| Patent application number | Title | Published |
| 20100074959 | LIPID GROWTH FACTOR FORMULATIONS - The present invention is directed to novel formulations and methods for the improved delivery and administration of hydrophobic therapeutic compounds that are substantially insoluble and/or susceptible to precipitation in aqueous solution at physiological pH, including, e.g., growth and differentiation factor-5 and related proteins. Many therapeutic compounds are hydrophobic at physiological pH levels. | 03-25-2010 |
| 20100047299 | USE OF GDF-5 FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OR MAINTENANCE OF DERMAL APPEARANCE - The present invention is directed to novel methods and compositions containing growth factor proteins. Said compositions are specifically designed to optimize the amount of crucial structural elements of mammalian tissues. The invention is especially useful for the preservation and improvement of dermal tissue appearance. | 02-25-2010 |
| 20090325864 | NOVEL PROTEIN AND PROCESS FOR PREPARING THE SAME - A protein having amino acid sequence in SEQ ID No.:1 of the Sequence Listing derived from human MP52, and a dimer protein thereof. A homodimer protein described above can be obtained by constructing a plasmid containing DNA coding amino acid sequence in SEQ ID No.:1 of the Sequence Listing with a methionine at the N-terminus, introducing the plasmid into | 12-31-2009 |
| 20090155366 | OSTEOINDUCTIVE MATERIALS - The present invention concerns improved osteoinductive materials comprising matrix materials and morphogenetic roteins, wherein depending on the subject matter the proteins may be dimeric or monomeric proteins. The osteoinductive materials according to the present invention have improved properties. The invention further concerns methods for producing the respective improved osteoinductive materials. | 06-18-2009 |
| 20080318860 | High Activity Growth Factor Mutants - The application relates to novel biosynthetic growth factor mutants, derived from GDF-5, which exhibit improved biological activity. Mutations at positions 453 and 456 of human GDF-5 are disclosed, as well as use of these mutants in therapy of diseases associated with tissue degeneration/destruction. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20080318856 | MONOMER PROTEIN WITH BONE MORPHOGENETIC ACTIVITY AND MEDICINAL AGENT CONTAINING THE SAME FOR PREVENTING AND TREATING DISEASES OF CARTILAGE AND BONE - This invention provides for a protein of the TGF-β superfamily in which the cysteine involved in the normal formation of homodimers is changed to another amino acid. These mutant proteins, as monomers, display higher bone morphogenetic activity than the wild-type protein dimers. Also provided is a method for producing and isolating these monomers by plasmid driven expression in various host systems including | 12-25-2008 |
