HEMOSTATIC COMPOSITION AND HEMOSTATIC METHOD USING HEMOSTATIC COMPOSITION
[Problem to be Solved] It is intended to provide a composition for hemostasis which can be uniformly applied to a bleeding site and exerts a high hemostatic effect.
[Solution] The present invention provides a composition to be applied as a spray to a subject, the spray being used for hemostasis, and the composition comprising a self-assembling peptide, wherein the self-assembling peptide self-assembles and thereby gels when the composition is applied to a bleeding site of the subject, and the self-assembling peptide is contained in the composition at a concentration at which the composition has an improved hemostatic ability as compared with that when directly applied.
TARGET PEPTIDES FOR CANCER THERAPY AND DIAGNOSTICS
Provided are compositions that include one or more synthetic target peptides, wherein each synthetic target peptide is about or at least 8-50 amino acids long; and has an amino acid sequence as set forth in Table 2 and/or Table 3. Also provided are in vitro populations of dendritic cells that include the disclosed compositions, in vitro population of CD8+ T cells capable of being activated upon being brought into contact with the disclosed populations of dendritic cells, antibodies or antibody-like molecules that specifically binds to a complex of an MHC class I molecule and a peptide having an amino acid sequence as set forth in Table 2 and/or Table 3, methods for treating and/or preventing cancers by administering a therapeutically effective dose of a composition that includes at least one target peptide having an amino acid sequence as set forth in Table 2 and/or Table 3.
