The present invention relates to a novel probiotic composition for regulation of intestinal immunity and, more specifically, to a composition including Lactobacillus johnsonii, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Bifidobacterium animalis subspecies lactis as active ingredients for suppressing inflammation and/or preventing, ameliorating, or treating inflammatory bowel diseases.

The present invention describes novel nanoparticle compositions, and systems and methods utilizing them for treating disorders and/or conditions. Methods generally involve administering nanoparticle compositions (e.g., nanoparticle compositions comprising at least one known therapeutic agent and/or independently active biologically active agent; and/or empty nanoparticle compositions) to a subject in need thereof.

The present disclosure relates to the use of Compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for the treatment of mast cell diseases and eosinophilic disorders.

##STR00001##

The disclosures herein relate to novel compounds of formula ##STR00001##
wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 and n are defined herein, and their use in treating, preventing, ameliorating, controlling or reducing the risk of inflammation, neurological or psychiatric disorders associated with modulating mGlu5 receptor function.

The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of Linaclotide by oxidizing linear Linaclotide of formula (II) using combination of air and oxidizing agent followed by purification using RP-HPLC.

The present disclosure relates to crystalline solid forms of a stimulator of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), Compound I: ##STR00001##
Also provided herein are methods for the preparation of these solid forms. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical formulations and dosage forms comprising these solid forms and their uses thereof, alone or in combination with one or more additional agents, for treating and/or preventing various diseases or disorders; these diseases or disorders are ones that may benefit from sGC stimulation or from an increase in the concentration of nitric oxide (NO) and/or cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP).

Described is an antagonist of a mammalian P2X7R for use in the treatment of a hyperinflammatory syndrome in a mammalian patient, by primary lymph node targeted administration of the said P2X7R antagonist in the said patient to a concentration in the said targeted lymph nodes that is above the maximal tolerable plasma level of the said antagonist in the said mammal.

Cannabinoid oil compositions may be used to treat gastrointestinal disorders. An example of the composition is an oral multiparticulate dosage form including a plurality of individual particulates including a solid core with an effective amount of cannabinoid oil bound in microcrystalline cellulose therein and an enteric coating over the solid core.

Provided herein are methods and compositions for the amelioration of inflammatory disorders comprising the intestinal expression of programmed death ligand 1.
