Abstract: In some implementations, the disclosed systems and methods a user can be at a source location (e.g., XR environment, two-dimensional webpage/browser, etc.) and input received can trigger traveling the user to a target XR environment (e.g., an immersive environment). In some implementations, the disclosed systems and methods a user can spawn a virtual portal in an origin virtual world for travel to a destination virtual world for the creating user and a group of other users having avatars near that of the creating user. In some implementations, the disclosed systems and methods a user can be at a source location (e.g., XR environment, two-dimensional webpage/browser, etc.) and input received can trigger traveling the user to a target XR environment (e.g., an immersive environment).

Abstract: A pharmaceutical dosage form includes an effective amount of L-menthol for treating a gastrointestinal disorder. The L-menthol is within a plurality of particulates having a core including crystalline L-menthol dissolved in a terpene-based essential oil. A proteinaceous coating of a continuous film of proteinaceous material is over the core.

Abstract: The invention relates to oligopyridylamide alpha-helix mimetic compounds and their use to inhibit p53 aggregation and restore its tumor suppressor function for treating diseases, e.g., cancers, associated with p53 mutations, e.g., R248W p53 mutation.

Abstract: A multiparticulate dosage form includes a plurality of individual spheroidal enteric coated particulates having (a) a diameter of 0.1 to 2.5 mm; (b) a solid core containing an effective amount of a combination of an L-menthol source and a terpene-based essential oil; (c) a continuous proteinaceous subcoating over the core; and (d) an enteric coating over the subcoating. The multiparticulate dosage form can be used to treat gastrointestinal disorders.

Abstract: A multiparticulate formulation includes a plurality of individual spheroidal enteric coated cores containing L-menthol from an at least 80% pure L-menthol source. A subcoat is beneath the enteric coat. The enteric coated cores have a diameter of not more than 3 mm. The multiparticulate formulation may be used to treat gastrointestinal disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome.

Abstract: An L-menthol-containing multiparticulate formulation includes a plurality of individual enteric coated cores containing L-menthol from an at least 80% pure L-menthol source. The enteric coated cores are effective to release at least about 35% of the L-menthol within about two hours, and at least about 80% of the L-menthol within about eight hours after being placed in an environment having a pH of 5 to 8. The L-menthol multiparticulate formulation can be used to treat gastrointestinal disorders.

Abstract: Enteric coated multiparticulate formulations that use L-menthol as an active ingredient are disclosed. In one embodiment, the multiparticulate formulation comprises a plurality of particulates having a reduced release under gastric conditions and an elevated release at neutral pH. The particulates comprise a core comprising L-menthol as an active ingredient. The L-menthol is supplied to the core as an at least 80% pure L-menthol material. An enteric coating is over the core. The enteric coating is effective to release at least about 80% of the L-menthol within about two hours of being placed in a substantially neutral pH environment. Other aspects of the invention include methods of making and methods of using the multiparticulate formulations.
