The present disclosure relates to the use of angiotensinogen, angiotensin I, angiotensin I, angiotensin III, and/or angiotensin IV in therapeutic methods for the treatment of hypotension, such as catecholamine-resistant hypotension.

The present invention provides methods for limiting development of skin wounds, and also for treatment of one or more of erythemas, blisters, rashes, pruritis, contact dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema, acne, and athlete's foot.

The present disclosure generally relates to the use of des-aspartate-angiotensin I and/or its derivatives in medicine. In particular, the present invention relates to the use of des-aspartate-angiotensin I and/or its derivatives for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of inflammatory diseases or pathologies, for inducing anti-inflammatory actions and/or reducing inflammation, and/or for treatment of inflammation-related conditions.

The present invention provides oligopeptides, in particular, Ang-(1-7) derivatives, and methods for using and producing the same. In one particular embodiment, oligopeptides of the invention have higher blood-brain barrier penetration and/or in vivo half-life compared to the native Ang-(1-7), thereby allowing oligopeptides of the invention to be used in a wide variety of clinical applications including in treatment of cognitive dysfunction and/of impairment.

Methods are provided herein for enhancing the effectiveness of medical therapies by administering agents that suppress a biological damage response that is inducible by the medical therapy administered to a subject. In certain embodiments, a method is provided for administering an anti-senescent cell agent that suppresses a biological response comprising cellular senescence that is induced by the medical therapy.

A method for treating a patient suffering from one of septic shock, acute kidney injury, severe hypotension, cardiac arrest, and refractory hypotension, but not from myocardial infarction, is provided. The method includes administering a therapeutically effective dose of Angiotensin II, or Ang II, to the patient.

A nonaqueous, single-phase vehicle that is capable of suspending an active agent. The nonaqueous, single-phase vehicle includes at least one solvent and at least one polymer and is formulated to exhibit phase separation upon contact with an aqueous environment. The at least one solvent may be selected from the group consisting of benzyl benzoate, decanol, ethyl hexyl lactate, and mixtures thereof and the at least one polymer may be selected from the group consisting of a polyester, pryyolidone, ester of an unsaturated alcohol, ether of an unsaturated alcohol, polyoxyethylenepolyoxypropylene block copolymer, and mixtures thereof. In one embodiment, the at least one solvent is benzyl benzoate and the at least one polymer is polyvinylpyrrolidone. A stable, nonaqueous suspension formulation that includes the nonaqueous, single-phase vehicle and an active agent, and a method of forming the same, are also disclosed.

Provided herein are dosage forms and kits comprising angiotensin II that are suitable for the treatment of low blood pressure. In particular, dosage forms and kits that facilitate the ability to rapidly prepare angiotensin II for IV infusion into a subject.

Provided are methods for treating subjects with coronavirus infections. The methods include providing a subject infected with a coronavirus resulting in a prothrombotic condition in addition to being infected by a coronavirus, and administering to the subject an angiotensin (1-7) peptide or an analog or derivative thereof, a Mas Receptor (MasR) agonist, or any combination thereof. The subject may be suffering from COVID-19 disease, including but not limited to a thrombotic complication, an adverse pregnancy outcome, and/or a complication resulting from an underlying prothrombotic state. Also provided are compositions that include Ang (1-7) peptides, analogs, and/or derivatives thereof that are associated with degradable and/or non-degradable polymers having electrostatic interactions therewith, hydrophobic interaction therewith, hydrogen bonding interactions therewith, or any combination thereof. Also provided are uses of Ang (1-7) peptides, analogs, and/or derivatives thereof and/or a Mas Receptor (MasR) agonists for treating subjects infected with coronaviruses and/or for preparing medicaments therefore.

A method for treating a patient suffering from one of septic shock, acute kidney injury, severe hypotension, cardiac arrest, and refractory hypotension, but not from myocardial infarction, is provided. The method includes administering a therapeutically effective dose of Angiotensin II, or Ang II, to the patient.
