Composition for treating and preventing benign prostatic hyperplasia
The present invention relates to a composition for treating and preventing benign prostatic hyperplasia, and a method for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia using same. More specifically, the present invention relates to a composition comprising telomerase-derived peptides for effectively treating and preventing benign prostatic hyperplasia and a method for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia using same. The composition comprising the peptide according to the present invention exhibits excellent effectiveness in treating and preventing benign prostatic hyperplasia.
1. A method for treating or preventing benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) comprising administering to a subject known to have benign prostatic hyperplasia the isolated peptide of SEQ ID NO: 1.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the peptide is administered in a single dose at a concentration of 0.001 to 10 mg/kg body weight.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the peptide is administrated in a single dose at a concentration of 0.005 to 0.05 mg/kg body weight.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the peptide is administered 1 to 3 times a day.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the peptide is administered at a daily dose of 0.001 to 10 mg/kg body weight.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the peptide is administered 1 to 3 times daily.
7. A method for treating or preventing benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) comprising administering to a subject known to have benign prostatic hyperplasia a composition comprising the isolated peptide of SEQ ID NO:1.
8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the composition comprises an additive selected from the group consisting of diluents, excipients, lubricants, binders, disintegrants, buffers, dispersants, surfactants, coloring agents, aromatics, and sweeteners.
9. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the composition is administered through a rectal, transdermal, intravenous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, in the bone marrow, epidural, or subcutaneous route.
10. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the composition comprises 0.01 g/L to 1 kg/L of the isolated peptide.
11. The method of claim 7 , wherein the peptide is administered in a single dose at a concentration of 0.001 to 10 mg/kg body weight.
12. The method of claim 7 , wherein the peptide is administered in a single dose at a concentration of 0.005 to 0.05 mg/kg body weight.
13. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the composition comprises 0.56 mg of the isolated peptide.
14. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the peptide is administered 1 to 3 times a day.
15. The method of claim 7 , wherein the peptide is administered at a daily dose of 0.001 to 10 mg/kg body weight.
16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the peptide is administered 1 to 3 times daily.
17. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the composition is administered every 2 weeks for a total period of 12 weeks treatment, wherein the isolated peptide is administered each time at concentration of 4 nmol /kg of body weight.
