Abstract: The present invention relates to a family of peptides which are able to interfere in the formation of complex Munc18-Syntaxin-1 and, hence, are useful in the prevention and/or treatment of neuronal exocytosis and/or muscle contractility disorders; and to prevent, reduce and/or eliminate skin aging and/or expression signs.

Abstract: The invention relates to peptides capable of inhibiting neuronal exocytosis and to products comprising such peptides, in particular pharmaceutical and cosmetic products useful for ameliorating skin conditions, disorders and/or diseases mediated by neuronal exocytosis, such as wrinkles, excessive perspiration, pruritus, cutaneous inflammation, dermatitis, atopia, psoriasis, vascular hyperreactivity, rosacea, acne, hair growth, wound healing, calluses, warts, or sensitive skin conditions, such as ulcers and lesions on the skin.

Abstract: Peptides able to inhibit the muscarinic receptor M3 activity and to products comprising such peptides, in particular pharmaceutical and cosmetic products useful for ameliorating skin conditions mediated by the muscarinic receptor M3 activity, such as excessive perspiration, inflammation, sebum production, and cell adhesion, motility, growth, differentiation and proliferation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel methods for the design of proteins, in particular, cytokines. These methods allow the stabilisation of such cytokines, as well as modification of their selectivity/specificity for their cognate receptors. The invention also relates to various modified proteins that have been designed by the methods of the invention.
