摘要:
An effective liquid preparation achieves high bioavailability (BA) of physiologically active peptides or proteins, including ghrelins, that are administered as drugs. Also provided is a method for improving the BA of physiologically active peptides or proteins, including ghrelins, that are subcutaneously injected in aqueous solutions. The liquid preparation contains: a physiologically active peptide or protein, such as ghrelins, as an active ingredient; an acid solution including one or a combination of two or more selected form the group consisting of acetic acid, lactic acid, phosphoric acid, glycine, citric acid, hydrochloric acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, benzoic acid and salts thereof; an alcohol; and a polar organic liquid including one or a combination of two or more selected from the group consisting of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide and methylparaben.
摘要:
Preventive or therapeutic agents for diseases accompanied with vascular function disorders related to deposition of lipid on vessel walls, containing specific chymase inhibitors as the active ingredient. Quinazoline derivatives of general formula (1) are usable as the specific chymase inhibitor. In said formula, A is an aromatic ring.
摘要:
Remedies containing as the active ingredient compounds represented by general formula (I) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, whereby diseases induced by the hypofunction of NOS can be efficaciously prevented or ameliorated, wherein R?1 and R2¿ represent each hydrogen, or R?1 and R2¿ form together a single bond; and R3 represents -CH(OH)CH(OH)CH¿3?, CH(OCOCH3)CH(OCOCH3)CH3, -CH3, -CH2OH or phenyl when R?1 and R2¿ are hydrogen, or R3 represents -COCH(OH)CH¿3? when R?1 and R2¿ form together a single bond.
摘要:
A novel growth method is provided for pluripotent stem cells such as ES cells. The method of the invention is a pluripotent stem cell growing method and gene transfer method in which pluripotent stem cells are cultured under conditions that maintain their undifferentiated state and pluripotency, the method being characterized by using a liquid medium and a culturing vessel having immobilized or coated on a substrate solid phase surface a molecule which is adhesive to the pluripotent stem cells in a fixed concentration, to grow the pluripotent stem cells in a dispersed state while maintaining their undifferentiated state and pluripotency, without using feeder cells, or to transfer and express a gene therein.
摘要:
A substituted benzoic acid derivative which is represented by the following formula (I) and has an NF-kappaB inhibiting action (in the formula, R 3 , R 4 and R 5 each independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon(s) or an alkoxy group having 1 to 6 carbon(s); R 9 and R 10 each independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon(s) or an acyl group having 2 to 11 carbons); R 2 represents an optionally-substituted aromatic hydrocarbon group or an optionally-substituted heterocyclic group; and X represents a carboxyl group which may be esterified or amidated)
摘要:
The proliferation of cardiomyocytes is induced by expressing cyclin and CDK in the cardiomyocytes, and by suppressing the function or action of a Cip/Kip family protein or inhibiting the production of a Cip/Kip family protein. Among the Cip/Kip family proteins, it is preferable to suppress the function of p27 Kip1 or inhibiting the production thereof. As a recombinant vector to be used therefor, there is provided a vector comprising: (1) a cyclin gene; (2) a cyclin-dependent kinase gene; and (3) one or a plurality selected from the group consisting of a gene encoding a factor that inhibits the function or action of a Cip/Kip family protein and a nucleic acid sequence that inhibits the production of Cip/Kip family protein.
摘要:
A quinazoline derivative having formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which has a chymase inhibitory activity and suppresses the exacerbation of vascular permeability induced by chymase and useful as a medicament, and a pharmaceutical composition containing the same as an essential ingredient.
摘要:
A pharmaceutical composition for nasal administration exhibits an improved bioavailability of a biologically active polypeptide, the active ingredient of the pharmaceutical composition. Specifically, the composition is prepared by uniformly dispersing and embedding a biologically active acidic polypeptide having an isoelectric point of 7 or lower on the surfaces of a polyvalent metal compound carrier with the help of an additive capable of dispersing and embedding the polypeptide on the surfaces of the carrier. The polyvalent metal compound carrier is a metal compound with a valent of 2 or higher that is either insoluble or little soluble in water, examples being aluminum compounds, calcium compounds, magnesium compounds, silicone compounds, iron compounds, and zinc compounds.
摘要:
Preventive or therapeutic drugs, which inhibit the progression of eosinophilia-related diseases while preventing the progression of various complications, and are so safe by virtue of their being free from adverse effects as to bring about enhancement in the quality of daily life of a patient. Specifically, preventive or therapeutic drugs for eosinophilia-related diseases containing chymase inhibitors as the active ingredient, wherein the chymase inhibitors are quinazoline derivatives of the general formula (I) or pharmacologically acceptable salts thereof: (I)
