摘要:
Provided are methods for enhancing hippocampal plasticity and hippocampal-mediated learning and memory, and/or enhancing the synaptic maturation of neurons, and/or optimizing or enhancing neuronal synaptic transmission, and/or enhancing intracellular oxygen delivery or utilization, and/or enhancing ATP synthesis, comprising administration, to a subject in need thereof of a sufficient amount over a sufficient time, of an ionic aqueous solution of charge-stabilized oxygen-containing nanostructures (e.g., nanobubbles) having an average diameter of less than 100 nm (e.g., in at least one subject group selected from but not limited to normal subjects, subjects recovering from neurological trauma (e.g., accidents or injury to the brain, stroke, oxygen deprivation, drowning, and asphyxia), and subjects with learning disorders (e.g., dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia, dyspraxia (sensory integration disorder), dysphasia/aphasia, auditory processing disorder, non-verbal learning disorder, visual processing disorder, and attention deficit disorder (ADD)).
摘要:
Particular aspects provide compositions and methods for treating or preventing bacterial infection or at least one symptom related to bacterial infection, and the like in a subject in need thereof by administering a therapeutic composition comprising at least one electrokinetically generated fluid (including gas-enriched electrokinetically generated fluids) as disclosed herein, the electrokinetically altered aqueous fluid suitable to alter cellular membrane structure or function sufficient to provide for modulation of intracellular signal transduction, wherein treating bacterial infection or at least one symptom related to bacterial infection is thereby afforded. In particular embodiments, the fluids are gas-enriched fluids or therapeutic compositions and methods, and include oxygen-enriched water optionally in combination with other therapeutic agents. Other embodiments include particular routes of administration or formulations for the gas-enriched therapeutic compositions.
摘要:
Provided are methods for treating cardiovascular diseases and related conditions and symptoms (e.g., cardiac arrhythmia, vascular disease, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, myocarditis, atherosclerosis, and restenosis), comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of an electrokinetically altered aqueous fluid as described herein. In particular aspects, the electrokinetically altered aqueous fluids comprise an ionic aqueous solution of charge-stabilized oxygen-containing nanostructures predominantly having an average diameter of less than about 100 nanometers and sufficient to provide modulation of at least one of cellular membrane potential and cellular membrane conductivity. Provided are routes of administration or formulations for the electrokinetically-altered fluids (e.g., electrokinetically-altered gas-enriched fluids and solutions) and therapeutic compositions, along with use of the electrokinetically altered aqueous fluids in surgical contexts, including but not limited to cardiovascular related surgeries. Additionally provided are methods for measuring biological activity of electrokinetically altered fluids.
摘要:
Particular embodiments disclosed herein relate to gas-enriched fluids, methods of making the same, systems for making the same and/or methods of treatment utilizing the gas-enriched fluids for eye related conditions and/or diseases. In certain embodiments, the gas-enriched fluid is oxygen-enriched water. Certain embodiments relate to cosmetic and/or therapeutic fluids and/or methods of treatment utilizing the fluids in order to treat a cosmetic and/or therapeutic symptom related to eye conditions and/or diseases.
摘要:
Particular aspects of the present invention provide compositions and methods for modulating intracellular signal transduction, including modulation of at least one of membrane structure, membrane potential or membrane conductivity, membrane proteins or receptors, ion channels, and calcium dependant cellular messaging systems, comprising use of the inventive electrokinetically generated solutions to impart electrochemical and/or conformational changes in membranous structures (e.g., membrane and/or membrane proteins, receptors or other components) including but not limited to G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and/or G-proteins, and intracellular junctions. In particular embodiments, the electrokinetically generated solutions or compositions are gas-enriched and/or comprise other therapeutic agents. Other embodiments include particular therapeutic methods comprising administration or formulations of the therapeutic compositions, and in various combination treatments.
摘要:
Provided are compositions and methods for treating or preventing lung or respiratory disorders or conditions characterized by airflow obstruction or limitation, or a symptom thereof (e.g., asthma, rhinitis, allergic rhinitis (e.g. nose respiratory tract), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and COPD-associated conditions (e.g., bronchitis, emphysema, asthma), emphysema, pneumonia, bronchitis, influenza, SARS, tuberculosis, and whooping cough (pertussis), and the like) in a subject in need thereof by administering a therapeutic composition comprising at least one electrokinetically generated fluid (including gas-enriched electrokinetically generated fluids) as disclosed herein, the electrokinetically altered aqueous fluid suitable to alter cellular membrane structure or function sufficient to provide for modulation of intracellular signal transduction, wherein treating a lung disorder or a symptom thereof is thereby afforded. Additional aspects relate to therapeutic compositions, and combination treatment methods comprising administration of at least one electrokinetically generated fluid in combination with at least one additional therapeutic agent.
