ROS-responsive liposomes for specific targeting
Provided herein are encapsulated liposomes comprising a lipid bilayer, a first polyethylene glycol (PEG) corona, a targeting molecule and a second PEG corona. The second, encapsulating PEG corona can be reversibly linked to the first PEG corona. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the encapsulated liposomes and methods of treating a subject with a disease characterized by production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) with the compositions. Also provided are methods of making the encapsulated liposomes disclosed herein.
NANOTUBE TRANS-MEMBRANE CHANNELS MIMICKING BIOLOGICAL PORINS
Provided herein is a nanopore structure, which in one aspect is a “carbon nanotube porin”, that comprises a short nanotube with an associated lipid coating. Also disclosed are compositions and methods enabling the preparation of such nanotube/lipid complexes. Further disclosed is a method for therapeutics delivery that involves a drug delivery agent comprising a liposome with a NT loaded with a therapeutic agent, introducing the therapeutic agent into a cell or a tissue or an organism; and subsequent release of the therapeutic agents into a cell.
Nanotube trans-membrane channels mimicking biological porins
Provided herein is a nanopore structure, which in one aspect is a “carbon nanotube porin”, that comprises a short nanotube with an associated lipid coating. Also disclosed are compositions and methods enabling the preparation of such nanotube/lipid complexes. Further disclosed is a method for therapeutics delivery that involves a drug delivery agent comprising a liposome with a NT loaded with a therapeutic agent, introducing the therapeutic agent into a cell or a tissue or an organism; and subsequent release of the therapeutic agents into a cell.
TUNEABLE DELIVERY OF NANOPARTICLE BOUND ACTIVE PLASMIN FOR THE TREATMENT OF THROMBOSIS
Compositions and methods for therapeutic delivery are disclosed. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to nanoparticle compositions that sequester the activity of a target molecule while leaving other domains accessible to bind targeted tissues of interest. Methods for thrombus dissolution include administering a nanoparticle reversibly coupled to a target molecule that can dissolve a blood clot. Compositions and methods for inducing blood clotting are also disclosed. Methods for inducing blood clotting include administering a nanoparticle reversibly coupled to a target molecule that can induce the formation of a blood clot. Methods for sequestering a target molecule are also disclosed. The method includes reversibly coupling a target molecule to a nanoparticle having an affinity ligand that reversibly couples the target molecule, and thus, sequesters the target molecule activity until the target molecule interacts with its substrate resulting in the release of the target molecule.
Targeted polymerized nanoparticles for cancer treatment
The invention relates to a novel drug delivery vehicle. Various embodiments of the invention provide a hybrid polymerized liposomal nanoparticle comprising both polymerizable lipids and non-polymerizable lipids. Therapeutic agents can be loaded into the polymerized liposomal nanoparticle and targeting agents can be conjugated to the surface of the polymerized liposomal nanoparticle. Also described in the invention are methods, compositions and kits that utilize the hybrid polymerized liposomal nanoparticle to treat disease conditions such as various cancers.
Trans-Tympanic Membrane Delivery Platform and Uses Thereof
Provided herein are methods and composition for trans-tympanic membrane delivery of therapeutic agents such as antimicrobial agents, anti-inflammatory agents, and anti-biofilm agents to the middle ear for rapid, localized treatment and prevention of diseases and conditions associated with a middle ear infection. In particular, provided herein are cationic, anionic, and polymer-based nanoparticles that provide a platform for delivery of therapeutic cargo, as well as cationic, anionic, and polymer-based nanoparticles compositions for rapid, localized delivery of therapeutic agents to the middle ear.
Combination HIV therapeutic
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to particles having a Bryoid and a HDAC inhibitor for the treatment of latent viral disease.
Drug loaded flexible chitoplexes nanoparticles
Chitosan-coated, flexible lipid-based nanoparticles are provided. The nanoparticles (“chitoplexes”) comprise an interior comprising a mixture of a phospholipid, an edge activator, a charge inducing agent, and a statin; and an exterior chitosan coating which encapsulates the interior mixture. The chitoplexes exhibit enhanced bioavailability with respect to delivering the statins encapsulated therein to a subject, for example, for the treatment of cancer.
Liposomes useful for drug delivery
The present invention provides liposome compositions containing substituted ammonium and/or polyanion, and optionally with a desired therapeutic or imaging entity. The present invention also provide methods of making the liposome compositions provided by the present invention.
Stabilizing Camptothecin Pharmaceutical Compositions
Irinotecan phospholipid liposomes with improved storage stability are provided, with related methods of treatment and manufacture. The irinotecan liposomes can have reduced formation of lyso-phosphatidylcholine (lyso-PC) during storage, and prior to administration to a patient.
