Disclosed are compositions of matter, therapeutics, and protocols useful for reduction and/or reversion of pulmonary fibrosis. In one specific embodiment lithium chloride is administered together with a regenerative cell in a patient suffering from, or at risk of pulmonary fibrosis. In one embodiment said lithium chloride is administered as an adjuvant to a regenerative therapy, wherein said regenerative therapy is a gene therapy, a protein therapy, a cell therapy, or a tissue transplant. In one embodiment lithium chloride, or a salt thereof is utilized alone, or with a regenerative means, to evoke preservation and/or elongation of telomere length in pulmonary tissue.

Compositions for stabilizing and delivering proteins and/or other bioactive agents are disclosed. The bioactive agents are embedded or encapsulated in a crystalline matrix. Typically the bioactive agents are in the form of micro- or nanoparticles. The crystalline matrix confers enhanced stability to the agents embedded therein relative to other microparticulate or nanoparticulate bioactive agents. The carriers are especially useful for stabilizing bioactive macromolecules, such as proteins.

Described herein is the use of CSF, more particularly external CSF or CSF-like compositions for the treatment and prevention of different diseases. More particularly, the application provides for the administration of CSF to the intrathecal space or the cerebral ventricles of a patient to increase intracranial pressure and/or CSF flow.

The invention relates to inhalable imatinib formulations, manufacture, and uses thereof.

A non-cellular root canal filler comprises a tetrahydroisoquinoline compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a solvate of the compound or the salt, and a dental tissue regeneration promotion kit comprises a pretreatment agent comprising a serine protease, and the non-cellular root canal filler.

Disclosed herein are gastrointestinal tract (G1) bacteria and methods for treating or preventing an irradiation-induced intestinal damage in a subject, the methods comprising administering a G1 bacterium to the subject, wherein the G1 bacterium comprises a vector that comprises a polynucleotide encoding IL-22 and/or IFN-P, or a functional fragment thereof.

Provided herein are new compositions, methods, and devices to treat cancer through a combination of immunologic chemotherapeutic agents and ablation techniques. These compositions can include immune checkpoint inhibitors, cytokines and nucleic acid drugs that aid in eliciting an immune response to treat the tumor. The administration of these compositions in addition to various ablating techniques provides a presentation of the cancer cell antigens to the immune system and the immunologic targeting of the cancer.

The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.
