The disclosure provides peptide compositions and immunotherapy compositions comprising an amyloid-beta (A?) peptide and a tau peptide. The disclosure also provides methods of treating or effecting prophylaxis of Alzheimer's disease or other diseases with beta-amyloid deposition in a subject, including methods of clearing deposits, inhibiting or reducing aggregation of A? and/or tau, blocking the uptake by neurons, clearing amyloid, and inhibiting propagation of tau seeds in a subject having or at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease or other diseases containing tau and/or amyloid-beta accumulations. The methods include administering to such patients the compositions comprising an amyloid-beta (A?) peptide and a tau peptide.

The present disclosure provides compositions including recombinant B 11 bacteriophages, methods for making the same, and uses thereof. The recombinant B 11 bacteriophages disclosed herein are useful for the identification and/or antibiotic susceptibility profiling of specific bacterial strains/species present in a sample.

The present invention relates to a mutated parvovirus structural protein, comprising at least one insertion comprising a sequence of at least six consecutive amino acids comprised within amino acids 320 to 641 of human HSP70i. Furthermore, the invention relates to multimeric structures comprising the protein, VLPs, a method of producing the mutated parvovirus structural protein and to medicaments or vaccines comprising the mutated parvovirus structural protein that may be used for treating vitiligo or other autoimmune diseases.

The invention relates to a peptide dendrimer described by a general formula X(B.sup.2[Y.sup.2].sub.S-D.sup.1).sub.2-B.sup.1Z, wherein X is (D.sup.2)4 or (D.sup.3).sub.8-(B.sup.3[Y.sup.3].sub.r-D.sup.2).sub.4 or a higher analog, Y is a linkage moiety, Z is a central moiety; each B denotes a diaminoalkylcarboxylic acid moiety; each D is a hydrophobic or cationic amino acid, or a di- or tripeptide composed of hydrophobic and cationic amino acids, for use as a pharmaceutical.
