The present invention is related to novel methods for categorizing and treating a population of subjects that are at risk for increased pulmonary exacerbation and disease progression.

The present invention relates to methods and compositions for monitoring, diagnosis, prognosis, and determination of treatment regimens in subjects suffering from or suspected of having a renal injury. In particular, the invention relates to using assays that detect one or more of Metalloproteinase inhibitor 1, Metalloproteinase inhibitor 2, Metalloproteinase inhibitor 4, C—C motif chemokine 15, C—C motif chemokine 18, C—C motif chemokine 23, and/or, C—C motif chemokine 24 as diagnostic and prognostic biomarker assays in renal injuries.

Provided herein are peptide formulations comprising polymers as stabilizing agents. The peptide formulations can be more stable for prolonged periods of time at temperatures higher than room temperature when formulated with the polymers. The polymers used in the present invention can decrease the degradation of the constituent peptides of the peptide formulations.

The present application provides compositions and methods for determining a disease or condition in a subject. The method comprises contacting a body fluid with a molecule comprising a reporter thereof and the reported is cleaved by an agent in the body fluid. Diseases and conditions that can be determined by the method are also described.

Methods for quantifying the amount of drug present in a crosslinked hyaluronic acid-linker-peptide (xHA-L-P) prodrug composition are provided. Disclosed are steps of contacting a sample of the xHA-L-P prodrug formulation with a hyaluronoglucosidase to generate oligomeric hyaluronic acid-linker-peptide drug (oHA-L-P), contacting the oHA-L-P with a second enzyme to generate peptide digest products of the drug, and detecting the peptide digest products to determine the amount of the drug present in the xHA-L-P prodrug formulation.

The present disclosure relates to a metalloprotein binder that specifically binds to a N-terminally modified peptide. Also provided herein is a method and related kits for treating or analyzing a peptide using the metalloprotein binder and/or modified cleavase. In some embodiments, the method provided herein comprises binding metalloprotein binder-coding tag conjugates to a modified N-terminal amino acid residue of an immobilized peptide associated with a recording tag, transferring identifying information from the coding tag to the recording tag using a ligation or primer extension, and cleaving the modified N-terminal amino acid residue. The method and metalloprotein binders provided herein are useful for de novo peptide identification or sequencing.

The present application provides compositions and methods for determining a disease or condition in a subject. The method comprises contacting a body fluid with a molecule comprising a reporter thereof and the reported is cleaved by an agent in the body fluid. Diseases and conditions that can be determined by the method are also described.

The present disclosure relates to a method for detecting a brain injury in a subject by comparing the amount of ADAM10 protein in a blood sample from the subject to a reference standard or to the amount of ADAM10 in a blood sample from a control. An increase in the amount of ADAM10 in the subject blood sample relative to the reference standard or control is indicative of the subject having sustained a brain injury, in particular a traumatic brain injury (TBI). The present disclosure also provides novel antibody and antibody fragments that bind to ADAM10 at different positions.

The present application provides compositions and methods for determining a disease or condition in a subject. The method comprises contacting a body fluid with a molecule comprising a reporter thereof and the reported is cleaved by an agent in the body fluid. Diseases and conditions that can be determined by the method are also described.
