20160038565 | Methods of Mitigating Side Effects of Radiation Exposure and Chemotherapy - Compositions and methods for treating toxicity associated with exposure to radiation and side effects of treatments for hyperproliferative disorders are provided. Typically the compositions are administered in an effective amount reduce one or more adverse side effects. The side effects to be treated include, but are not limited to reduced appetite and weight loss. The methods typically include administering to a subject a composition including a protein transduction domain, a target signal, and a transcription factor A—mitochondrial polypeptide in an amount effective to inhibit, reduce or alleviate weight loss or to increase or induce appetite. | 02-11-2016 |
20160082070 | METHODS OF TREATMENT USING WATER-SOLUBLE TRYPTOPHAN-CONTAINING PEPTIDES OBTAINED BY THE HYDROLYSIS OF HENS EGGS LYSOZYME - The present invention relates to a process to produce a composition comprising water-soluble peptides and having a Trp/LNAA ratio of more than 0.15, which comprises hydrolyzing lysozyme, preferably hen eggs lysozyme, to prepare a hydrolysate having a DH of between 5 and 45. | 03-24-2016 |
20160082088 | COLLAGEN POWDER - Methods are disclosed for preparing a collagen powder, for example which may be used for the preparation of a satiety inducing food product. The collagen powder is suitable as a food additive in food products for the reduction of hunger and as a possible treatment of obesity and its pathophysiological consequenceos, such as metabolic syndrome. | 03-24-2016 |
20160089392 | Whey Protein and Resistant Starch Compositions to Reduce Body Mass Index - A nutritional composition comprised of whey protein (WP) and resistant starch (RS) designed to reduce body fat, body fat distribution and as a result lower Body Mass Index (BMI) in humans. | 03-31-2016 |
20160114000 | CO-AGONISTS OF THE GLUCAGON AND GLP-1 RECEPTORS - Described are peptide analogs of glucagon, which have been modified to be resistant to cleavage and inactivation by dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) and to increase in vivo half-life of the peptide analog while enabling the peptide analog to have relatively balanced agonist activity at the glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor and the glucagon (GCG) receptor, and the use of such GLP-1 receptor/GCG receptor co-agonists for treatment of metabolic disorders such as diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and obesity. | 04-28-2016 |
20160136124 | ADMINISTRATION OF A FOOD COMPOSITION PRODUCT - Method for orally administrating a subject a food composition product, referred to as “Preload Meal,” before administering a main meal to the subject. The food composition product includes nutrients that stimulate the release of incretins in the subject prior to administration of the main meal, increasing satiety, lowering total energy intake from both the food composition product and the main meal, and contributing to a biological control of a post prandial blood sugar level and a post prandial insulin level in the subject. | 05-19-2016 |
