Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition which is for preventing or treating bone diseases and includes CCR2 as an active ingredient. It was confirmed that a C—C chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2) protein, a polynucleotide encoding the CCR2 protein, or a mesenchymal stem cell transduced with the CCR2 according to the present invention neutralize bone disease factor MCP-1, thereby reducing the collagen epitope (CTX-II) and collagen metabolism factors (MMP1 and MMP3) relating to collagen absorption in the body. In addition, it was confirmed that the expression of the SOX9 gene and anti-inflammatory cytokines (TGF-? and IL-10) related to cartilage differentiation was significantly increased. Thus, the present invention has excellent regenerative ability against osteoarthritis and excellent pain suppression and alleviation effects, and thus can be effectively used for preventing or treating bone diseases such as osteoarthritis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a mesenchymal stem cell having immunomodulatory activity and a preparation method therefor and, more specifically, to: a rapamycin-treated mesenchymal stem cell having immunomodulatory activity, which expresses any one or more cell surface factors selected from the group consisting of CCR1, CCR2, CCR3, CCR4, CCR7, CCR9 and CXCR4; a cell therapy composition comprising the mesenchymal stem cell, for preventing or treating immune disorders; and a preparation method for the mesenchymal stem cell having immunomodulatory activity. The rapamycin-treated mesenchymal stem cell having immunomodulatory activity, according to the present invention, has increased expression of IDO, TGF-? and IL-10 which are factors having immunomodulatory activity, has decreased expression of Phospho-mTOR, Rictor and Ractor which are signal transduction factors of mTOR, and has increased expression, in the cell, of autophagic inducer Beclin1, ATG5, ATG7, LC3I or LCII.

Abstract: An apparatus for operating a syringe has developed comprising: an upper semi-cylindrical tube section, semi-circular shaped locking groove and lower semi-cylindrical tube section. The upper semi-cylindrical tube section is integrally formed an upper head part with a threaded hole for axial movement. The lower semi-cylindrical tube section forms a top portion, intermediate portion and end portion. A diameter (Dc) at the intermediate portion larger than the diameter (Dtip) at end portion is gradually reduced from intermediate to end portion. The length of the tapered portion is same as that portion of the constant diameter. A tip portion has formed an opened semi-circular shape to simply overlap the syringe over the cartridge for easily snapping-in and out. The syringe piston moves downward with no reverse action when the piston press-unit is rotated, thus it is possible to inject the precise amount of medicine to a patient with constant pressure.
