SYNTHETIC PEPTIDE CAPABLE OF INDUCING EXPRESSION OF TYPE-2 TNF RECEPTOR AND USE THEREOF

摘要

This invention provides a TNFR2 expression-inducing composition comprising as an active ingredient a peptide having TNFR2 expression-inducing activity, and a method for producing cells that express TNFR2 selectively by use of the composition. The cell production method provided by this invention comprises: culturing at least one species of cells capable of expressing TNF receptor 2, and supplying the cells with a synthetic peptide consisting of a nuclear localization signal sequence (NLS) or a nucleolar localization signal sequence (NoLS) to enhance TNFR2 expression in the cells.
