This invention relates to methods of administering compounds containing selenium, selenocysteine, or a selenocysteine peptide to treat, for example, conditions associated with selenium deficiency, or ferroptoptic, parthanototic, and endoplasmic reticulum stress, and/or cancer. The methods of treatment may activate or inhibit (via TFAP2C and Sp1 proteins) the adaptive homeostatic response of the selenome. The compounds may contain a targeting sequence that causes them to be delivered to specific organs and/or tissues. The compounds may be administered, for example, orally, intranasally, intravenously, or by a minimally invasive catheter or BrainPath.

Compositions and methods, including novel homogeneous microparticulate suspensions, are described for treating acute wounds, chronic wounds and/or a wound or epithelial tissue surface that contains bacterial biofilm, including unexpected synergy between bismuth-thiol (BT) compounds and certain antibiotics, to provide topical formulations including antiseptic formulations, for management and promotion of wound healing and in particular infected wounds. Previously unpredicted antibacterial properties and anti-biofilm properties of disclosed BT compounds and BT compound-plus-antibiotic combinations are also described, including preferential efficacies of certain such compositions for treating gram-positive bacterial infections, and distinct preferential efficacies of certain such compositions for treating gram-negative bacterial infections.

The invention provides methods of decreasing immune response by inhibiting iron-dependent cellular disassembly. The decrease in immune response may be used, for example, for treatment of a disorder associated with iron-dependent cellular disassembly, including an autoimmune disorder, allergy, or an inflammatory disorder. The invention also provides screening assays for identification of compounds that inhibit iron-dependent cellular disassembly and are also immunoinhibitory agents.
