Compositions and methods of the invention can be used to treat cancer, viral infection, immune disorders (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis), pulmonary fibrosis, or any other clinical condition associated with abnormal expression (e.g., overexpression and/or upregulation) of CXCR4. Compounds of the invention can also be used in stem cell therapeutics.
Abstract: Nutritionally acceptable non-lipid compositions and methods are presented that modulate lipid metabolism, and especially increase LPC concentrations. Consequently, the compositions and methods presented herein will facilitate DHA transport to neural and retinal tissues as well as LA availability for cardiolipin synthesis.

Abstract: Compositions and methods for treating a subject are provided. The compositions may include a short interfering RNA (siRNA) molecule comprising a sense RNA strand and an anti-sense RNA strand, the sense and anti-sense RNA strands forming an RNA duplex. The method may include administering a medical composition including an agent to the subject, wherein the agent is configured to reduce uridine 5?-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) levels in the subject. The sense RNA strand or the anti-sense RNA strand may be 15 to 25 nucleotides in length. The sense RNA strand and the anti-sense RNA strand may be 70%-100% complementary.

Abstract: The present invention derives from the unexpected finding that necroptosis is a novel biomarker and target for therapy in patients with liver failure such as acute liver failure (ALF) and acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). RIPK1, MLKL or RIPK3 can be detected and quantified in serum or plasma, and used as a biomarker for outcome in ACLF and other diseases involving aberrant necroptosis. By antagonising RIPK1, MLKL or RIPK3 many of the unwanted consequences or symptoms of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) may be reduced. The present invention utilises these findings to identify and provide antagonists of RIPK1, MLKL and RIPK3 that may be used in the treatment or prevention of ACLF. The present invention utilises these findings to identify and provide antagonists of RIPK1, MLKL or RIPK3 that may be used in the treatment or prevention of aberrant necroptosis in the kidney, brain, liver or other organ of the body.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are compositions comprising an NSAID such as meloxicam and/or rizatriptan in combination with a cyclodextrin and/or a carbonate or a bicarbonate. These compositions may be orally administered, for example, to improve the bioavailability or pharmacokinetics of the NSAID for the treatment of pain such as migraine, arthritis, and other conditions. Also disclosed herein are methods of treating pain, such as migraine, comprising administering meloxicam and rizatriptan to a human being suffering from pain, such as migraine. For migraine, these methods may be particularly useful when the meloxicam and rizatriptan are administered while the human being is suffering from an acute attack of migraine pain or migraine aura. In some embodiments, the combination of meloxicam and rizatriptan may be administered in a manner that results in a Tmax of meloxicam of 3 hours or less.
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of treating a fungal infection comprising administering topically, to a subject in need thereof, an anti-fungal effective amount of roflumilast. Preferably, topically administered roflumilast is used to treat fungal infections, fungal growth of and/or hypersensitivity to the fungi Malassezia spp. Patients may also be suffering from seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, dupilumab facial redness, Tinea versicolor, Pityriasis versicolor, Tinea circinata, Tinea pedis, Tinea unguium, Tinea manus, Tinea cruris, Tinea corporis, Tinea faciei, Tinea capitis, and/or Tinea incognito. Topically administered roflumilast is a quick and effective antifungal agent and presents a viable alternative to current antifungal treatments.
