  • Publication number: 20250367305
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an albumin nanocomposite comprising a phytochemical and a composition for muscle disease comprising the same, and more specifically, to an albumin nanocomposite comprising a phytochemical that exhibits an effect of inhibiting muscle loss caused by oxidative stress or inflammatory response and promoting the differentiation of myoblasts into muscle cells. The albumin nanocomposite comprising the phytochemical effectively delivers the phytochemical by targeting immune cells that induce reactive oxygen species and inflammatory responses. Accordingly, by regulating muscle-loss signaling pathways induced by reactive oxygen species and inflammatory responses, the nanocomposite inhibits muscle cell atrophy and promotes differentiation. Therefore, a composition comprising the albumin nanocomposite comprising the phytochemical according to the present disclosure can be provided as a composition for improving, preventing, or treating muscle diseases.

  • Patent number: 11491859
    Abstract: A method for controlling a semi-active engine mount is provided to increase both NVH performance and driving performance of a vehicle and reduce noise and vibration generated under specific driving conditions. The method includes storing real-time vehicle speed data at intervals of a predetermined time and determining whether an engine is in an idling state. In response to determining that the engine is in the idling state, determining whether a current driving state of the vehicle corresponds to predetermined conditions in which noise and vibration performance is prioritized based on vehicle speed change information. The semi-active engine mount is adjusted to be in an on state, upon determining that the current driving state of the vehicle in the idling state of the engine corresponds to the predetermined conditions.
