The invention relates to a transdermal therapeutic system (TTS) for delivering pharmaceutical active ingredients. The TTS includes a cover layer and at least one active-ingredient-containing carrier material. At least one retaining element is located between the active-ingredient-containing carrier material and the cover layer, with the retaining element fixing the active-ingredient-containing carrier material onto the cover layer. The invention further relates to a method for fastening an active-ingredient-containing carrier material to a cover layer of a TTS in the presence of hook-and-loop strip segments and the use of a hook-and-loop strip in transdermal or iontophoretic administration of pharmaceutical or therapeutic active ingredients to patients.

Analogues of PYY differing from native human PYY by substitution of Ser23 with Ala23, Glu23, Lys23, Gln23 or AIB23. Further optional features include substitutions at further positions, loss of the Tyr1 residue of native human PYY and amidation of the C-terminus. Suitable for use as pharmaceuticals for treating and preventing disorders, in particular diabetes and obesity.

The present disclosure provides compositions and formulations containing neuropeptide Y and methods of their use for the treatment of mood and anxiety disorders.

The present invention refers to NPY Y1 receptor-targeting peptide moieties, and their use for the target-specific treatment of cancers and other diseases.

The invention provides materials and methods for the treatment of obesity and excess weight, diabetes, and other associated metabolic disorders. In particular, the invention provides novel acylated glucagon analogue peptides effective in such methods. The peptides may mediate their effect by having increased selectivity for the GLP-1 receptor as compared to human glucagon.

The present invention relates to a novel peptide exhibiting an effect of releasing myelopoiesis stem cells into blood and an osteoporosis therapeutic effect and use thereof and, in particularly, to a novel peptide consisting of an amino acid sequence of SEQ. ID.NO:1 which has effects of releasing hematopoietic stem cells into a bloodstream and decreasing osteoclast cells in bone narrow, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the novel peptide as an active ingredient for preventing or treating neutropenia, anemia or osteoporosis. Because of side effects, the peptide of the present invention not only increases level of leukocytes, red blood cells and platelets in blood, but also alleviates a decrease in bone density, and therefore, can be very usefully used for the development of a prophylactic or therapeutic agent for neutropenia, anemia or osteoporosis.

Described herein are methods for treating a subject having or at risk of developing an autoimmune or inflammatory condition or an infection by administering a neuromodulating agent.

The present invention relates to a peptide hormone with one or more O-glycans attached at specific amino acid residues as well as to formulations comprising the same.
