Zusammenfassung:Compositions and methods are provided that include a biologically active agent and a permeabilizing agent effective to enhance mucosal delivery of the biologically active agent in a mammalian subject, in which the permeabilizing peptide is PN159, PN159 analogues, conjugates of PN159, conjugates of PN159 analogues, or complexes thereof. The permeabilizing agent reversibly enhances mucosal epithelial paracellular transport, typically by modulating epithelial junctional structure and/or physiology at a mucosal epithelial surface in the subject.
