摘要:
A method of reducing or blocking a stress-related atopic skin disease such as exzema or urticaria in a subject comprising administering to the patient an agent that antagonizes CRH-induced activation of skin mast cells, the agent being used alone or together with a second agent that inhibits activation of skin mast cells. Such agents include compositions that reduce the production or secretion of CRH, neurotensin or somatostatin or an agent that inhibits the physiological action of CRH, neurotensin or somostatin on skin mast cells. The effects of CRH on skin mast cells can also be inhibited by histamine-3 receptor antagonists and by inhibitors of the phosphorylation of skin mast cell moesin.
摘要:
A method for treating endogenous, painful gastrointestinal condition of non-inflammatory, non-ulcerative origin, such as abdominal migraine and irritable bowel syndrome, entails administering a pharmacologically effective amount of a mast cell degranulation-blocking agent, e.g. a histamine-3 receptor agonist.
摘要:
An orally administered antihyperlipidemia composition according to the present invention includes from about 250 to about 3000 parts by weight of nicotinic acid, and from about 5 to about 50 parts by weight of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. Also, a method of treating hyperlipidemia in a hyperlipidemic having a substantially periodic physiological loss of consciousness includes the steps of forming a composition having an effective antihyperlipidemic amount of nicotinic acid and a time release sustaining amount of a swelling agent. The method also includes the step of orally administering the composition to the hyperlipidemic once per day 'nocturnally', that is in the evening or at night.

A method for treating endogenous, painful gastrointestinal conditions of non-inflammatory, non-ulcerative origin, such as abdominal migraine and irritable bowel syndrome, entails administering a pharmacologically effective amount of a mast cell degranulation-blocking agent, e.g. a naturally occurring polyamine, a heterocyclic histamine-1 receptor antagonist, a histamine-3 receptor agonist or an anti-female sex hormone.
