Title:
REGENERATION OF MAMMALIAN TISSUES USING SYNTHETIC IMMODULINS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/192042
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Methods and compositions involving synthetic immodulin peptides and helper molecules. The peptides exhibit new and surprising biological activities, such as co-stimulation of macrophage and myogenic cell differentiation markers. Methods are provided by which peptide is contacted with one or more myeloid precursor cell populations, thereby increasing the abundance of CD169+, CCL22+, Clec4A, Clec9a+, and Clec12a+ monocyte lineages which play important roles in cross presentation, post-apoptotic clearance, autoimmunity, and programmatic tissue regeneration, notably in contexts of tissue stress, insult and degeneration. The disclosed methods and compositions enable concurrent regeneration of diverse cellular elements in tissue where collaborating myeloid and non-myeloid lineages are located together in a living tissue following the contacting steps. Furthermore, the peptides of the invention can be delivered with inherently specific in vivo targeting, achieved through complexation to holotransferrin and/or size-specific glycosaminoglycans (e.g. high-molecular- weight hyaluronan) so as to discriminate between target environments in vivo or ex vivo.
