The present invention provides an inhalation-type pharmaceutical composition for gout and preparation method thereof, comprising a first gas and an atomized medicine. The first gas comprises hydrogen. The gas volume concentration of hydrogen in the inhalation-type pharmaceutical composition is between 2 to 96%. The atomized medicine is selected from a group comprising colchicine, allopurinol, probenecid, sulfinpyrazone, and any combination thereof. The inhalation-type pharmaceutical composition of the present invention can remove harmful radicals in the body of the patient through the use of hydrogen while also increases the absorption effect of the medicine for the patient by using an atomized medicine. At the same time, because the use of the small amount of the vaporized pharmaceutical liquid can indirectly reduce the side effects on the user.

Described are pharmacological compositions comprising a gum resin; a pharmacologically active agent and a topically acceptable volatile solvent for the gum resin and active agent. Also described are methods for the transdermal or transmucosal delivery of a pharmacologically active agent using such compositions.

Methods and devices treating an autonomic nervous system associated disease condition in a subject are provided. Aspects of the invention include inducing one or more physiological response selected from the group consisting of sweating, gastric emptying, enhanced heart rate variability and enhanced quantitative sensory test responsiveness in a manner sufficient to modify the autonomic nervous system so as to treat the subject for the disease condition. The methods and devices find use in a variety of applications, e.g. in the treatment of subjects suffering from conditions arising from disorders of the autonomic nervous system.

The present invention relates to a cell therapy composition for preventing or treating immune disease comprising mesenchymal stem cells and immunoregulatory T-cells as an active ingredient. By infusing mesenchymal stem cells and immunoregulatory T-cells, which are the cellular therapeutic agent of the present invention, into bone marrow transplant animals, rejection to the host is suppressed after the engraftment of the transplanted bone-marrow to thus obtain the effect of reducing graft-versus-host disease and immune disease. Moreover, the effect of such GVHD reduction is much greater than the one obtained when only mesenchymal stem cells are infused. Accordingly, the cell therapy composition of the present invention having the above-mentioned effects can be useful in the prevention or treatment of immune disease.

Described herein are methods for enhancing engraftment of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells using farnesyl compounds identified using a zebrafish model of hematopoietic cell engraftment. The compounds can be used to treat hematopoietic stem cells ex vivo prior to transplantation of the cells. Alternatively, the compounds can be administered to an individual undergoing cell transplantation.
