A liquid formulation comprising a peptide agonist of the calcium sensing receptor and method of preparing and using the formulation are provided.

The present invention relates, inter alia, to certain hepcidin peptide analogs, including peptides and dimers thereof, and to the use of the peptides and peptide dimers in the treatment and/or prevention of a variety of diseases, conditions or disorders, including treatment and/or prevention of iron overload diseases, which include hereditary hemochromatosis and iron-loading anemias, and other conditions and disorders described herein.

Racemization-free methods are disclosed for the synthesis of carfilzomib. Novel intermediates and methods of making carfilzomib employing fragment condensation using the novel intermediates are disclosed. Amorphous carfilzomib and methods of making same are disclosed.

A method of eliciting an immune response in a patient who has a cancer includes administering to said patient a composition containing a population of activated T cells that selectively recognize the cancer cells in the patient that aberrantly express a peptide consisting of the amino acid sequence of GVYDGEEHSV (SEQ ID NO: 303), in which the peptide is in a complex with an MHC molecule.

The present invention concerns certain peptides obtainable by hydrolysis from soy glycinin by the action of supernatant cultures of strains belonging to the genera Lactobacillus or Streptococcus. These peptides, extracts containing them and food products containing them are useful for the treatment and/or prevention of obesity and oxidative stress.

Specific peptides, and derived ionization characteristics of the peptides, from the Fatty acid synthase (FASN) protein are provided that are particularly advantageous for quantifying the FASN protein directly in biological samples that have been fixed in formalin by the method of Selected Reaction Monitoring (SRM) mass spectrometry, or what can also be termed as Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM) mass spectrometry. Such biological samples are chemically preserved and fixed and are selected from tissues and cells treated with formaldehyde containing agents/fixatives including formalin-fixed tissue/cells, formalin-fixed/paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue/cells, FFPE tissue blocks and cells from those blocks, and tissue culture cells that have been formalin fixed and or paraffin embedded. A protein sample is prepared from said biological sample using the Liquid Tissue™ reagents and protocol and the FASN protein is quantitated in the Liquid Tissue™ sample by the method of SRM/MRM mass spectrometry by quantitating in the protein sample at least one or more of the peptides described. These peptides can be quantitated if they reside in a modified or an unmodified form. An example of a modified form of an FASN peptide is phosphorylation of a tyrosine, threonine, serine, and/or other amino acid residues within the peptide sequence.

The present invention relates to a short peptide-based therapeutic agent and a medicinal composition including the same for inhibiting activities of cancer cells, which includes at least one short peptide listed as SEQ ID NOs: 1 and 2, either of which is unglycosylated and has no more than 40 amino acid residues, thereby specifically reducing or inhibiting activities of cancer cells such as the cancer cell proliferation, cancer stemness, cell migration, cancer cell invasion, metastasis or drug resistance.
