The present invention also relates to a biomaterial comprising Histatin-1 or its derivatives in a biocompatible material, and a method for the treatment, repair, formation or regeneration of bone tissues in a subject comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of Histatin-1 or its derivatives.

The present invention relates to extracts from Fraxinus angustifolia samara, processes for providing such extracts, and methods and uses of the extracts obtained. In particular, the present invention relates to the use of such extracts in reversing obesity-related and/or metabolic syndrome-related gut microbiota dysbiosis treatment, treating or preventing hepatic steatosis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and modulating and/or adjusting gut microbiota.

The invention provides a method of treating a disorder characterised by elevated or dysregulated myostatin, disorders where the interaction between follistatin and angiogenin can be used to improve function in tissues, neurological diseases or disorders, spinal injuries or diseases, bone diseases or disorders, diseases involving glucose homeostasis, wound healing, neuroprotection, nervous system functional support or managing metabolic diseases, the method comprising administering an effective amount of angiogenin or an angiogenin agonist. Compositions and neutraceuticals comprising angiogenin are also provided.

A novel compound able to inhibit JAK is disclosed, this compound may be prepared as a pharmaceutical composition, and may be used for the prevention and treatment of a variety of conditions in mammals including humans, including by way of non-limiting example, inflammatory conditions, autoimmune diseases, proliferative diseases, transplantation rejection, diseases involving impairment of cartilage turnover, congenital cartilage malformations, and/or diseases associated with hypersecretion of IL6.

The disclosure describes nanocarried and/or microcarried jasmonate compounds and their pharmaceutical compositions, as well as use thereof for treating or preventing angiogenesis-related or NF-κB-related disorders. Also disclosed are methods of making the nanocarried and/or microcarried compounds and their compositions.

The present invention discloses salts of a Compound 1:

##STR00001##

useful in the prophylaxis and/or treatment of inflammatory conditions, autoimmune diseases, proliferative diseases, allergy, transplant rejection, diseases involving degradation and/or disruption of cartilage homeostasis, congenital cartilage malformations, and/or diseases associated with hypersecretion of IL6 or interferons.

The present invention provides an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof with binding specificity for human interleukin-1 receptor accessory protein (IL1RAP) wherein the antibody or antigen-binding fragment is capable of inhibiting the binding of antibody ‘CAN04’ to human IL1RAP. The invention further provides the use of such antibodies or an antigen-binding fragments in the treatment and/or diagnosis of IL-1 associated diseases and conditions, including cancers such as acute myeloid leukemia and melanoma.
