摘要:
Compounds represented by general formula (I), pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof, or hydrates of the same; drugs containing these compounds; medicinal compositions containing these compounds together with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers; and 2-amino-2-(2-(4-(1-hydroxy-5-phenylpentyl)phenyl)ethyl)propane-1,3-diol or 2-amino-2-(2-(4-formylphenyl)ethyl)-propane-1,3-diol optionally protected at the amino and/or hydroxy group or salts thereof, each useful as an intermediate in synthesizing the above compounds. In said formula, R?1, R2, R3 and R4¿ represent each hydrogen or acyl. Because of having little toxicity, high safety and excellent immunosuppressive effects, these compounds are useful as preventives or depressants for rejection reactions in organ or bone marrow transplantations and preventives or remedies for various autoimmune diseases, various allergic diseases, etc.
摘要:
A method of producing a protein having free cysteine with the use of a serum-free medium, characterized in that the protein is produced in the activated state a method of producing a protein by culturing in a serum-free medium in accordance with the above method a method of activating a protein having free cysteine which has been produced in the inactivated state and a protein obtained by any of the above methods. This protein shows physicochemical or biological properties comparable to a protein obtained by using a serum medium.
摘要:
It is intended to provide drugs for ameliorating postcibal hyperglycemia, drugs for inhibiting an increase in blood glucose level and compositions for preventing or treating diabetics each containing a pharmacologically acceptable anion exchange resin typified by colestimide. Thus, it becomes possible to provide drugs clearly exhibiting an effect of inhibiting an increase in postcibal blood glucose level.
摘要:
A substance inhibiting the binding of hepatitis C virus E2/NS1 protein to cells with potential infection with hepatitis C virus, cells with the expression of CD81 or CD81. Thus, novel drugs having antiviral effects (inhibition of the infection with HCV, etc.) can be provided.
摘要:
The present invention aims at providing a pharmaceutical composition for the prophylaxis or treatment, irrespective of the kind of virus, of viral myocarditis or-viral diseases induced by viral myocarditis, by the treatment or prevention of the onset of cytotoxicity in various organs, and a method of the prophylaxis or treatment. The present invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition for the prophylaxis or treatment of viral myocarditis or viral diseases induced by viral myocarditis, which contains 2-amino-2-(2-(4-octylphenyl)ethyl)propane-1,3-diol or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient. The present invention further relates to a method for the prophylaxis or treatment of viral myocarditis or viral diseases induced by viral myocarditis, which includes administering an effective amount of the aforementioned compound or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof.
摘要:
Contaminant viruses can be efficiently removed almost without losing the activity of protein by subjecting a plasma protein composition having a high risk of viral contamination to a treatment with a porous membrane having a pore size greater than a single-particle size of the virus, particularly by subjecting a plasma protein composition to a fractionation treatment by precipitation, before the porous membrane treatment. Particularly, a fibrinogen composition substantially free of non-enveloped viruses, Parvovirus among others, can be provided. By the application of the present invention, a safe plasma protein preparation free of viruses can be conveniently provided.
摘要:
MAG expression promoters containing compounds represented by general formula (I), optically active isomers thereof or pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the same, wherein each symbol is as defined in the description. As an example of the compounds represented by the general formula (I), 4-[α-hydroxy-5-(1-imidazoyl)-2-methylbenzyl]-3,5-dimethylbenzoic acid may be cited. These MAG expression promoters are useful as preventives and/or remedies for diseases of mammals including humans mainly presenting myelin hypoplasia and, in its turn, myelin sheath hypoplasia or myelin sheath destruction
摘要:
Excellent remedies for hepatitis C which contain as the active ingredients a 3'-deoxy-3'-fluorouridine derivative and a 1-(3'-deoxy-3'-fluoro- beta -L-ribofuranosyl)uracil derivative and show little side effects.
摘要:
A preventive and/or remedy for diseases attributable to arteriosclerotic activity, such as ischemic heart diseases and acute coronary arterial syndrome, which contains as an active ingredient a compound represented by the following general formula (I): (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound. It is a novel preventive and/or remedy for diseases attributable to arteriosclerotic activity and is more potent than known drugs. (In the formula, A represents a thiazolidinedione ring, etc.; -X- represents -O- or -S-; =Y- represents =N- or =CR5-; R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 each independently represents hydrogen, etc.; n is an integer of 0 to 3; and the dotted line indicates that the linkage may be a double bond.)
摘要:
It is found out that the culture supernatant of COS cells wherein PSEC56 gene is expressed has a neurite outgrowth effect. It is further clarified that this activity of the culture supernatant is brought about by NGF contained therein. Thus, it is found out that PSEC56 is usable as a neurotrophic factor expression-inducing agent and that the induction system of the NGF is applicable to the development of drugs for neural diseases.
