The therapeutic value of many growth factors is often hindered by the narrow therapeutic index and sustained concentrations required for efficacy. Controlled release approaches provide a valuable tool to achieve these goals; however, growth factor stability must be maintained. Repifermin 1 is a trun

## Abstract In the present study, a muscle contractile protein complex, actomyosin, has been successfully encapsulated into gellanโchitosan polyion complex (PIC) capsules. The recovery of the myosinโATPase activity is approximately 50% and the Mg^2+^โATPase activity is stimulated by the presence of
Novel macromolecular therapeutics such as peptides, proteins, and DNA are advancing rapidly toward the clinic. Because of typically low oral bioavailability, macromolecule delivery requires invasive methods such as frequently repeated injections. Parenteral depots including biodegradable polymer mic
The retrocerebral complex of locusts consists of the corpus cardiacum, the corpora allata, and the nerves that connect these glands with the central nervous system. Both corpus cardiacum and corpora allata are neuroendocrine organs and consist of a glandular part, which synthesizes adipokinetic horm
