Abstract: Combination compositions exhibiting anti-viral activities are provided, which are based on unique combinations of polyphenol zinc ionophores. Exemplary compositions comprise combinations of flavonoid zinc ionophores selected from EGCG, quercetin and taxifolin, preferably further comprising a zinc compound and a copper compound. The compositions preferably contain additional ingredients to further enhance the anti-viral effect of the composition and/or to provide additional benefits.

Abstract: Potent compounds having combined antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-radiation and metal chelating properties are described. Short peptides having these properties, and methods and uses of such short peptides in clinical and cosmetic applications are described.

Abstract: Compositions and methods utilizing thiol-containing short peptides having the sequence Cys-Lys-Met-Cys (SEQ ID NO: 1) and optionally N- and C-terminal modifications are described, for increasing carnitine level in muscle tissues, and treating or preventing diseases or disorders affecting muscle tissue.

Abstract: Use of synthetic thiol-containing peptides as highly effective therapeutic and protective agents is described, in clinical and research applications where lifespan and/or viability and functioning of cells is compromised at least partially due to depletion of reduced glutathione, or where viability and functioning of cells can be improved by elevating reduced glutathione levels. More specifically, compositions and methods for treating blood disorders associated with glutathione dysregulation utilizing short thiol-containing peptides selected from the group consisting of Cys-Lys-Met-Cys (SEQ ID NO: 1), Cys-Met-Lys-Cys (SEQ ID NO: 2) and Cys-?-Ala-His-Cys (SEQ ID NO: 3) are described. Further described are compositions and methods for preserving biological samples using the peptides.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical compositions including combinations of protective agents selected from isosilybin B, methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), phosphatidylcholine, cysteine (Cys), seleno-cysteine (Se-Cys), ribose-cysteine (RibCys), N-acetylcysteine (NAC), N-acetylcysteine-amide (AD4), methionine (Met) and S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) for reducing and/or preventing drug-induced toxicity, such as acetaminophen-induced toxicity. The compositions may be formulated with or without acetaminophen, and accordingly may be used as safe formulations of acetaminophen with reduced risk of causing liver damage, or as an antidote for the treatment of acetaminophen overdose. Methods for treating acetaminophen intoxication.
