Publication number: 20240100093Abstract: Provided is a ??T cell for securing the purity and number of cells sufficient for treatment. Also provided is a method of generating the ??T cell. More specifically, provided are homogeneous ??T cells excellent in that the ??T cells are not affected by exhaustion of the cells. The foregoing is achieved by ??T cells obtained by subjecting induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) to differentiation induction treatment. Specifically, the foregoing is achieved by ??T cells generated by subjecting iPS cells having a rearranged ??TCR gene (??TCR-type iPS cells) to differentiation induction treatment. According to the method of generating the ??T cell of the present invention, there can be provided ??T cells and a cell population of ??T cells that have an excellent function of having antigen-specific cytotoxic activity in a MHC-unrestricted manner, and that are more homogeneous and have a higher effect than ??T cells separated from peripheral blood.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 4, 2022Publication date: March 28, 2024Applicant: NATIONAL UNIVERSITY CORPORATION KOBE UNIVERSITYInventors: Takashi AOI, Nobuyuki MURAI

Patent number: 10905764Abstract: Providing a hydrated food which contains theanine and in which theanine content can stably be maintained even when the hydrated food is preserved for a long period of time and the taste threshold of the food can be improved and the peculiar taste can be flavored. The problem can be overcome by a hydrated food containing theanine and pyroglutamic acid. In this case, it is preferable that pH ranges from about 2.8 to about 7.5. Furthermore, it is preferable that a content of pyroglutamic acid ranges from about 1% to about 20% relative to a content of theanine.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2018Date of Patent: February 2, 2021Assignee: Taiyokagaku Co., Ltd.Inventors: Shizuka Kogiso, Makoto Ozeki, Nobuyuki Aoi
