PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cartilage disorder preventive and/or therapeutic agent with the general formula (A) being an active body, allowing infusion into an articular cavity as a disease affected part in order to improve cartilage disorders with expressing no adverse effect and staying in the articular cavity to continuously exhibit drug efficacy.SOLUTION: A compound represented by the general formula (I) (where all symbols are as described in the specification), a solvate thereof or a cyclodextrin inclusion complex thereof expresses no adverse effects of a circulatory system even if such an amount to exhibit cartilage regeneration action is administered, so it is very useful as a safe and effective cartilage disorder preventive and/or therapeutic agent. In addition, a pharmaceutical composition containing a compound represented by the general formula (I), a solvate thereof, or a cyclodextrin inclusion complex thereof can be infused without incising an affected part so the burden of a patient can be mitigated, and thus it is very useful.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a novel compound containing a basic group, which is useful as a medicine, and to provide a use thereof.SOLUTION: The compound is represented by formula (I), (wherein J represents a crosslinked cyclic group which may be substituted by a basic group-containing group and further which may have a substituent, and other symbols are not described). This compound, a salt thereof, a solvent thereof or a prodrug thereof has an antagonistic activity against CXCR4 and is therefore useful as: a preventive and/or therapeutic agent for CXCR4-mediated diseases, for example, inflammatory and immune diseases (for example, rheumatoid arthritis, arthritis, retinopathy, pulmonary fibrosis, rejection of transplanted organ, etc.), allergic diseases, infections (for example, human immunodeficiency virus infection, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, etc.), psychoneurotic diseases, cerebral diseases, cardiovascular disease, metabolic diseases, and cancerous diseases (for example, cancer, cancer metastasis, etc.); or an agent for regeneration therapy and the like.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a preparation for an injection containing a sivelestat sodium salt and a hydrate thereof, improving solubility in a solution at a low temperature, and/or allowing maintenance of a clear solution state without being accompanied with a change in formulation even under preservation over a long period of time when formulated with a transfusion.SOLUTION: The preparation for the injection containing sivelestat sodium salt and a hydrate thereof, and a hydrogencarbonate is a preparation having improved solubility in the solution at the low temperature, and further a preparation maintaining the clear solution state without being accompanied with the change in formulation even after the lapse of a long period of time under formulation with the transfusion. The preparation is an extremely readily handleable preparation in medical practices.
摘要:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a substance which has specificity and activity and effectivity the same as or more than antibodies as a substance pharmaceutically controlling the functions of a cell surface functional molecule, and which dose not require high grade production technology and equipments for converting the substance to a medicine.SOLUTION: There are provide multimers of an extracellular region of cell surface functional molecules especially extracellular region tetramers of PD-1 or PD-L1. Further, there are provided uses of the tetramers as a preventive and/or therapeutic agent for cancer or cancer metastasis, and immunodeficiency, infectious disease or the like, and uses as an examination or diagnostic agent or a research reagent of the diseases of the PD-1 or PD-L1.
摘要:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a percutaneous absorption type preparation which comprises 4-(2-methyl-1-imidazolyl)-2,2-diphenylbutylamide as the active ingredient and a backbone for transdermal system, and satisfies at lest one of the following conditions (1) and (2).SOLUTION: The phermaceutical preparation enables absorption of 4-(2-methyl-1-imidazolyl)-2.2-dephenylbutylamide, which has a low ability to be absorbed from the skin, from the skin into the body continuously and efficiently. (1) The active ingredient content in one preparation or one time administration preparation is from about 0.1 mg to about 10 mg, (2) the size is from about 1 cmto about 300 cm.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a drug for treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.SOLUTION: Provided are a prevention and/or a parenteral drug containing (2R)-2-propyl octanic acid or its salt for treatment of a neurodegenerative disease, a nervous disorder, and a disease requiring a nerve regeneration. This therapy is characterized by dosing parenterabout 100 mg or more of the drug per each administration, and is useful for the prevention and/or treatment of neurodegenerative diseases including cerebral infarction, since it has an improvement effect on the nervous disorder and an increase suppressing effect on S 100 βin cerebral infarction cases. Moreover, the drug is useful also as a nerve regeneration agent after transplantaton.
摘要:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a therapeutic and/or preventing agent for a disease due to vascular constriction or vasodilation comprising an EDG-5 modulator EDG (Endothelia differentiation gene)-5 modulator; and also to provide a new EDG-5 antagonist.SOLUTION: A therapeutic and/or preventing agent for a disease due to vascular constriction or vasodilation comprises a EDG-5 modulator. Since EDG-5 modulator specifically binds EDG-5 and shows antagonistic or agonistic action, EDG-5 antagonist is useful for treating and/or preventing for a disease due to vascular constriction, for example, cerebrovascular spasmodic disorder after subarachnoid hemorrhage or stroke, cardiovasucular spasmodic disorder, hypertension, renal disease, cardiac infarction, cardiac angina, arrhythmia, facilitation of the portal blood pressure involved in liver cirrhosis, varicosity involved in liver cirrhosis and the like; or EDG-5 agonist is useful for treating and/or preventing for a disease due to vasodilation of blood vessels, for example, chronic headache (such as migraine, tension-type headache, mixed-type headache thereof, or migrainous neuralgia), haemorrhoid, congestive disorder and the like.
