Abstract: Apicomplexan parasites or red blood cells infected with apicomplexan parasites are administered to an animal in combination with a delayed death agent that initially allows parasite replication but subsequently kills the apicomplexan parasites. This allows the elicitation of an immune response by the animal while preventing the parasites producing a serious infection of the animal. The apicomplexan parasites may be malaria or babesia parasites. The delayed death agent may be a tetracycline class antibiotic, a macrolide antibiotic or a lincosamide antibiotic.

Abstract: A system for providing ventricular assistance to a heart of a subject, the system including a balloon configured to be inserted into a ventricle of the heart, wherein the balloon is configured to differentially inflate to thereby urge blood towards a semilunar valve of the ventricle; a fluid conduit in fluid communication with the balloon; a pumping mechanism attached to the fluid conduit; and, a controller configured to control the pumping mechanism to thereby selectively supply fluid into the balloon so as to inflate the balloon at least partially in accordance with the cardiac cycle.

Abstract: In one aspect the invention relates to a method of treatment selected from the group consisting of: (a) treating a symptom such as pain in a subject identified or diagnosed as having Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS); (b) treating a symptom such as pain in a subject having dysfunctional TRPM3 ion channel activity; (c) restoring NK cell function in a subject having dysfunctional TRPM3 ion channel activity; and (d) restoring calcium homeostasis in a subject having dysfunctional TRPM3 ion channel activity. The method comprises the step of administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of at least one therapeutic compound selected from the group consisting of: (i) an opioid receptor antagonist; (ii) an opioid antagonist; and (iii) a therapeutic compound that restores TRPM3 ion channel activity. In some embodiments the therapeutic compound is naltrexone hydrochloride.

Abstract: A modified p145 peptide having enhanced mucosal immunogenicity for use in eliciting a mucosal immune response to group A Streptococcal bacteria in a mammal such as a human. Intramuscular administration of the modified p145 5 peptide may be particularly efficacious. An S2 peptide or variant may be co-administered with the modified p145 peptide to enhance the immune response.

Abstract: This invention relates to the use of zinc(II) salts in combination with a zinc ionophore to resensitize a previously resistant pathogenic bacteria to an antibiotic. Methods of restoring the sensitivity of a resistant pathogenic bacterium to an antibiotic comprising administering a zinc ionophore in combination with a zinc(II) salt and methods of treating a bacterial infection comprising administering a zinc ionophore in combination with a zinc (II) salt concurrently and/or sequentially with administration of a therapeutically effective amount of an antibiotic is also described.

Abstract: A silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diode comprises a layer of N-type SiC and a layer of P-type SiC in contact with the layer of N-type SiC creating a P-N junction. An anode is in contact with both the layer of N-type SiC and the layer of P-type SiC creating Schottky contacts between the anode and both the layer of N-type SiC and the layer of P-type SiC. An edge of the layer of P-type SiC is electrically active and comprises a tapered negative charge density at the P-N junction, which can be achieved by a tapered or sloping edge the layer of P-type SiC.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of treating alphavirus infections, particularly in humans, in which pentosan polysulfate is administered to an infected subject. Whilst not effecting the viral load in a subject, the pentosan polysulfate acts to reduce inflammation in tissues, such as the muscles, and in the joints of a subject. In addition, cartilage damage in the joints may be reduced. The reduction in inflammation and/or cartilage damage acts to reduce the severe pain experienced by subjects suffering from alphavirus infections, such as Ross River virus, chikungunya virus and Barmah Forest virus.
