Thymosin β4 compositions
View Patent ↗A composition with a polypeptide including amino acid sequence LKKTET [SEQ ID NO:1] or a conservative variant thereof, the composition further including a carrier for application to a surface of a body.
1. A composition comprising a polypeptide comprising amino acid sequence LKKTET [SEQ ID NO:1] or a conservative variant thereof, the composition further comprising a carrier for application to a surface of human body, wherein said carrier is for application to an external surface of said body or to an internal surface of said body, the composition comprising a gel, cream, paste, lotion, spray, suspension, dispersion, salve, hydrogel or ointment, wherein said polypeptide is gelsolin, vitamin D binding protein (DBP), profilin, cofilin, depactin, DnaseI, villin, fragmin, severin, capping protein, beta- actinin, acumentin, TB4, TB4ala, TB9, TB10, TB11, TB12, TB13, TB14, or TB15 , wherein said polypeptide is at a concentration in said carrier of at least about 0.01 ng/ml, and up to about 60 micrograms per 300 microliter.
2. The composition of claim 1 wherein said carrier is a matrix.
3. The composition of claim 1 wherein said carrier is for application to an internal surface of said body.
4. The composition of claim 3 wherein said carrier is for oral or nasal administration.
5. The composition of claim 1 wherein said carrier is for administration to an external surface of said body.
6. The composition of claim 5 wherein said carrier is a topical carrier.
7. A composition comprising a polypeptide agent consisting essentially of TB4, TB4ala, TB9, TB10, TB11, TB12, TB13, TB14, or TB15, the composition further comprising a carrier for application to a surface of a human body, wherein said carrier is for application to an external surface of said body or to an internal surface of said body, the composition comprising a gel, cream, paste, lotion, spray, suspension, dispersion, salve, hydrogel or ointment, wherein said polypeptide is at a concentration in said carrier of at least about 0.01 ng/ml, and up to about 60 micrograms per 300 microliter.
8. The composition of claim 7 wherein said carrier is a matrix.
9. The composition of claim 7 wherein said carrier is for application to an internal surface of said body.
10. The composition of claim 9 wherein said carrier is for oral or nasal administration.
11. The composition of claim 10 wherein said carrier is for application to an external surface of said body.
12. The composition of claim 7 wherein said polypeptide consists essentially of TB4.
13. The composition of claim 12 wherein said carrier is for application to an external surface of said body.
