Abstract: The invention provides a therapy for lysosomal storage diseases and glycogenosis by treatment with compounds that promote exocytosis, preferably lysosomal exocytosis. The treatment of cells from patients affected by different lysosomal storage disorders with exocytosis activating compounds leads to a decrease in the accumulation of toxic substrate in the lysosomes, thus allowing the treatment, prevention and relief of the symptoms of many lysosomal storage disorders.

Abstract: Compositions for the treatment of pain and/or inflammation comprising at least one peptide with the general formula (I) R1-AA-R2, its stereoisomers, mixtures thereof, and its cosmetically and pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Peptide with general formula (I), its stereoisomers, mixtures thereof, and its cosmetically and pharmaceutically acceptable salts for the treatment of pain and/or inflammation.

Abstract: The invention relates to peptides of general formula (I): R1-AA-R2??(I) which can regulate neuronal exocytosis, their stereoisomers and racemic or non-racemic mixtures thereof, and the cosmetically or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, wherein AA is a sequence of 3 to 40 adjacent amino acids contained in the amino acid sequence of the SNAP-25 protein, R1 is selected from the group consisting of H or alkyl, aryl, aralkyl or acyl group; and R2 is selected from the group consisting of amino, hydroxyl or thiol, substituted or non-substituted with aliphatic or cyclic groups, with the condition that when R1 is H or acetyl, R2 is not non-substituted amino, hydroxyl or thiol. The invention also relates to a method of obtaining such peptides, cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use to treat those conditions requiring neuronal exocytosis regulation, preferably for treating the skin.

Abstract: The invention relates to cortistatin analogues and their uses. The compounds of the invention are peptide ligands with potential application in the diagnosis, prevention or therapy of those pathologies where receptors capable of binding to cortistatin, specific or shared with other molecules such as somatostatin and/or ghrelin (GHSR), are expressed, being in addition more stable in serum than cortistatin.

Abstract: A topical ophthalmic formulation of peptides and their use for the treatment and/or local prevention of ocular diseases, preferably posterior segment eye diseases.

Abstract: Peptide derivatives, their stereoisomers, mixtures thereof and/or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, a method of obtaining them, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and the use thereof for the treatment, prevention and/or diagnosis of those conditions, disorders and/or pathologies in which the sstr1, sstr2, sstr3, sstr4 and/or sstr5 somatostatin receptors are expressed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for obtaining thymosins and/or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof by means of solid-phase synthesis on polymeric supports, which comprises the steps of linearly synthesizing the thymus-derived peptides in solid phase, incorporating at least one Thr or Ser in the sequence, in pseudoproline dipeptide form, obtaining the thymosins by treating the peptidyl resin with trifluoroacetic acid, and purifying the thymosins by RP-HPLC. The present invention also protects the isolated and/or purified compound obtained by means of said method and also the use thereof in the preparation of a medicinal product.

Abstract: A procedure for obtaining the somatostatin analog, octreotide by means of solid phase synthesis on polymer supports and by intervention of protector groups of the Fmoc/tBu type. It includes construction of the seven amino acid, Boc-D-Phe-Cys(Trt)-Phe-D-Trp-Lys(Boc)Thr(tBu)-Cys(Trt)-Cl-trityl-R linear peptide, in which R is a polymer; treatment of the resulting peptidyl-resin with acid, for detachment of the peptide from the resin; cycling the linear structure obtained by reaction with iodine before or after incorporation of the threoninol residue into the terminal carboxy end; incorporating the threoninol residue in solution upon the seven amino acid protected peptide with or without the disulfide bridge formed; and removing the protections at the N-terminus and at the side chains with a treatment with 70-95% TFA in presence of scavengers to obtain octreotide.

Abstract: A procedure for obtaining carbocalcitonin comprising the condensation of fragment 1, a docosapeptide corresponding to the carboxamide end of the carbocalcitonin sequence, conveniently protected and anchored on resin, with fragment 2 or 3, a nonapeptide corresponding to the amino end of the salmon calcitonin sequence, with a ready-formed cycle between the Asu and Ser residua, and the treatment of the complete peptide skeleton (fragment 6 or 7) with an acid to free the totally deprotected peptide from the resin.
