Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods of treating liver fibrosis by administering calpain inhibitors to subjects in need thereof.

Abstract: Methods of treating neurological diseases and disorders associated with protein aggregation using calpain inhibitors are provided. Said neurological diseases associated with protein aggregation include polyglutamine expansion diseases such as Huntington's disease, Machado-Joseph disease, and spinocerebellar ataxias.

Abstract: A method is provided of triggering transfer of connection by radio with a user terminal from a macrocell base station to a femtocell base station. The method comprises: the femtocell base station sending a triggering signal to the user terminal at the carrier frequency of the macrocell, the user terminal reacting by seeking to transfer the connection to the femtocell base generator station.

Abstract: An antibody specifically binding to human thymic stromal lymphopoietin receptor (TSLPR), characterized in comprising as heavy chain variable domain CDR regions a CDR1 region of SEQ ID NO:2 or 17, a CDR2 region of SEQ ID NO:3 or 10, and CDR3 region of SEQ ID NO:4, and as light chain variable domain CDR regions a CDR1 region of SEQ ID NO:6 or 12, a CDR2 region of SEQ ID NO:7, 13 or 15, and a CDR3 region of SEQ ID NO:8. is useful for the treatment of immunological diseases.

Abstract: An antibody binding to IL-13R?1, inhibiting IL-13 bioactivity and comprising a variable heavy and a variable light chain, characterized in that the variable heavy chain amino acid sequence CDR3 of said antibody is selected from the group consisting of the heavy chain CDR3 sequences of SEQ ID NO: 1, 3, 5, 7 or 9 is useful in the treatment of asthma and allergic diseases.

Abstract: The invention relates to hyaluronic acid nanoparticles for the administration of at least one active ingredient. The inventive nanoparticles comprise hyaluronic acid in salt form a positively-charged polymer, a polyanionic salt and at least one active ingredient. The method of obtaining the aforementioned nanoparticles comprises the following steps consisting in: preparing an aqueous solution of a hyaluronic acid salt, preparing an aqueous solution of a cationic polymer, adding a polyanionic salt to the solution of the hyaluronic acid salt, and stir-mixing said solutions such as to produce the nanoparticles, the active ingredient being dissolved in one of the initial solutions or in the suspension of nanoparticles obtained in order to be absorbed on the nanoparticles. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical and cosmetic compositions comprising the above-mentioned nanoparticles.
