Therapeutical methods, formulations and nutraceutical formulations
Compositions and methods are described for the prevention, treatment, or management of sexual dysfunction, such as premature ejaculation. The method comprises administering an effective amount of tetrahydropalmatine or its derivative or Rhizoma Corydalis extract containing composition to a human male on an as-needed basis shortly before sexual activity to delay ejaculation.
Enrichment-triggered chemical delivery system
Disclosed herein is a chemical delivery system having: i) a cargo compound comprising a first reactive moiety covalently bonded to a first enrichment moiety and a tethered cargo moiety, wherein the first reactive moiety is bonded to the tethered cargo moiety via a cleavable linker; and ii) a trigger compound comprising a second reactive moiety covalently bonded to a second enrichment moiety and a cargo-releasing moiety. The first enrichment moiety and the second enrichment moiety cause an increase in concentration of the cargo compound and the concentration of the trigger compound at a target site, causing a bimolecular reaction between the first reactive moiety and the second reactive moiety to form a cyclization precursor compound. The cargo moiety is then released from the cyclization precursor compound in a unimolecular cyclization reaction. Methods for treating conditions such as cancer, inflammatory conditions, and infections with the chemical delivery systems are also described.

MITORIBOSCINS: MITOCHONDRIAL-BASED THERAPEUTICS TARGETING CANCER CELLS, BACTERIA, AND PATHOGENIC YEAST
The present disclosure relates to inhibitors of mitochondrial function. Methods of screening compounds for mitochondrial inhibition are disclosed. Also described are methods of using mitochondrial inhibitors called mitoriboscins—mitochondrial-based therapeutic compounds having anti-cancer and antibiotic properties—to prevent or treat cancer, bacterial infections, and pathogenic yeast, as well as methods of using mitochondrial inhibitors to provide anti-aging benefits. Specific mitoriboscin compounds and groups of mitoriboscins are also disclosed.

Pharmaceutical Composition Comprising an Artemisinin Derivative for Nasal or Pulmonary Delivery
The present invention relates to pharmaceutical composition for intranasal or pulmonary delivery, wherein the composition comprises an artemisinin derivative and optionally one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The pharmaceutical composition may be for intranasal delivery, may be in the form of a nasal spray, a solution, a suspension, nasal drops, an insufflation powder or a nasal powder, and may be suitable for delivery using a nebulizer, insufflator, powder sprayer or powder inhaler. Alternatively, the pharmaceutical composition may be for pulmonary delivery, may be in the form of an aerosol composition or a powder, and may be suitable for delivery using a metered dose inhaler (MDI) or a dry powder inhaler (DPI). The present invention also relates to processes for preparing such compositions and to the use of such compositions for the treatment of malaria.
