摘要:
The present invention relates to liposomes for drug delivery, wherein a liposome includes molecules of at least one desired drug distributed within an aqueous phase in the interior of the liposome and wherein the liposome further includes molecules of the same or of another drug attached to either or both sides of the liposomal membrane. More specifically, the invention relates to liposomes, wherein at least a part of the molecules of a desired drug bear a functional group that is reactive with a functional group present in at least one lipid fraction, and wherein the drug is covalently linked to the membrane lipids by chemical bonding, e.g. by ester bonding of a hydroxyl group of a lipid molecule and an acidic residue of the drug. In a preferred embodiment, the desired drug is a glycoprotein such as erythropoietin. The invention further relates to a method of manufacture of said liposomes and to pharmaceutical compositions containing them.
摘要:
The invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition made from an active ingredient included in liposomes for topical application, whereby the liposomes have an aqueous medium in the interior thereof and contain at least one active ingredient therein which exerts a direct or indirect relaxing effect on smooth musculature and is preferably selected from the group of prostaglandins, adenylate cyclases, cAMP, AMP, ATP, NO-synthetases, nitrogen monoxide (NO), NO compounds, nitrates, guanylate cyclases, cGMP, GMP, GTP and phosphodiesterases, in particular, Sildenafil. The invention further relates to a method for production of said composition, optionally, in sterile form and the use of the liposomes supporting the active ingredient in various galenic forms for external application in the genital region, for prophylaxis and/or therapy of sexual disorders in men or women and/or for increase of sexual sensitivity.

The invention relates to a device for producing lipid vesicles, which is equipped with a line (1) for transporting a polar liquid phase, with a line (2) for transporting an organic liquid phase containing lipids, with a collecting receptacle (7) for accommodating produced lipid vesicles, and with means for conveying the liquid phases through lines (1) and (2). At at least one location, the outer side of line (1) forms a common contact surface with line (2) inside of which a common opening (3) is provided that permits the flow of liquid and joins the inside of line (2) to the inside of line (1). Lines (1) and (2) do not contain agitating or dispersing aids in the area of the opening (3). The invention also relates to a method for the careful production of lipid vesicles, wherein the lipid phase is sprayed under pressure perpendicular to the direction of flow of the polar phase and into the same, whereupon lipid vesicles having a narrow size distribution form spontaneously and without the action of mechanical agitating or dispersing aids.
摘要:
Superoxide dismutase (SOD), preferably rhSOD, is used in liposomes, optionally mixed with hyaluronic acid and/or at least one physiologically acceptable carrier, and other optional additives, to prepare a pharmaceutical composition useful against increased concentrations of superoxide radicals and/or the damage caused thereby. The compositions are administered topically, preferably as gels or ointments, to prevent and/or heal human fibrotic tissue degeneration diseases, in particular induratio penis plastica (Peyronie's Disease).

Superoxide dismutase (SOD), preferably rhSOD, is used in liposomes, optionally mixed with hyaluronic acid and/or at least one physiologically acceptable carrier, and other optional additives, to prepare a pharmaceutical composition useful against increased concentrations of superoxide radicals and/or the damage caused thereby. These compositions can be administered topically, orally and/or parenterally to prevent and/or heal burns, skin lesions due to radiation, inflammations, rheumatic and arthritic diseases, bronchitis, ARDS, emphysema, allergic oedemas and other inflammatory process, possibly trigged by microbial infections. They may also be used in the cosmetic treatment of furuncles, acne and the like. They may also be used to improve the preservability of organic, preferably biogenic, materials, in particular organ transplants and liquids with organic components, as well as foodstuffs.
摘要:
The present invention relates to neutralizing anti-HIV-1 antibodies, particularly to mAb 4E10-IgG1, which has an HIV-1 neutralizing potency comparable to the one of mAb 2F5 and 2G12. 4E10-IgG1 binds to a novel conserved epitope (NWFDIT) C-terminal of the ELDKWA epitope recognized by 2F5.1 appears that both epitopes are cryptic epitopes within a region that may be accessible in a virus-cell fusion intermediate state only. 4E10-IgG1 potently neutralizes tissue culture adapted strains but also primary isolates of different clades, including A, B, C, D, and E, inclusing viruses that were found to be resistant to 2F5. None of the tested isolates was resistant to both anti-gp41-antibodies. The invention therefore also relates to peptides containing the 4E10 epitope and to compositions made thereof, as well as to anti-idiotypic antibodies that are reactive with the paratope of 4E10-IgG1, to compositions containing an antiidiotypic antibody optionally in combination with a peptide containing the 4E10 epitope, and to anti-HIV-1 compositions comprising 4E10-IgG1, optionally in combination with another neutralizing antibody such as 2F5 and/or 2G12.
摘要:
The invention relates to Ab2-type anti-idiotypic antibodies and fragments thereof which mimic HVI-1 epitopes that are otherwise cryptic to the immune system and which antibodies or fragments thereof are directed against potently neutralizing anti-HIV-1 antibodies. The invention further relates to a hybridoma cell line 3H6 expressing the anti-idiotypic antibody and to pharmaceutical compositions containing the antibody or fragment thereof. The invention also relates to HIV-1 neutralizing Ab3-type antibodies elicited upon administration of the Ab2-type anti-idiotypic antibody or fragment thereof and to pharmaceutical compositions containing them. The invention also relates to the use of the present antibodies or fragments thereof as screening tools or as diagnostic or therapeutic agents.

This invention refers to peptides binding to antibodies that show neutralizing activity against different strains and clinical isolates of HIV-1 and that inhibit the fusion of cells caused by HIV-1. These peptides are applied with an adjuvant, as recombinant fusion proteins, chemically coupled to carrier molecules, as recombinant chimeric viruses or as recombinant antibodies.
