    摘要: A method for isolating candidate peptides for the treatment of a disease or disorder with a causative agent with SOD activity, the method comprising the steps of: (i) contacting a plurality of candidate peptides with a first agent with SOD activity and being causative of the disease or disorder and isolating the bound peptides; and (ii) contacting the peptides isolated form step (i) with a second agent structurally related to the first agent but without SOD activity and isolating the unbound peptides; wherein the peptides isolated from step (ii) are candidate peptides for treatment of the disease. Peptides identified using the screening method may be used to treat AD, type II diabetes, Scrapie and Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies such as Creutzfeldt Jacob disease (CJD), variant CJD, Gerstmann Strausler Schinkler syndrome and Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE).

    摘要: I have discovered that trace metals such as copper, zinc, iron, and manganese that are necessary for the proper functioning of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and other deactivators of active-oxygen molecules (which cause aging of skin and other skin disorders), can be delivered from the topical compositions. This is achieved by the preparation of copper and other trace metal complexes with phosphorylated nucleosides, such as nucleotides, and phosphorylated monosaccharides, such as phosphorylated glycosides which act as small molecular weight (SMW) transporter molecules. These trace metal complexes of nucleotides and glycosides can be prepared by an in-situ method in water, water-miscible organic solvent, or a mixture of water and water-miscible organic solvent from commonly available ingredients in concentrations that are desirable and can be accurately controlled. I have additionally discovered compositions to achieve the transport of copper from the surface layers of skin into the deeper layers of skin utilizing SMW transporter molecules; and the intra-cellular storage of copper ions in the cell, for example in a bound form with glutathione; and the intra-cellular transport of copper from glutathione to SOD apoprotein by metallochaperones; and the supply of energetic molecules, such as ATP, ADP, or phosphorylated saccharides for SOD metallochaperones to perform their intra-cellular metal transfer function. These cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions are useful for antiaging and antiviral benefits.

    摘要: The present invention relates to methods of treating prophylactically or therapeutically bacteremia, sepsis, septic shock or related conditions such as ARDS by administering orally a composition of lactoferrin alone or in combination with standard therapies or metal chelators to prevent or treat the consequences of bacterially induced systemic inflammatory response syndrome. In particular it is claimed that the therapeutic use of recombinant human lactoferrin alone or in combination with metal chelators or other therapeutic interventions decreases the mortality due to bacteremia, sepsis, septic shock or related conditions such as ARDS.

    摘要: This invention pertains to the discovery that elevated level of free iron causal in the onset and/or progression of diseases characterized by neural degeneration (e.g., Parkinson's Disease). It was also discovered that lowering free iron levels can inhibit (e.g. reduce or eliminate) the onset and/or progression of one or more symptoms of such diseases. Thus, in one embodiment this invention provides a method of inhibiting neural degeneration in a mammal. The method involves reducing free iron levels in a neural tissue of said animal in an amount sufficient to inhibit neural degeneration in said neural tissue.
