Abstract: Methods and compositions described herein use polysaccharide nanoparticles (or polysaccharide-coated nano -particles) to retain and deliver unaltered therapeutic agents to sites of disease. The polysaccharide nanoparticles are non-covalently associated with the unaltered therapeutic agent. The polysaccharide is able to retain cargo (drugs, diagnostics, etc.) without chemical modification of the agent. The nanoparticle maintains its association with the agent through non-covalent interactions but releases its agent in response to changes in the microenvironment, e.g., at the site of cancer cells or cancer tissue.

Abstract: Polymeric bile acid (pBA) nanoparticles and tolerogenic formulation containing polymeric bile acid nanoparticles for oral delivery and induction of antigen-specific tolerance in a subject may include immunosuppressants and/or disease-specific antigen. Oral delivery results in local organ accumulation as well as systemic delivery of the nanoparticles. Early intervention with the nanoparticles induces antigen-specific tolerance and prevents development of autoimmune disorders. Treatment with the nanoparticles results in long-term antigen-specific immune tolerance, even after cessation of treatment, in autoimmune diseases.

Abstract: Niclosamide is an effective therapeutic medicament for the treatment of endometriosis. Niclosamide treatment can reduce the size of endometriotic lesions and reduce cell proliferation in the lesions. Niclosamide treatment can result in the inhibition of proteins and genes associated with inflammatory signaling, including those associated with NF?B and STAT3 activation, but without altering the expression of steroid hormone receptors. Niclosamide can be effective in reducing the growth of endometriotic lesions in female mice without impairing their ability to become pregnant and without negative effect on gestation and offspring. The invention herein is useful in treating symptoms associated with endometriosis, such as reducing the growth of lesions of the endometrium, without disrupting normal reproductive function in females. The invention also relates to derivatives of niclosamide having improved solubility and enhanced efficacy.
