Compositions and methods for the treatment of immunodeficiency
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for the treatment of immunodeficiency (e.g., primary immunodeficiency disease). In particular, the invention provides human plasma immunoglobulin compositions containing select antibody titers specific for a plurality of respiratory pathogens, methods of identifying human donors and donor samples for use in the compositions, methods of manufacturing the compositions, and methods of utilizing the compositions (e.g., for prophylactic administration and/or therapeutic treatment (e.g., passive immunization (e.g., immune-prophylaxis))).
Sialylated Glycoproteins
Pharmaceutical preparations containing polypeptides having particular sialylation patterns, and methods for the treatment of immune-related thrombocytopenia with such preparations, are described.
IMMUNOGLOBULIN PRODUCTS FOR USE IN THE TREATMENT OF CHRONIC INFLAMMATORY DEMYELINATING POLYNEUROPATHY
The present invention relates to immunoglobulin products for use in the treatment of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy using immunoglobulin products. In particular, the present invention provides efficacious dosing regimens.
Aqueous composition comprising at least one protein and one solubilizing agent, preparation thereof and uses thereof
The present invention relates to a liquid composition which comprises, in an aqueous medium, one or more protein(s) and one or more solubilizing agent(s) chosen from the group consisting of anionic compounds of non-saccharide structure, said structure of which contains at least one aromatic nucleus comprising at least 6 ring members (6 atoms) and at least one carboxylic acid group in salified form, and which has, in its acid form, a molar mass of between 130 and 500 g/mol. It also relates to the use of said solubilizing agent(s) for preparing compositions according to the invention. It also relates to a process for solubilizing one or more protein(s), wherein at least one solubilizing agent chosen from the group consisting of anionic compounds of non-saccharide structure, said structure of which contains at least one aromatic nucleus comprising at least 6 ring members (6 atoms) and at least one carboxylic acid group in salified form, and which has, in its acid form, a molar mass of between 130 and 500 g/mol, is added to an aqueous protein preparation in order to solubilize the protein.
Catechol Nanoparticle, Catechol Protein Nanoparticle, and Preparation Method and Use Thereof
Provided are catechol nanoparticles, catechol protein nanoparticles, and a preparation method and use thereof. The method includes: adding a tannin compound-containing natural herb medicine into water to obtain a mixture, and subjecting the mixture to heating reflux extraction to obtain a herb medicine extract and subjecting the herb medicine extract to fractionation to obtain the catechol nanoparticles.
Sialylated Glycoproteins
Pharmaceutical preparations containing polypeptides having particular sialylation patterns, and methods for the treatment of immune-related thrombocytopenia with such preparations, are described.
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR THE TREATMENT OF IMMUNODEFICIENCY
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for the treatment of immunodeficiency (e.g., primary immunodeficiency disease). In particular, the invention provides human plasma immunoglobulin compositions containing select antibody titers specific for a plurality of respiratory pathogens, methods of identifying human donors and donor samples for use in the compositions, methods of manufacturing the compositions, and methods of utilizing the compositions (e.g., for prophylactic administration and/or therapeutic treatment (e.g., passive immunization (e.g., immune-prophylaxis))).
IgG stimulated remyelination of peripheral nerves
The present invention is based on the discovery of polyclonal IgG's ability to promote Schwann cell maturation, differentiation, and myelin production. Methods for treating non-idiopathic, demyelinating peripheral neuropathies in mammals, where the neuropathy is not immune-mediated or infection-mediated, through the administration of polyclonal IgG are provided. Types of demyelinating peripheral neuropathies treatable with the present invention include peripheral nerve trauma and toxin-induced peripheral neuropathies. Alternatively, a composition of polyclonal IgGs can be applied directly to a peripheral nerve cell to induce maturation, differentiation into a myelinating state, and myelin expression or promote cell survival.
