  • SCAFFOLD PROTEINS AND THERAPEUTIC NANOCONJUGATES BASED ON NIDOGEN
    Publication number: 20230068834
    Abstract: The present invention relates to proteins suitable for being used as scaffolds to which a peptide of interest is bound, or which are comprised within a conjugate to which an agent of interest is attached. It also relates to said conjugates suitable for the selective delivery of their conjugated agents of interest to specific cell and tissue types, wherein said agent 5 can be a therapeutic agent or an imaging agent. It also relates to nanoparticles comprising such conjugates and the therapeutic uses thereof.

  • PROTEIN NANO- OR MICROPARTICLES AS ARTIFICIAL INCLUSION BODIES
    Publication number: 20220202733
    Abstract: The invention relates to protein particles comprising a cluster of one or more types of assembled self-contained protein, wherein the particle has a size from 50 nm to 50 micrometers; is in form of a pellet in aqueous media; is mechanically stable; and it release a particular percentage by weight of the self-contained protein within a predetermined period of time, and any other compound contained in the particle. Particular methods for obtaining the particles are also disclosed, said methods comprising the addition of salts to allow precipitation of proteins. Particular protein particles comprising lipids associated with the assembly of self-contained proteins are also disclosed. The invention also relates to several uses of the particle, in particular medical uses and to pharmaceutical and cosmetic compositions comprising the particles.
