound, it can be usefully used as a pharmaceutical composition, cosmetic composition or food composition for alleviating, preventing or treating general wound or diabetic wound, or as a veterinary composition for treating diabetic wound.

  • Patent number: 11459311
    Abstract: A composition for promoting longitudinal bone growth, according to the present invention, promotes the proliferation of the chondrocytes and the differentiation of the osteoblasts and has effects of simultaneously increasing longitudinal bone length and thickness (bone density), and thus has an advantage of being widely prescribable to various age groups, thereby being usable as a pharmaceutical composition for promoting the growth of longitudinal bone length and thickness. An indirubin derivative according to the present invention has prevention or treatment effects through oral administration. In addition, unlike conventional therapeutic agents, the pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating bone diseases of the present invention is a stable compound, which is known to be substantially noncytotoxic to the human body, and is a material of which adverse effects have not been identified and has excellent treatment effects for bone diseases and osteogenesis imperfecta.

  • Patent number: 11219656
    Abstract: The invention relates to a composition containing extracts of the fruit of Hovenia dulcis Thunb., gallocatechin, and methyl vanillate as active ingredients for preventing and treating bone disease. The extracts of the fruit of Hovenia dulcis Thunb., the gallocatechin, and the methyl vanillate according to the present invention are natural materials and thus cause no side effects, and may activate the Wnt/?-catenin pathway to promote bone formation rather than inhibiting bone decomposition, and therefore may be effective in treating osteoporosis and related diseases. In addition, the extracts of the fruit of Hovenia dulcis Thunb., the gallocatechin, and the methyl vanillate according to the present invention may have the effects regrowing hair and preventing and treating wounds and metabolic diseases related to the activation of Wnt/?-catenin pathway.
