The present invention relates to a composition, in particular a cosmetic composition, comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least glyceryl caprylate, 1,3-propanediol and phytic acid or any of the salts thereof, said composition being free from perlite. The present invention further relates to a composition, in particular a cosmetic composition, comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least glyceryl caprylate, 1,3-propanediol and phytic acid or any of the salts thereof.

Gold(I) complex with mixed ligands as an anticancer agent. The gold(I) ion is coordinated to a dithiocarbamate ligand and a phosphorus-containing ligand (e.g. phosphines). Also described are a pharmaceutical composition incorporating the gold(I) complex, a methods of synthesizing the gold(I) complex, and a method for treating cancer.

The present discovery pertains generally to the field of therapeutic compounds. More specifically the present discovery pertains to certain di-alkyl-phosphinoyl-alkanes as described herein, DIPA-1-8 and DIPA-1-9, and 2-6 and 2-7 that are collectively referred to herein as “DAPA compounds”, that are useful in the treatment of disorders (e.g., diseases) including: sensory discomfort (e.g., caused by inflammation, irritation, itch, or pain) in the nasal cavity. The applicant has found that localized delivery of DAPA compounds in combination with an intranasal steroid or an intranasal antihistamine immediately relieves nasal discomfort and enhances patient adherence to the use of the nasal medications.

The invention include glycopeptides having a glycoside and a peptide covalently bound through an amide bond. The glycopeptides may also include a diagnostic or therapeutic agent bound to the glycopeptide. A metal, such as a radionuclide, may also be chelated to the glycopeptide. Specific embodiments of the invention relate to glycopeptides made of chitosan covalently bound to a poly(amino acid) such as poly(glutamic acid) or poly(aspartic acid). Diagnostic agents conjugated to the glycopeptide may facilitate imaging. Specific therapeutic agents that may be conjugated to the glycopeptide include anticancer drugs, rheumatoid arthritis drugs, anticoagulants, anti-angiogenesis drugs, apoptosis drugs, osteoporosis drugs, steroids, and anti-inflammatory drugs. Some agents, such as radionuclides, may have both diagnostic and therapeutic effects. The glycopeptides may be made by combining a glycoside and a peptide in the presence of a carbodiimide and an acid group activator to form an amide bond between the glycoside and the peptide.

A method of oral delivery of phospholipid/inulin compositions comprising capsules, tablets, chewable wafers or powdered material in a liquid carrier in quantities effective for treating pain from overactive neurons. The phospholipid/inulin compositions were also shown to be effective in reducing depression and intestinal malfunctions including, but not limited to, diarrhea and constipation, and improving sleep pattern. The compositions further including effective amounts of caffeine also reduces fatigue and enhances alertness and focus.
