摘要:
This invention relates to a medicine for humans, and particularly to a pharmaceutical combination comprising Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) and Growth Hormone secretagogue hexapeptide (GHRP) for use in preventing tissue damage due to blood flow suppression by enhancing tissue repair following ischemic damage. The aforementioned combination may be applied as a single pharmaceutical composition. Alternatively, an individual may also receive both EGF and GHRP in a separate manner but within a single therapeutic regime to enhance cellular survival when organs are subjected to blood flow deprivation for a critical period of time. This combination attenuates reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and its associated cytotoxicity. It is also useful in promoting cellular survival when tissue or organs are exposed to prolonged ischemic periods. The combination is useful as a prophylactic agent in those subjects prone to multiple organ failure (MOF) such as burn victims, multiple trauma patients, hypoxic neonates, acute respiratory distress syndrome patients, and necrotizing enterocolitis patients.

The invention is related with the chemical synthesis for increase the growth rate in marketable fish and crustaceanThe aim of this invention is supply GHRP-6 to induce directly or indirectly the release of growthing hormone or like, to produce the increase of circulating growthing hormone level in the blood of the fishes. The peptide is stable, soluble and biologically active.The peptide is able to stimulate growth, improve the larvae quality, and increase the defense against pathogen agents, the dry weight, the protein concentration and the RNA in muscle of fish and crustaceans.

The present invention relates to the use of the pituitary adenylate cyclase activating peptide (PACAP) as a molecular adjuvant for vaccines. Among other applications, these vaccines may be used in the protection against infectious agents such as viruses, bacteria and ectoparasites affecting mammals, birds and aquatic organisms. The PACAP, combined with a particular antigen, demonstrates its effectiveness as adjuvant increasing the host immune response against that antigen. This type of response can be observed when the vaccine compositions or combinations that include PACAP are administered orally, by injection, or by immersion baths, in case of aquatic organisms.
摘要:
The present invention is related to the use of variants of the Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase-Activating Polypeptide (PACAP) to stimulate the growth and to improve the immunological system of aquatic organisms. The variants of the peptide were provided by immersion, injection or as a food additive.
摘要:
The present invention relates to antimicrobial peptides, isolated and purified from extracts of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) gills. Such peptides may be produced by chemical synthesis or by expression in heterologous systems, such as bacteria and yeasts, by conventional molecular biology techniques. These peptides show antimicrobial activity against various organisms, including Gram positive bacteria, Gram negative bacteria, fungi and viruses. The invention also includes compositions to for controlling pathogens comprising these antimicrobial peptides. The use of such peptides in vaccine preparations, as molecular adjuvants, is also part of the invention.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of a peptide of P0 ribosomal protein in the manufacture of a vaccine composition to control of ectoparasite infestations and therefore the transmission of their associated pathogens. This peptide is located between 267 and 301 amino acids of the P0 protein, and can be obtained by recombinant means or by chemical synthesis. This peptide can be fused to a carrier protein or peptide, or an immuno-carrier and be included in an oily formulation. The formulations comprising the peptide vaccine confer protection against ticks and ectoparasites known as “sea lice” without generating autoimmunity in the host organism. Among these ticks may be mentioned species as Rhipicephalus microplus, Rhipicephalus sanguineus and Ixodes scapularis, and between sea lice are those of the Caligus and Lepeophtheirus genera.
