  • Publication number: 20200179331
    Abstract: The disclosure provides new anti-cancer compositions that include a Her2 peptide that targets the Her2 receptor and comprises amino acid sequence GSGKCCYSL (SEQ ID NO:1); and a covalently-linked cytotoxic agent including artemisinin (Art) or a derivative thereof linked to the peptide. Biological assays have demonstrated that the Art-Her2 peptide conjugates described herein show excellent selective cytotoxic activity towards Her2-positive cancers, such as colon cancer, compared to normal colon cells.

  • Publication number: 20190224100
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for providing full spectrum photo protection to skin, which includes protection from infrared (IR) radiation and/or visible light in addition to protection from UV radiation. The compositions typically include: (a) baicalin; (b) one or more antioxidants selected from the group consisting of VENUCEANE (Thermus thermophiles ferment), polydatin, hesperetin, mango leaf extract, vitamin C; (c) optionally, one or more solubilizers; and (d) a cosmetically acceptable carrier. The compositions are unique in that the combination of (a), (b), optional (c), and (d) alone, provide at least full spectrum protection from ultraviolet radiation (UV), visible light, and infrared radiation (IR). The composition can additionally, optionally, include one or more UV filters to further enhance protection from UV radiation.
