Abstract: Nucleic acid immunisation is achieved by delivering RNA encapsulated within a PEGylated liposome. The RNA encodes an immunogen of interest. The PEG has an average molecular mass of between 1 kDa and 3 kDa. Thus the invention provides a liposome having a lipid bilayer encapsulating an aqueous core, wherein: (i) the lipid bilayer campuses at least one lipid which includes a polyethylene glycol moiety, such that polyethylene glycol is present on the liposome's exterior, wherein the average molecular mass of the polyethylene glycol is between 1 kDa and 3 kDa; and (ii) the aqueous core includes a RNA which encodes an immunogen. These liposomes are suitable for in vivo delivery of the RNA to a vertebrate cell and so they are useful as components in pharmaceutical compositions for immunising subjects against various diseases.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a weak acid drug, with the use of a bicarbonate salt to achieve a high incorporation of the drug into the liposome and a better therapeutic efficacy. Also disclosed is a method for treating a respiratory disease using the pharmaceutical composition disclosed herein.
Abstract: The disclosure presented herein provides methods for producing a dispersion of nanoparticles, as for example liposomes, by a method comprising frontally colliding an organic stream with an aqueous stream at raised pressure.

Abstract: A manufacturing method of medication includes the following steps. Firstly, an effective dosage of an API is dissolved in a dissolved agent to form a first solution, wherein the API includes triamcinolone acetonide or YC-1 compound. Next, the first solution is filtered through a filter membrane at a room temperature to obtain a second solution. Then, a precipitating agent is added into the second solution to obtain a third solution, followed by continuously stirring the third solution to precipitate crystals. The third solution is further stirred under the room temperature, a low pressure to sequentially remove the dissolved agent and the precipitating agent.
