  • Cargo carrying nanoparticles
    Patent number: 9616138
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are cargo carrying nanoparticles and pharmaceutical formulations thereof. The cargo carrying nanoparticles can self-assemble from cargo molecule subunits and/or targeting subunits. The cargo carrying molecules can be configured to induce macropinocytosis in a cell when a targeting moiety specifically binds a binding partner on the surface of a cell. The pharmaceutical formulations containing the cargo carrying nanoparticles disclosed herein can be administered to a patient for the treatment or prevention of cancer.

  • Elastin based growth factor delivery platform for wound healing and regeneration
    Patent number: 8940868
    Abstract: The invention is based on the discovery of a potent growth factor delivery system by creating a fusion polypeptide that includes two portions: (i) keratinocyte growth factor protein, and (ii) an elastin-like peptide. This chimera can be administered directly to a wound site, accelerating recovery.
