  • Method for inhibiting renal hypofunction in non-human animal
    Patent number: 11452761
    Abstract: A method for inhibiting renal hypofunction in a non-human animal includes administering cat-derived erythropoietin to the non-human animal. The non-human animal may have renal hypofunction. The non-human animal may have chronic kidney disease and the renal hypofunction may be caused by the chronic kidney disease. The cat-derived erythropoietin may be administered repeatedly at a time interval of 7 to 30 days.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 4, 2019
    Date of Patent: September 27, 2022
    Assignee: KANEKA CORPORATION
    Inventors: Hirokazu Sakamoto, Hiroetsu Suzuki, Kentaro Katayama, Yuki Tochigi

  • Highly efficient secretory signal peptide and a protein expression system using the peptide thereof
    Publication number: 20070117186
    Abstract: This invention is directed to the identification of secretory signal peptides exhibiting higher secretion efficiency than conventional secretory signal peptides. Secretory signal peptides exhibiting higher secretion ability than the secretory signal peptides used in conventional membrane and secretory protein expression systems are identified and isolated from membrane proteins and secretory proteins existing in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
