The invention is directed at a medicament comprising a combination of dehydrated or cryopreserved amniotic membrane isolated from human or other mammalian placenta, wherein the amniotic membrane is in a form of a sheet or a sheet composite comprising multiple overlain sheets of amniotic membrane; and umbilical cord blood serum, isolated from umbilical cord blood of a human or other mammal, separately of each other, for combined use in a method of treating a tissue wound in a human or other mammalian subject by applying the amniotic membrane to injured tissue of the wound to contact injured tissue of the wound and contacting the amniotic membrane with the umbilical cord blood serum.

The object of the invention is topical compositions comprising pea proteins and polyphenols and the use thereof for the treatment of local or generalised disorders caused by increased permeation of the natural epithelial barriers. Said disorders may be of bacterial, viral, inflammatory, allergic and/or fungal origin, or endogenous or idiopathic.

The present invention provides a novel compound having an excellent β-lactamase inhibitory effect. The present invention provides: a compound which has an excellent β-lactamase inhibitory effect, and is represented by formula (1a), (1b) or (11); or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. This compound provides a prophylactic or therapeutic agent effective for bacterial infections when used in combination with β-lactam-based drugs or used as a single agent. The present invention also provides a prophylactic or therapeutic agent effective for treating various diseases, by being used in combination with β-lactam-based drugs.

The present disclosure generally relates to compositions and methods for modulating mitochondrial dynamic and function in skin conditions.

The present invention provides a composition comprising a polymer and a natural or synthetic peptide or protein (NSPP). The composition forms a hydrogel with water. The composition is useful as a filler for cosmetic and therapeutic applications. Embodiments of the invention provide methods of treating certain conditions using the composition or hydrogel, and surgical kits for the simultaneous or sequential administration of the respective components of the composition, enabling the formation of the hydrogel in situ.

Dosage units consist of an autologous cell therapy product composed of fibroblasts grown for each individual to be treated. The suspension of autologous fibroblasts, grown from a biopsy of each individual's own skin using current good manufacturing practices (CGMP), and standard tissue culture procedures, is supplied in vials containing cryopreserved fibroblasts or precursors thereof, having a purity of at least 98% fibroblasts and a viability of at least 85%, for administration of from one to six mL, preferably two mL, of cells at a concentration of from 1.0-2.0×10.sup.7 cells/mL. When injected into the nasolabial fold wrinkles (creases on the sides of the nose that extend to the corners of the mouth), the autologous fibroblasts are thought to increase the synthesis of extracellular matrix components, including collagen, reducing the severity of these wrinkles. Dosage and timing of administration have been demonstrated to be critical to achieving clinically significant outcomes.

The present disclosure describes novel peptides, including peptides that inhibit the proteolytic activity of insulin-de-grading enzyme (IDE). Also described are cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations including these peptides, as well as a treatment method aimed at improving the appearance and/or texture of skin and/or promoting wound healing and a method for treating diabetes. The disclosed peptides and formulations are particularly useful for addressing the problem of impaired wound healing in diabetes.
