NOVEL PROTEIN MATERIAL
The invention relates to a protein material includes angiogenin and/or angiogenin hydrolysate in an amount of 2 to 15 mg/100 mg, and lactoperoxidase and/or lactoperoxidase hydrolysate, in the mass ratio to angiogenin and/or angiogenin hydrolysate of 0.3 to 20.
BICOMPATIBLE PEPTIDEBIOCOMPATIBLE PEPTIDES FOR INHIBITION OF AGGREGATION OF B-AMYLOID PROTEIN
The present invention relates to a biocompatible peptide inhibiting the aggregation of a β-amyloid protein, and more particularly, to a biocompatible peptide derived from superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) and specifically binding to β-amyloid, a β-amyloid aggregation inhibitor including the peptide, and a pharmaceutical composition for treating a β-amyloid aggregation-associated disease. The peptide of the present invention has a strong binding strength to β-amyloid, inhibits the formation of a β-amyloid protein aggregate, and prevents neural cell death, thereby treating a neurodegenerative disease such as Alzheimer's disease. In addition, since the peptide of the present invention does not have cytotoxicity, it has no side effect of disturbing an immune system.
Purification and isolation of recombinant oxalate degrading enzymes and spray-dried particles containing oxalate degrading enzymes
The present invention comprises methods and compositions for the reduction of oxalate in humans, and methods for the purification and isolation of recombinant oxalate reducing enzyme proteins. The invention provides methods and compositions for the delivery of oxalate-reducing enzymes in particle compositions. The compositions of the present invention are suitable in methods of treatment or prevention of oxalate-related conditions.
