Provided herein is a composition comprising a mixture of ether lipid molecules of Formula (I) as defined herein. The composition is for invivo maintenance of ether lipids at levels and/or ratios associated with a non-disease state, or wherein the composition is for in vivo modification of ether lipids towards levels and/or ratios associated with a non-disease state. Also provided herein are methods of assessing subject for metabolic disease or dyslipidemia, comprising measuring relative abundance of one or more ether lipid side chains in a biological sample from a subject, methods of preventing or treating disorders such as metabolic disease or dyslipidemia, or methods of preventing conditions such as obesity and asthma, particularly in infants, involving administering a composition as defined herein.

An orally deliverable dosage system comprises (a) iron in a form of one or more physiologically acceptable iron grades, compounds and/or complexes; and (b) an agent to mitigate one or more gastrointestinal adverse effects of unabsorbed iron, said agent comprising one or both of a zinc component and a chelator component, said zinc component if present comprising one or more physiologically acceptable zinc compounds and/or complexes, and said chelator component if present comprising an ion-chelating compound formulated for release distal to the primary site of iron absorption in the duodenum.

There is disclosed herein a composition for treating gastrointestinal or neurological disorders, constipation, functional constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, diverticulitis, travelers diarrhoea, chronic idiopathic nausea, IBD-associated constipation and diarrhoea, pseudo-obstruction, diabetic gastroparesis, cyclic vomiting, reflux esophagitis, autism enteropathy, flatulence, halitosis, chronic fatigue, bloating, proctalgia fugax, Parkinson's disease, MS, Alzheimer's Disease, Motor Neuron Disease or autism, the composition comprising: (i) at least two anti-clostridial agents selected from the group consisting of: vancomycin, vancomycin derivatives, a multi-valent polymer of vancomycin, aminoglycosides, nitroimidazoles, ansamysins, nifuroxazide, colchicine, prucalopride, prokinetic agent and 5-aminosalicylic acid; or (ii) at least one anti-clostridial agent selected from the above combined with an opioid blocking agent. There is also disclosed herein a method of treating various gastrointestinal or neurological disorders, constipation, functional constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, diverticulitis, travelers diarrhoea, chronic idiopathic nausea, IBD-associated constipation and diarrhoea, pseudo-obstruction, diabetic gastroparesis, cyclic vomiting, reflux oesophagitis, autism enteropathy, flatulence, halitosis, chronic fatigue, bloating, proctalgia fugax, Parkinson's disease, MS, Alzheimer's Disease, Motor Neuron Disease or autism, the method comprising administering orally, via enema or by suppository: (i) a composition of the invention; (ii) at least two anti-clostridial agents selected from the group consisting of: vancomycin, vancomycin derivatives, a multi-valent polymer of vancomycin, aminoglycosides, nitroimidazoles, ansamysins, nifuroxazide, colchicine, prucalopride, prokinetic agent and 5-aminosalicylic acid; or (iii) at least one anti-clostridial agent selected from the above and an opioid blocking agent to a patient in need of such treatment.

Novel marine lipid compositions comprising triglycerides and omega-3 rich phospholipids are described. The compositions are characterized by providing highly bioavailable omega-3, increased tissue incorporation of omega-3 and reduced concentration of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

The present invention relates to Roseburia flagellin, and/or a polynucleotide sequence encoding said Roseburia flagellin, and/or a vector comprising said polynucleotide sequence, and/or a host cell, including bacteria, comprising said vector, and/or a host cell, including bacteria, comprising said polynucleotide sequence, for use in modulating the inflammation of a tissue or an organ in a subject.

The present invention relates to sustained-release formulations and dosage forms of ruxolitinib, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which are useful in the treatment of Janus kinase-associated diseases such as myeloproliferative disorders.

The present embodiments relate to elite event NS-B50027-4, seeds and oils obtained from NS-B50027-4, progeny derived from NS-B50027-4, the genetic and phenotypic characteristics of NS-B50027-4, and compositions and methods for the identification of elite event NS-B50027-4. In particular, NS-B50027-4 is a transgenic canola line capable of producing at least 5% DHA in its seed oil.

A cochleate composition is disclosed. Following oral administration of the cochleate composition, the pharmacologically active agent is found at higher concentrations in the tissue relative to plasma. Oral administration of these cochleate compositions also preferentially targets infected or inflamed tissue as compared to tissue in a healthy subject. The cochleate composition contains a size-regulating agent that reduces cochleate particle size, such as a lipid-anchored polynucleotide, a lipid-anchored sugar, a lipid-anchored polypeptide, or a bile salt (such as oxycholate or deoxycholate). Also disclosed are methods of treatment using the cochleate composition and methods of increasing the concentration of a pharmacologically active agent in an infected tissue relative to the concentration of the pharmacologically active agent in the plasma or the tissue of a healthy subject.

The present invention is directed to a crystalline sodium salt of 5-methyl-(6S)-tetrahydrofolic acid wherein the molar ratio of 5-methyl-(6S)-tetrahydrofolic acid to sodium is from 1:1.51 to 1:2.5 and/or hydrates and/or solvates thereof, as well as, a process of obtaining the same.
