  • Publication number: 20140193431
    Abstract: Disclosed are a human antibody comprising a human complementarity-determining region (CDR), which binds specifically to c-Met, and a framework region (FR), a polynucleotide encoding the human antibody, an expression vector comprising the polynucleotide, a transformant transformed with the expression vector, a method of producing the human antibody B7 by culturing the transformant, a wound healing composition comprising the human antibody as an active ingredient, a cell regeneration composition comprising the antibody as an active ingredient, and a drug conjugate comprising a drug linked to the human antibody. The c-Met-specific human antibody can function as an HGF mimic that can be used as a wound healing composition. The antibody can be widely used to determine the treatment and prognosis of various diseases, including neuronal infarction, progressive nephropathy, liver cirrhosis, lung fibrosis, kidney injury, liver injury, lung injury, and ulcerative wounds, which are treated by activation of HGF or c-Met.

  • Publication number: 20140072558
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an activin receptor type II B (ACVR2B) inhibitor which comprises the delta-like 1 homolog (DLK1) extracellular water-soluble domain. More specifically, the present invention relates to an extracellular soluble domain of DLK1; fragments of the extracellular soluble domain of DLK1; mutants of the extracellular soluble domain of DLK1; a composition for suppressing ligand linkage with the ACVR2B receptor, which includes a fragment of the mutants as an active ingredient; and a pharmaceutical composition for prevention and treatment of diseases which comprises the same. The composition of the present invention competitively binds to the ACVR2B receptor and inhibits the binding of an ACVR2B ligand to the ACVR2B receptor, which inhibits protein signalling associated with such ligands, and will be useful for prevention and treatment of diseases associated therewith.
