The present application relates to a method for inducing neurogenesis in an aganglionic or hypoganglionic segment of the distal colon of a human subject suffering from an enteric neuropathy such as Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) or intestinal hypoganglionosis through the administration of an effective dose of recombinant Glial cell line-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (GDNF) polypeptide into the distal colon of the subject. The method also permits to correct the imbalance of nitrergic and cholinergic neuron subtypes located upstream of the aganglionic or hypoganglionic segment and restore distal colon function (e.g., motility and epithelial barrier) in the subject.

The present disclosure relates to nanoemulsions of 5-amino-[4-(4-chlorobenzoyl)-3, 5-dichlorobenzyl]-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamide (carboxy-amido-triazole or CAI), methods of preparing thereof, and their use in the treatment of inflammatory optic neuropathies.

The present invention provides preparations of MSCs with important therapeutic potential. The MSC cells are non-primary cells with an antigen profile comprising less than about 1.25% CD45+ cells (or less than about 0.75% CD45+), at least about 95% CD105+ cells, and at least about 95% CD166+ cells. Optionally, MSCs of the present preparations are isogenic and can be expanded ex vivo and cryopreserved and thawed, yet maintain a stable and uniform phenotype. Methods are taught here of expanding these MSCs to produce a clinical scale therapeutic preparations and medical uses thereof.

Treating, and compositions for treating, a condition and/or a symptom associated with an effect of at least one element of the opioid system in an animal by administering to the animal (i) a therapeutically effective amount of at least one microorganism and/or of a prebiotic thereof, where the microorganism is capable of modulating an effect of at least one element of the opioid system of the animal and (ii) a therapeutically effective amount of at least one compound capable of modulating an effect of an element of the opioid system of the animal.

Compositions, methods, and systems are provided for pulmonary delivery of active agents via a metered dose inhaler. In some embodiments, the compositions comprise an HFO-1234ze(E) suspension medium, active agent particles, and suspending particles. The active agent particles may comprise one, two, three or four active agent(s) selected from a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA), a long-acting β2-agonists (LABA), a short-acting beta-agonists (SABA), an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS), and a non-corticosteroid anti-inflammatory agent.

Disclosed herein is pharmaceutical compositions of Compound 1, and/or the hydroquinone form thereof, and methods useful for treating or suppressing a disease or disorder such as an α-synucleinpathy, a tauopathy, an autistic spectrum disorder, a pervasive developmental disorder, a liver disease, and liver damage in a subject using such pharmaceutical compositions.
