Described herein are compounds and methods for tethering proteins. For example, dimers of proteins, including SOD1 and DJ-1, are described, where the dimers are formed by the covalent bonding of a cysteine on the first monomer to a cysteine on the second monomer via a cyclic disulfide linker. The covalently attached dimers exhibit increased stabilization.

Described herein are methods for delivering an anti-cancer agent to a tumor in a subject. The method involves administering to the subject (i) gold particles and (ii) at least one-anti-cancer agent directly or indirectly bonded to the macromolecule and/or unbound to the macromolecule; and exposing the tumor to light for a sufficient time and wavelength in order for the gold particles to achieve surface plasmon resonance and heating the tumor.

Embodiments of the present invention relate generally the use of certain compositions, e.g., compositions comprising a glutathione precursor and a selenium source, in the therapy of subjects suffering from diseases associated with hyperiipidemia and/or hypercholesterolemia. Related embodiments of the present invention relate to treatment and/or reducing the incidence of the side effects of statin therapy comprising administering to a subject in need, a composition comprising a glutathione precursor and a selenium source. Embodiments of the invention also relate to the use of the compositions in combination therapy with other agents such as statins, cholesterol absorption inhibitors, bile acid binding resins, or fibrates. In other embodiments, the invention relates to the use of such compositions comprising the glutathione precursor and the selenium source in the therapy of subjects suffering from erectile dysfunction and/or viral diseases such as Ebola virus disease (EVD) or Ebola hemorrhagic fever (EHF).
