Disclosed are applications of a mussel adhesive protein or preparations thereof in suppression of skin inflammations. Specifically disclosed are applications of a mussel adhesive protein, preparations thereof and applications thereof in dermatitis, eczema, skin ulcer, technologies related to burns (comprising skin grafting), perniones, surgical incisions, herpes, abrasions, scars, psoriasis, erythema multiforme, skin damage after radiotherapy, skin cancers, folliculitis, urticaria and drug eruption, and applications in sunburn, polymorphous light eruption, pathological alopecia (comprising hair transplant), acne vulgaris, rosacea (that is, acne rosacea), and the like, and applications in the treatment of otitis externa.

The present invention relates to Protoxin-II variants, polynucleotides encoding them, and methods of making and using the foregoing.

Disclosed is an isolated immunoglobulin. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions and medicaments comprising the immunoglobulin, isolated nucleic acid encoding it, vectors, host cells, useful in methods of making it. In some embodiments the immunoglobulin comprises one to twenty-four pharmacologically active chemical moieties conjugated thereto, such as a pharmacologically active polypeptide.

Disclosed are a conotoxin polypeptide κ-CPTx-bt101, a method for preparation thereof, and an application thereof. The conotoxin polypeptide of the present invention consists of 18 amino acids, has a molecular weight of 1872.72 daltons, and has the full sequence KCCTMSVCQPPPVCTCCA (SEQ. ID NO. 1).

Provided herein is a single component sealant formulation (e.g. in a liquid form), methods for its preparation, and use. The formulation includes fibrinogen; vitamin K-dependent clotting zymogens comprising at least Factor II (FII) and Factor X (FX).

The present invention is directed to immunmodulators in the form of compositions, compounds, proteins and/or fragments with RNase activity thereof for use in the treatment of diseases associated with fat accumulation, including obesity and obesity-related disorders and metabolic disorders.

The present invention relates to methods of treating or preventing rheumatic disease.

Structurally stabilized, e.g., stapled, peptides with the ability to translocate through microbial cell membranes to the interior of microbial cells and exert a biological activity there are provided, as are methods of designing, making and using such peptides.

A system, including methods and compositions, for treatment of ischemia.

Compositions, methods, strategies, kits, and systems for the supercharged protein-mediated delivery of functional effector proteins into cells in vivo, ex vivo, or in vitro are provided. Compositions, methods, strategies, kits, and systems for delivery of functional effector proteins using cationic lipids and cationic polymers are also provided. Functional effector proteins include, without limitation, transcriptional modulators (e.g., repressors or activators), recombinases, nucleases (e.g., RNA-programmable nucleases, such as Cas9 proteins; TALE nuclease, and zinc finger nucleases), deaminases, and other gene modifying/editing enzymes. Functional effector proteins include TALE effector proteins, e.g., TALE transcriptional activators and repressors, as well as TALE nucleases. Compositions, methods, strategies, and systems for the delivery of functional effector proteins into cells is useful for therapeutic and research purposes, including, but not limited to, the targeted manipulation of a gene associated with disease, the modulation of the expression level of a gene associated with disease, and the programming of cell fate.
