摘要:
Dibenzosuberanyl piperazine derivatives represented by the following formula (I): wherein R represents an aliphatic hydrocarbon group, which may contain one or more heteroatom-containing substituent groups and may preferably contain 2 to 30 carbon atoms, and physiologically acceptable salts thereof; and medicinal compositions containing these dibenzosuberanyl piperazine derivatives and/or physiologically acceptable salts thereof. These compounds show effectiveness in allowing resistance-acquired causes of diseases to restore sensitivity to drug, that is, a resistance overcoming effect.
摘要:
A method of screening a novel BAFF suppressor or inhibitor. More specifically speaking, a method which comprises adding a combination of TPA with ionomycin and/or an anti-CD3 antibody to a cultured human cell to thereby induce the production of BAFF by the cell; a method of screening a substance capable of suppressing the expression or activity of BAFF which comprises adding a test substance to a BAFF-production system prepared by adding a combination of TPA with ionomycin and/or an anti-CD3 antibody to a cultured human cell and measuring the expression amount and/or the activity of BAFF in the BAFF-production system; and a BAFF production inducer for a BAFF-producing cell which contains a combination of TPA with ionomycin and/or an anti-CD3 antibody.
