Original Article Source Never need insulin injections again! A peptide synthesized by Israeli researchers provides a radically improved weapon against Type 1 diabetes, stopping it at its source. Israeli drug maker Teva Pharmaceutical Industries and Clal Biotechnology Industries (CBI) have more than $40 million riding on an Israeli-innovated treatment for Type 1 diabetes now in [...]
February 4, 2013 in Medical research Researchers have overcome a major challenge to treating brain diseases by engineering an experimental molecular therapy that crosses the blood-brain barrier to reverse neurological lysosomal storage disease in mice. Posted online in PNAS Early Edition on Feb. 4, the study was led by scientists at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical [...]
Read Full Report Abstract Osteoarthritis (OA) affects over 40 million people annually. We evaluated interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) gene transfer in an equine model based on IL-1ra protein therapy which inhibits inflammation through blocking IL-1. Using the self-complementary adeno-associated virus (scAAV)IL-1ra equine gene as a starting construct, we optimized the transgene cassette by analyzing [...]
Regenerative Cellular Therapy thanks all its supporters in the medical and governing arenas. We encourage others to come visit our newly completed clinic and see our results firsthand. Below is a new photo in front of our new RCT Clinic during our recent visit from Senator Claudia Pavlovich Arellano in Rocky Point. Accompanying us was [...]
By Gary Hu American Peptide Company With the strong growth in biologics, large molecules, and bio-pharmaceutical therapeutics in recent years, the pharmaceutical and biotech industries are increasingly turning toward peptides and proteins in the search for drug discovery targets. While both proteins and peptides possess numerous properties that offer significant therapeutic potential, there are fundamental [...]
News: Just released by the University of South Carolina. By LESLIE H. LANG UNC-CH School of Medicine CHAPEL HILL — Injections of protein fragments prevented the development of type-I diabetes in a strain of mice prone to the disease, according to scientists at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The peptide injections also [...]
Apigenin inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis through targeting the trinity of CK2, Cdc37 and Hsp90. 2011 BioMed Research – Abstract – Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a B-cell malignancy that is largely incurable and is characterized by the accumulation of malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow. Apigenin, a common flavonoid, has been reported to [...]

The painful inflammation and debilitating joint damage characteristic of rheumatoid arthritis may be reduced or prevented with a new approach using small-molecule enzyme mimetics, according to research published in the journal Arthritis & Rheumatism. The preclinical study conducted by researchers at MetaPhore Pharmaceuticals, Inc.® and the University of Messina, Italy showed that a superoxide dismutase [...]
University of California, San Diego researchers have proven in animal studies that fibrosis in the liver can be not only stopped, but reversed. Their discovery, to be published in PLoS Online on December 26, opens the door to treating and curing conditions that lead to excessive tissue scarring such as viral hepatitis, fatty liver disease, [...]
ScienceDaily (May 26, 2011) — Researchers from Aalto University have found the mechanism of action for cancer-cell-killing peptides. This breakthrough is expected to lead to better medication, in particular better treatments for leukemia, skin cancer, and infections caused by multi-resistant bacteria. Thanks to this new knowledge, it is hoped that future medical therapies will be [...]
Wire.com – By Katie Drummond, Nov. 9, 2011 A few bovine peptide cells, a single surgery and a rigorous daily workout: They’re the three ingredients that patients will need to re-grow fresh, functional slabs of their own muscle, courtesy of Pentagon-backed science that’s already being used to rebuild parts of people. The research team behind [...]
