The present application provides a composition and a method for treating ischemia disease. The composition for treatment of ischemia disease comprises an angiopeptide comprising an amino acid sequence shown as any of SEQ ID Nos: 1 to 3; and a carrier for carrying the angiopeptide. The carrier can be a nanoparticle, a hygrogel or a combination thereof. The method for treatment of ischemia disease comprises administering the composition to a subject.

Provided herein is chitosan dually derivatized with arginine and gluconic acid; and methods of making and using the same, e.g., for gene delivery in vivo.

The present invention relates to glucose-responsive hyaluronic acid nanoparticles having boronic acid compounds chemically bonded thereto, and a composition including the same. When the nanoparticles according to the present invention are used, cancer may be diagnosed and treated using a cancer cell-specific biological mechanism, without the use of existing contrast agents and anticancer agents which have the problem of toxicity.

A material for treatment of brain injury, a method for treatment of brain injury, a material for regeneration of brain neurons, and a method for regeneration of brain neurons are provided. The material for treatment of brain injury contains a carrier on which at least one selected from the group consisting of N-cadherin, a fusion protein containing an entire or partial region of N-cadherin, and a fusion protein containing an entire or partial region of a protein having homology to N-cadherin is immobilized or coated.

The present invention comprises a process for preparing water-dispersible single-chain polymeric nanoparticles, which comprises cross-linking a polymer having a solubility equal to or higher than 100 mg per litre of water, and an amount of complementary reactive groups comprised from 5 to 60 molar % of the total amount of monomer units present in the polymer chain; with a crosslinking agent having crosslinkable groups; at a temperature comprised from 20 to 25 C. in the absence of a catalyst; to obtain water-dispersible conjugates and compositions containing the nanoparticle; and the use thereof.

A nanocomplex, 50 to 1000 nm in size, containing a lipid-like nanoparticle formed of a cationic lipid-based compound and a modified protein formed of a protein and an anionic polymer that includes a plurality of polar groups, the lipid-like nanoparticle and the modified protein being non-covalently bonded to each other. Also disclosed are a method of preparing the above-described nanocomplex and use thereof for treating a medical condition. Further disclosed is a pharmaceutical composition containing a nanocomplex.

This disclosure provides nano-scale Artificial Antigen Presenting Cells (aAPC), which deliver stimulatory signals to lymphocytes, including T-helper lymphocytes, for use as a powerful tool for immunotherapy.

Nanogels and methods of synthesizing and using these nanogels are provided. The nanogels are formed by mixing a building block (e.g., polymer), crosslinker, preferably a target (e.g., biomedical compound or molecule), and a solvent in a multi-inlet vortex mixer, so as to cause the polymer and crosslinker to react and form a chemically crosslinked polymer network. In embodiments including a target, the target will be interspersed in and among that network and can be physically embedded and/or chemically bound therein.

This invention provides for a RSV-targeted nanoparticle PMN (RTPMN), combining HR2D anti-fusion peptide, and plasmid encoded siRNA against RSV-NS1 and/or RSV-P gene as a safe, effective and inexpensive anti-RSV prophylaxis and/or therapy.

Compositions are provided for the liquid oral administration of topiramate and its salts. The invention further provides methods for treating diseases and disorders using the compositions.
