摘要:
The present invention is directed to the use of the peptide compound Tyr-Val-Lys-Arg-Val-Lys-OH as a therapeutic agent for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of cancer, autoimmune diseases, fibrotic diseases, inflammatory diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, infectious diseases, lung diseases, heart and vascular diseases and metabolic diseases. Moreover the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions preferably in form of a lyophilisate or liquid buffer solution or artificial mother milk formulation or mother milk substitute containing the peptide Tyr-Val-Lys-Arg-Val-Lys-OH optionally together with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, cryoprotectant, lyoprotectant, excipient and/or diluent.
摘要:
The invention relates generally to compositions, conjugates, and methods comprising a KGF agonist and a gastrin compound. The compositions can be used in the treatment and/or prevention of conditions for which either a KGF agonist or a gastrin compound have been demonstrated to have a therapeutic effect, including but not limited to diabetes, hypertension, chronic heart failure, fluid retentive states, metabolic syndrome and related diseases and disorders, and obesity.
摘要:
The invention relates to an agent for calming the sensation of pain, in particular in chronic inflammatory disorders, by the expression of endogenic, neuroendocrine peptides at the inflammation site. The invention relates in particular to the expression of POMC or CRF from locally injected DNA expression constructs, preferably covalently peptide-modified expression constructs.
摘要:
The invention provides isolated nucleic acids, vectors, transformed host cells, analogs, functional fragments, and fusion proteins, related to beta-lipotropin. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising beta-lipotropin or fragments and/or analogs thereof, and methods for treating diabetes and complications associated therewith by administration of an effective amount of beta-lipotropin.
摘要:
A composition, and methods of enhancing the analgesic potency of morphine and other clinically used bimodally-acting opioid agonists or detoxifying and treating an opiate addict comprising the co-administration of a bimodally-acting opioid agonist which activates inhibitory opioid receptor-mediated functions of neurons in the nociceptive (pain) pathways of the nervous system and an excitatory opioid receptor antagonist which selectively inactivates excitatory opioid agonists.
摘要:
This invention relates to a method of selectively enhancing the analgesic potency of morphine and other clinically used bimodally-acting opioid agonists and simultaneously attenuating development of physical dependence, tolerance and other undesirable side effects caused by the chronic administration of said bimodally-acting opioid agonists comprising the co-administration of a bimodally-acting opioid agonist which activates both inhibitory and excitatory opioid receptor-mediated functions of neurons in the nociceptive (pain) pathways of the nervous system and an opioid receptor antagonist which selectively inactivates excitatory opioid receptor-mediated side effects. This invention also relates to a method of using excitatory opioid receptor antagonists alone to block the undesirable excitatory side effects of endogenous bimodally-acting opioid agonists which may be markedly elevated during chronic pain. This invention further relates to a method of long-term treatment of previously detoxified opiate, cocaine and alcohol addicts utilizing said excitatory opioid receptor antagonists, either alone or in combination with low-dose methadone, to prevent protracted physical dependence, and to compositions comprising an excitatory opioid receptor antagonist of the invention and a bimodally-acting opioid agonist.
