  • Publication number: 20090098205
    Abstract: The present invention provides a pH sensitive nanoparticulate delivery system for the administration of peptide hormones and drugs. In particular it provides a pH sensitive nanoparticulate for oral insulin administration. The nanoparticles developed by this process are fatty acid nanoparticles and a polymer is used as a stabilizer and also to incorporate pH sensitivity so that these particles shrink in the gastric acidic pH thereby protecting the incorporated insulin. These particles being also hydrophobic in nature and by virtue of their small size get absorbed through the intestinal cell wall and Peyer's patches. These nanoparticles are novel and unique in the sense that polymer content is only 0.03-0.06 g/g product and the polymer is hydrophilic in nature.

  • Patent number: 7390661
    Abstract: A bidirectional module for activation of gene expression and regulation of transcription in both directions is disclosed. The bidirectional module comprises multiple cis regulatory DNA sequence elements, strategically arranged to give a ‘Transcription Activating Module’ that achieves high level expression from a ‘Transcription Initiation Module’. The latter functions like a minimal promoter. The former activates transcription simultaneously in both the directions from the latter and also responds to several transcription inducing, external stimuli in both the directions. Since it is an artificially designed bidirectional transcription module, it has no equivalent DNA sequence in plant genome. This reduces the chances of the genes from being silenced by homology based mechanisms. A bidirectional promoter module as this, can therefore be used to develop efficient vectors for genetic engineering in plants.
