Disclosed herein are conjugates including a fatty acid, a self-assembly domain, and a polypeptide having phase transition behavior. Further disclosed are methods of using the conjugates to treat disease, methods of delivering an agent, and methods of preparing the conjugates.

A preconcentrate comprising a fatty acid oil mixture that contains EPA and DHA, preferably in the form of ethyl ester or triglyceride, and at least one surfactant. The preconcentrates are capable of forming a self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system, a self-microemulsifying drug delivery system or a self-emulsifying drug delivery system (SNEDDS, SMEDDS or SEDDS) in an aqueous solution. The application is also directed to a food supplement preconcentrate.

A construct, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, comprising: (a) a polyethylene glycol-block-poly(L-lysine) polymer moiety, wherein the polyethylene glycol is thiol-functionalized; (b) a cholecystokinin-B (CCK-B) receptor ligand coupled to the polyethylene glycol of the polymer moiety; and (c) a siRNA complexed with the poly(L-lysine) of the polymer moiety, wherein the construct is neutralized.

The present invention relates to a composition for topical application comprising a polyaphron dispersion, the polyaphron dispersion comprising a continuous aqueous phase and at least one discontinuous oil phase, wherein the polyaphron dispersion comprises calcipotriol, betamethasone dipropionate, alpha-tocopherol and butylated hydroxyanisole, and wherein the composition has a pH of 7.75±0.5.

The present disclosure provides imaging agents that are useful for the detection and evaluation of heart conditions, such as myocardial infarction. Upon activation, the imaging agents of the present disclosure may be detected using an ultrasound imaging device.

The present invention relates to a method for solubilizing phytogenic, endogenous and synthetic cannabinoids, to the solubilisate produced by this method and respective uses as a pharmaceutical dosage form. A MCT oil- and non-hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine-based solubilization method is disclosed.

The present invention relates to ultrasound mediated delivery of antimicrobial agents to sites of infection, and particularly for treatment of infections. Thus, the invention provides a cluster composition and a pharmaceutical composition, for use in delivery and preparation for administration of antimicrobial agents and treatment of infections.

Methods and agents that target nanog or Oct4 expression or activity for treating or preventing cancer are disclosed. Alternative methods involve diagnosing cancer stage or type by identifying presence of cancer cells expressing nanog or Oct4. Also, disclosed are method of treating coronavirus infection that involves administering antiviral knockdown agents, such as oligonucleotide-based inhibitors.

Some embodiments pertain to nanoparticle-based compositions and their use in methods for the delivery of therapeutic agents to subjects. In some embodiments, the compositions are stable for prolonged periods of time and provide enhanced bioavailability.

A method of treating or alleviating symptoms of a disorder or a condition in a subject, including identifying the disorder or the condition of a subject, the disorder or condition identified based on first measures of a bloodstream concentration of a substance or a blood stream count of cellular elements, orally administering to said subject an amount of cannabidiol over a period of time effective treat or alleviate symptoms of said disorder or said condition, altering the bloodstream concentration of said substance or said blood stream count of cellular elements, and assessing efficacy of treating or alleviating symptoms of the disorder or the condition evidenced by comparing second measures of the bloodstream concentration of the substance or the blood stream count of cellular elements after the period time to the first measures of bloodstream concentration of the substance or the blood stream count of cellular elements.
