摘要:
A pharmaceutical composition includes, as an active ingredient, a compound according to formula 1436 as shown in FIG. 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient. Various pharmaceutical products may be produced including this pharmaceutical composition. Such pharmaceutical products may be used for the treatment of obesity or diabetes. Methods for using the pharmaceutical compositions also are described. In these methods, various diseases are treated or other body functions are activated or inhibited by administering an effective amount of the pharmaceutical composition. For example, diabetes and obesity may be treated by administering an effective amount of the pharmaceutical compositions. Weight gain, and growth factor production can be inhibited by administering an effective amount of these pharmaceutical compositions. Appetite can be suppressed by administering an effective amount of the pharmaceutical compositions, and a diuretic effect can be produced.

摘要:
A method for treating a tumor includes a first treatment procedure using a conventional cancer treatment technique, and a second treatment procedure which includes administering an effective amount of squalamine. Synergistically effective amounts are preferred. The first treatment procedure may be a treatment with one or more conventional cytotoxic chemical compounds. As examples, the cytotoxic chemical compound may be a nitrosourea (such as BCNU), cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, 5-fluorouracil, paclitaxel and its derivatives, cisplatin or other platinum containing cancer treating agents. Alternatively, the first treatment may be a treatment with one or more conventional anti-hormonal agents. As examples, the anti-hormonal agents may be a LHRH (luteinizing hormone releasing hormone) agonist or an anti-androgen such as flutamide, biclutamide, nilutamide, and luprolide. These conventional cancer treatments compounds and the squalamine may be administered by any suitable route. The first treatment procedure may take place prior to the second treatment procedure, after the second treatment procedure, or the two treatment procedures may take place simultaneously. As an alternative, the first treatment procedure may be a conventional radiation treatment regimen. As a further alternative the first treatment procedure may be a combination of treatment with one or more conventional cytotoxic chemical compounds and a conventional radiation treatment regimen.

A method for treating a tumor includes a first treatment procedure using a conventional cancer treatment technique, and a second treatment procedure which includes administering an effective amount of squalamine. The first treatment procedure may be a treatment with one or more conventional cytotoxic chemical compounds. As examples, the cytotoxic chemical compound may be a nitrosourea (such as BCNU), cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, 5-fluorouracil, paclitaxel and its derivatives, cisplatin or other platinum containing cancer treating agents. The cytotoxic chemical compound and the squalamine may be administered by any suitable route. The first treatment procedure may take place prior to the second treatment procedure, after the second treatment procedure, or the two treatment procedures may take place simultaneously. In one example, the first treatment procedure (e.g., a one time intravenous dosage of BCNU) is completed before the second treatment procedure with squalamine begins. As an alternative, the first treatment procedure may be a conventional radiation treatment regimen.
摘要:
Aminosterol compounds are described that are useful as inhibitors of the sodium/proton exchanger (NHE). Methods of using such aminosterols compounds are also disclosed, including those employing compounds that are inhibitors of a spectrum of NHEs as well as those using compounds that are inhibitors of only one specific NHE. Advantageous screening techniques and assays for evaluating a compound's therapeutic activity are also disclosed.
摘要:
Devices, systems, and methods according to one such aspect of the invention comprises (i) a sensing device that is attached (or otherwise coupled) to a skateboard and that measures a physical characteristic of it and/or of its environment, (ii) an audio output device, and (iii) a digital data processor that is communicatively coupled to the audio output device and the sensor. The digital data processor drives the audio output device to effect one or more selected sounds (e.g., to prompt the user to perform a selected action). The digital data processor, further, and monitors the sensing device to identify user actions in response to those sounds and drives the audio output device to effect still further sounds based on those actions.
摘要:
An interactive animation environment. The interactive animation environment includes at least one user-controlled object, and the animation method for providing this environment includes determining a position of the user-controlled object, defining a plurality of regions about the position, detecting a user input to move the position of the user-controlled object, associating the detected user input to move the position of the user-controlled object with a region in the direction of movement, and providing an animation of the user-controlled object associated with the mapped region. A system and controller for implementing the method is also disclosed. A computer program and computer program product for implementing the invention is further disclosed.
摘要:
Systems and methods for social and other sporting activities. A system according to one such aspect of the invention comprises a sensing device that is attached to an object, such as a skateboard (by way of non-limiting example), for measuring characteristics thereof. It communicates those characteristics wirelessly, e.g., via bluetooth, to a mobile device, such as a cell phone, personal digital assistant, or the like (by way of non-limiting example). That device can log and/or display those characteristics, graphically, for study or analysis by the operator (e.g., the skateboard enthusiast) or others.
摘要:
A distributed simulation system is composed of simulator stations linked over a network that each renders real-time video imagery for its user from scene data stored in its data storage. The simulation stations are each connected with a physics farm that manages the virtual objects in the shared virtual environment based on their physical attribute data using physics engines, including an engine at each simulation station. The physics engines of the physics farm are assigned virtual objects so as to reduce the effects of latency, to ensure fair fight requirements of the system, and, where the simulation is of a vehicle, to accurately model the ownship of the user at the station. A synchronizer system is also provided that allows for action of simulated entities relying on localized closed loop controls to cause the entities to meet specific goal points at specified system time points.
