Abstract: The present development is a transfection reagent prepared by ionic interaction of colostrum powder-derived exosomes and a polycation. The resulting exosome-polycation matrix, or EPM, is entrapped with biologic materials, such as siRNA, mRNA, antisense oligo or plasmid DNA or a plasmid DNA expression construct.

Abstract: A composition is provided that comprises a therapeutic agent encapsulated by a milk-derived microvesicle. The compositions can include therapeutic agents such as phytochemical agents or chemotherapeutic agents, while the milk-derived microvesicle can be derived from raw milk or colostrum. Further provided are methods for isolating a microvesicle that includes the steps of obtaining an amount of milk, and subjecting the milk to a series of sequential centrifugations configured to yield greater than about 300 mg of microvesicle protein per 100 ml of milk. Methods of modifying an immune response and treating a cancer in which a milk-derived microvesicle composition is administered are also provided.

Abstract: This invention describes a simple, rapid and cost-effective method to isolate bulk quantities of relatively pure and enriched anthocyanidins and other plant bioactives. The method is based on the principle of solubility. Some bioactives (anthocyanidins) were extracted in an aqueous solvent, transferred to a non-aqueous solvent and finally insolubilized by adding a miscible solvent in which the bioactive was insoluble. Thus, anthocyanidins were isolated from anthocyanin-enriched berries or non-enriched, dark-colored fruits, vegetables and grains by extraction of anthocyanins, acid hydrolysis, and extraction of the resulting anthocyanidins, followed by their insolubilization (precipitation). Some bioactives (hydrophobic and hydrophilic) were extracted in a solvent with high solubility and then directly insolubilized by adding a miscible solvent in which the bioactive was insoluble, for example, withaferin A from enriched Withania somnifera and punicalagins from enriched punica extract.

Abstract: Chromium-three cation in combination with Phyllanthus emblica extract and Shilajit is useful in treating symptoms associated with osteoarthritis including reduction of inflammation and pain in a mammal, particularly a human or an animal. The combination shows significant reduction in overall pain levels and other pain measures in a canine model, and in human studies. Thus the composition is an anti-arthritic formulation that decreases pain and inflammation.
