Abstract: The disclosure provides peptide products comprising a peptide covalently attached to a surfactant moiety which have improved properties, including increased duration of action and bioavailability. The peptide products are useful for treating insulin resistance, diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases, and conditions associated therewith, such as NASH and PCOS.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for generating a protective immunogenic response via intranasal administration of an immunogenic composition (e.g., vaccine)/therapeutic immunogenic composition in a mammalian subject. Certain dosing positions of the subject during the administration of immunogenic agents, such that nostrils are tilted upwards, while in a modified sitting, reclining and/or supine posture, is surprisingly correlated with the generation of a strong immunogenic response in both humans and animals.

Abstract: Therapeutic or prophylactic compositions providing an active agent, such as an antigen or a vector that contains and expresses an antigen, encapsulated in or incorporated into a biodegradable polymeric particle are provided. The compositions can also provide an active agent that is not encapsulated in or incorporated into the biodegradable polymeric particle in order to provide an initial or prime delivery of the active agent. Particles or composites providing an active agent encapsulated by a first and second polymer are also provided, wherein polymers are distributed in a gradient from a core of the composite to a surface of the composite, and configured to provide a delayed release of the active agent by a period of 7 days to 6 months. Methods of producing composites are also provided.

Abstract: The present invention shows that intranasal administration of E1/E3-defective adenovirus particles may confer rapid and broad protection against viral and bacterial pathogens in a variety of disease settings. Protective responses lasted for many weeks in a single-dose regimen in animal models. When a pathogen-derived antigen gene was inserted into the E1/E3-defective adenovirus genome, the antigen-induced protective immunity against the specific pathogen was elicited before the adenovirus-mediated protective response declined away, thus conferring rapid, prolonged, and seamless protection against pathogens. In addition to E1/E3-defective adenovirus, other bioengineered non-replicating vectors encoding pathogen-derived antigens may also be developed into a new generation of rapid and prolonged immunologic-therapeutic (RAPIT).
