  • Publication number: 20130237476
    Abstract: The application provides synthetic peptide conjugates capable of targeting and causing ablation of adipose tissue in mammal comprising at least one targeting peptide and at least one therapeutic peptide. The synthetic peptide conjugates are envisaged to have decreased physiological toxicity and/or enhanced in situ cytotoxicity compared to the peptide CKGGRAKDC-GG-D(KLAKLAKKLAKLAK) (SEQ ID NO: 2).

  • Patent number: 8076295
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are novel peptide amphiphile molecules and compositions discovered to possess improved solubility in aqueous buffers which, in turn, facilitates purification required for pharmaceutical applications, particularly for in vivo administration to human patients. In addition, gels of such peptide amphiphile compositions are shown herein to possess unexpectedly superior gelation kinetics and rheological properties, including an increased mechanical stiffness, which better mimics the mechanical properties of natural central nervous system tissues.
