In one aspect, methods of promoting asymmetric nerve growth and/or regeneration are described herein. In some embodiments, such a method comprises exposing a population of transected or severed nerves to a first molecular growth cue and to a second molecular growth cue. The population of transected nerves comprises one or more nerves of a first nerve type and one or more nerves of a second nerve type differing from the first nerve type. Additionally, the first molecular growth cue preferentially promotes growth of the first nerve type, as compared to the second nerve type. Similarly, the second molecular growth cue preferentially promotes growth of the second nerve type, as compared to the first nerve type. Moreover, the first molecular growth cue is spatially separated from the second molecular growth cue.

Disclosed herein are compositions and methods for the treatment of otic disorders with immunomodulating agents and auris pressure modulators. In these methods, the auris compositions and formulations are administered locally to an individual afflicted with an otic disorder, through direct application of the immunomodulating and/or auris pressure modulating compositions and formulations onto the auris media and/or auris interna target areas, or via perfusion into the auris media and/or auris interna structures.

The present invention provides a pharmaceutical preparation for treating a cardiovascular disease. Particularly, the present invention provides a formula of a neuregulin pharmaceutical preparation. The formula consist of neuregulin polypeptide, a buffer, a stabilizer, an excipient, a salt, and another component, can ensure the long-term stability of the neuregulin polypeptide, and can be used for treating a heart failure patient or a patient in a risk of the heart failure.

The present invention relates to a targeting module comprising a chemically synthesized peptide binding moiety specific for a human cell surface protein or protein complex, a kit comprising the targeting module and a vector or a cell comprising a nucleic acid encoding a universal chimeric antigen receptor and the use for the treatment of cancer, infections and autoimmune disorders.

A drug delivery system and methods of using such for delivering a peglyated therapeutic agent to heart. The drug delivery system may comprise an antibody embedded in a hydrogel, comprising one or more biodegradable polymers, up to about 60% of which contain inter-chain or intra-chain covalent crosslinks.

Disclosed are the use of neuregulin proteins in preparing a medicine for preventing, treating or delaying preserved ejection fraction cardiac failure in mammals, and a method for using the medicine. Also provided in the present invention is a method for preventing, treating or delaying preserved ejection fraction cardiac failure in mammals, comprising using the medication containing the neuregulin proteins in a special population having the disease or being at risk of having the disease.

The invention relates to treatment of heart failure in a mammal. Accordingly, the invention is directed to establishing a dosing regimen whereby the therapeutic benefits conferred by administration of a neuregulin such as glial growth factor 2 (GGF2) or a subsequence thereof are maintained and/or enhanced, while concomitantly minimizing any potential side effects.

The present invention provides extended release compositions comprising neuregulin for preventing, treating or delaying various diseases or disorders. The present invention also provides methods for preventing, treating or delaying various diseases or disorders by extended release of neuregulin.
