Abstract:
The present invention comprises methods and compositions for the reduction of oxalate in humans, animals and plants. For example, the invention provides methods and compositions for the delivery of one or more oxalate-reducing pharmaceutical compositions to the intestinal tracts of persons and animals. The methods and compositions can be used in treating and preventing oxalate-related conditions. A composition of the invention comprises an oral delivery vehicle comprising an oxalate degrading bacteria, one or more cryopreserving agents and one or more excipients. A composition of the invention is enteric coated and has a suitable shelf-life and acceptable properties to avoid negative impact from gastric fluid when it is orally administered.
Abstract:
The present invention comprises methods and compositions for the reduction of oxalate in humans, and methods for the purification and isolation of recombinant oxalate reducing enzyme proteins. The invention provides methods and compositions for the delivery of oxalate-reducing enzymes in particle compositions. The compositions of the present invention are suitable in methods of treatment or prevention of oxalate-related conditions.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a secretagogue compound derived from oxalate degrading bacteria, for use in the treatment of an oxalate related disease and/or oxalate related imbalance in a subject, wherein the administration of the secretagogue results in a reduction of urinary oxalate and/or plasma oxalate in the subject. The invention further relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising such a secretagogue compound, a method for treating a subject suffering from an oxalate related disease, and to a method for preparing a secretagogue.
