The present invention relates to a composition which comprises peptides derived from S-Arrestin (retinal arrestin, S-antigen, S-Ag). The composition or peptides may be useful in the prevention and/or suppression of S-Ag autoimmunity, which is useful in the treatment and/or prevention of uveitis.

The invention relates to compounds exhibiting kallikrein inhibitory activity, and to compositions comprising at least one of these compounds for use in the treatment of diseases or disorders in which kallikrein activity is dysregulated, particularly neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases.

A composition for use in the treatment and/or prevention of adverse side effects induced by an anti-cancer compound, said composition comprising an aqueous liquid extract, the aqueous liquid extract comprising Phycocyanin. The present invention also relates to the use of this aqueous liquid extract comprising Phycocyanin and optionally Spirulina polysaccharides, for the treatment and/or prevention of adverse side effects induced by an anti-cancer compound.

Indeed, Phycocyanin, thanks to its antioxidant effects, can reduce the undesirable side effects induced by an anti-cancer compound.

The present invention pertains to an inventive release mechanism for extracellular vesicle (EV)-mediated intracellular and intramembrane delivery of therapeutic polypeptides. More specifically, the invention relates to EVs comprising polypeptide constructs which comprise a therapeutic polypeptide releasably attached to an exosomal polypeptide. Furthermore, the present invention pertains to manufacturing methods, pharmaceutical compositions, medical uses and applications, and various other embodiments related to the inventive EVs.

It is an object of the present invention to provide an extract from inflamed skins of rabbits inoculated with vaccinia virus wherein the quality is more stabilized, and a preparation containing the extract, etc. The use of the amount of N-acetylneuraminic acid contained in an extract from inflamed skins of rabbits inoculated with vaccinia virus and a preparation containing the extract as an index makes possible to warrant the quality of each manufacturing lot of the extract and the preparation in more stable manner. The extract from inflamed skins of rabbits inoculated with vaccinia virus and the preparation containing the extract which are manufactured as above, and in which the quality thereof becomes more stable, are warranted to maintain efficacy and safety in more strict manner, and thus extremely useful.
