The invention discloses identification and therapeutic use of matrix metalloproteinase oligopeptides, SEQ ID NO: wherein the matrix metalloproteinase oligopeptide is at least one of SEQ ID NO: 7, 11, 12, 18 and 19 and combination thereof. These oligopeptides are bound to antibodies to create an immune response in the subject mammal against the matrix metalloproteinases of various diseases. The instance method is a means of therapeutic intervention against the disease spread created by the matrix metalloproteinases. Further use of these oligopeptide-antibody responses can be extended to any and all diseases that use the matrix metalloproteinases to aid in their pathogenicity.

Metalloproteinase-9 oligopeptides and their therapeutic use

The invention discloses identification and therapeutic use of matrix metalloproteinase oligopeptides and peptidomimetics. The oligopeptides are used for making antibodies. The antibodies are used for diagnostic and treatment purposes of various diseases. In particular, the diseases may involve the mechanism of degradation of extracellular matrix by MMP's during cell proliferation cycle. Suppression of MMP activity seems to arrest tumor growth during cancer progression. MMP oligopeptides were used as vaccines to treat mice having murine melanoma B16FO induced tumor. There was a significant drop in tumor weight and size for the group of mice that were immunized with MMP oligopeptide.

Metalloproteinase oligopeptides and their therapeutic use

A composition of L-ascorbic acid derivatives is described comprising L-ascorbic acid and lysine or lysine moieties, wherein L-ascorbic acid is covalently bound to the lysine or lysine moieties. The composition so described is used to prevent the degradation of extracellular matrix, stabilize connective tissue, is used to as an antioxident, and is used for treating damage to skin comprising applying the topical composition to the skin.

Ascorbic acid compounds, methods of synthesis and application use thereof

A nutrient pharmaceutical formulation composition useful for treating cancer comprising ascorbic acid, L-lysine, L-proline and at least one polyphenol compound selected from the group consisting of epigallocatechin gallate, epicatechin gallate, epigallocatechin, epicatechin, catechin and the use of the composition in treating cancer and other tumors are provided.

Nutrient pharmaceutical formulation comprising polyphenols and use in treatment of cancer

A composition of L-ascorbic acid derivatives is described comprising L-ascorbic acid and lysine or lysine moieties, wherein L-ascorbic acid is covalently bound to the lysine or lysine moieties. The composition so described is used to prevent the degradation of extracellular matrix, stabilize connective tissue, is used to as an antioxidant, and is used for treating damage to skin comprising applying the topical composition to the skin.
