  • Patent number: 11633356
    Abstract: Formulations are described, containing silibinin or other active ingredients incorporated in lipid nanoparticle systems of the SLN and NLC type, and based on calixarenes, possibly mucoadhesive, or in micellar and nanoparticle systems based on amphiphilic inulin copolymers for use in the treatment of neurodegenerative ocular diseases. The versatility of the calixarene compound is also described, capable of charging and releasing active ingredients characterized by low water solubility, easy chemical and enzymatic degradation, low bioavailability, either of natural origin or not, to be used in the treatment of ocular diseases.

  • Publication number: 20190233896
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for estimating the risk factor (HR) for the onset of macular degeneration in a subject, which method comprises the evaluation of a first series of genetic parameters comprising at least the genetic loci R1210C in CFH, variants in COL8A1 and RAD51 B, and the evaluation of a second series of environmental, individual and/or clinical parameters. This method is characterized in that said risk factor (HR) is calculated by assigning a greater importance to said evaluation of the first series of genetic parameters with respect to said evaluation of the second series of environmental, individual and/or clinical parameters. The method of the present invention thus allows to estimate the genetic risk of AMD more accurately than the methods known in the art.
