摘要:
This invention relates to the discovery that agents capable of inhibiting the biological action of the glucocorticoid receptor can be used in methods for treating gastroesophageal reflux disease in a subject.
摘要:
This invention generally pertains to the field of psychiatry. In particular, this invention pertains to the discovery that agents capable of inhibiting the binding of cortisol to its receptors can be used in methods for preventing antipsychotic-induced weight gain. Mifepristone, a potent specific glucocorticoid receptor antagonist, can be used in these methods. The invention also provides a kit for preventing AP-induced weight gain in a human including a glucocorticoid receptor antagonist and instructional material teaching the indications, dosage and schedule of administration of the glucocorticoid receptor antagonist.

This invention generally pertains to the field of psychiatry. In particular, this invention pertains to the discovery that agents which inhibit the binding of cortisol to its receptors can be used in methods for treating mild cognitive impairment. Mifepristone, a potent specific glucocorticoid receptor antagonist, can be used in these methods. The invention also provides a kit for treating mild cognitive impairment in a human including a glucocorticoid receptor antagonist and instructional material teaching the indications, dosage and schedule of administration of the glucocorticoid receptor antagonist.
摘要:
This invention provides for an improved method for differentially diagnosing ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome. Current practice for differentially diagnosing ectopic ACTH syndrome and Cushing's Disease measures relative ACTH concentrations from the inferior petrosal venous sinus compared to fluid obtained from a periphery venous sample. This is performed before and after administration of exogenous corticotropin releasing factor, or after administration of metyrapone. This invention uses glucocorticoid receptor antagonists to induce release of endogenous CRH which stimulates ACTH to increase in patients with ectopic ACTH syndrome but not in those with Cushing's Disease.
