Compositions and methods of use for secretoglobins to protect the glycocalyx via interactions with heparan sulfate proteoglycan proteins
11690893 · 2023-07-04 ·

SCGB-based preparations and methods to use these preparations to protect the glycocalyx in medical, veterinary, and cosmetic applications are provided. The secretoglobins (SCGBs) are a family of small secreted globular proteins present in all mammals and sharing conserved structure and thought to share similar immunomodulatory functions. Heparan sulfate proteoglycan proteins (HSPGs) are expressed on the outer membranes of cells and have carbohydrate side chains that, together, make up the glycocalyx. The glycocalyx is a protective layer surrounding all cells, acting as a filter regulating the passage of nutrients into the cell and modifying cell signaling by external factors. There are two major families of HSPGs including syndecans and glypicans, plus several other HSPGs in all mammals. SCGBs bind to, and interact with, HSPGs to further modulate cell signaling and cellular responses to external factors.

TGF-β polypeptides

The present disclosure provides T-cell modulatory multimeric polypeptides (T-Cell-MMP) and their epitope conjugates comprising at least one immunomodulatory polypeptide (“MOD”) that may be selected to exhibit reduced binding affinity to a cognate co-immunomodulatory polypeptide (“Co-MOD”). The epitope may be, for example, a cancer-associated epitope, an infectious disease-associated epitope, or a self-epitope. The T-Cell-MMP-epitope conjugates are useful for modulating the activity of a T-cell by delivering immunomodulatory peptides, such as IL-2 or IL-2 variants that exhibit reduced binding affinity for the IL-2R, to T-cells in an epitope selective/specific manner, and accordingly, for treating individuals with a cancer, infectious disease or autoimmune disorder.

High penetration compositions and their applications
11541029 · 2023-01-03 · ·

High penetration compositions (HPC) of a parent compound, which are capable of crossing biological barriers with high penetration efficiency. The HPCs are capable of being converted to parent drugs or parent drug-related compounds such as metabolites after crossing one or more biological barriers and thus can render treatments for the conditions that the parent drugs or parent drug-related compounds can. Additionally, the HPCs are capable of reaching areas that their parent drugs or parent drug-related compounds may not be able to access or to render a sufficient concentration at the target areas HPCs of NSAIA, for example, have demonstrated indications such as treating hair loss. A HPC can be administered to a subject through various administration routes, e.g., locally delivered to an action site of a condition with a high concentration or systematically administered to a biological subject and enter the general circulation with a faster rate.

Anti-IL-25 antibodies and uses thereof

The present invention provides antibodies that bind to human interleukin-25 (IL-25) and methods of using the same. According to certain embodiments, the antibodies of the invention bind human IL-25 with high affinity.
