  • Conditioning irradiated tissue for increasing vascularity
    Patent number: 11331288
    Abstract: Methods of increasing perfusion and vascularity in irradiated tissue and of increasing retention of fat cells in a fat graft in irradiated tissue by applying an effective amount of DFO to the irradiated tissue at a treatment site. The DFO may be administered transdermally by applying a transdermal delivery device to a tissue surface at the treatment site in multiple discrete doses. The transdermal delivery system comprises DFO encapsulated in reverse micelles.

  • Antibodies to royalactin and uses thereof
    Patent number: 11180536
    Abstract: Antibodies specific for royalactin (RA) can be used in methods for purifying royalactin, including native royalactin. These methods produce can produce compositions enriched for native royalactin. The purified royalactin can be used to produce cosmetic products that include native royalactin. An isolated nucleic acid encodes a monoclonal antibody that binds specifically to royalactin.
