Abstract:
A medicament for suppressing development of tolerance to analgesic effect induced by administration of a narcotic analgesic such as morphine, which comprises an antagonist of the vasopressin receptor 1b as an active ingredient.
Abstract:
A data processing method for an estimation of compound-protein interaction using both chemical substance information, such as a chemical property of the compound, and biological information, such as sequence information of genes to rationally and efficiently screen compounds. First space representing space coordinates of a first chemical substance group and second space representing space coordinates of a second chemical substance group are defined, and the first chemical substance group is characterized by a first characteristic amount and the second chemical substance group is characterized by a second characteristic amount, and map transformation of the coordinates of the first space and the coordinates of the second space results in the solution so as to increase the correlation between the first space and the second space using a multivariable analysis technique or a machine learning method.
Abstract:
A prostate cancer progression inhibitor comprises 4-(4-cyano-2-{[2-(4-fluoro-1-naphthyl)propanoyl]amino}phenyl)butyric acid, a salt thereof, a solvate thereof, or a prodrug thereof. 4-(4-Cyano-2-{[2-(4-fluoro-1-naphthyl)propanoyl]amino}phenyl)butyric acid is useful as a prostate cancer progression inhibitor because this butyric acid has, for example, a growth inhibiting effect and a hormone responsiveness recovering effect on prostate cancer that has acquired hormone resistance.

Abstract:
A novel agent for therapy and/or prevention of kidney diseases as well as a diagnostic method (detection method) of kidney diseases is disclosed. The agent for therapy and/or prevention of kidney diseases comprises as an effective ingredient a substance which inhibits casein kinase 2. The diagnostic method of kidney diseases according to the present invention comprises measuring activity or content of casein kinase 2, or measuring expression amount of casein kinase 2 gene in a sample separated from body.
Abstract:
The differential display method was used to search for a gene whose expression level in eosinophils collected from patients with atopic dermatitis differs in the exacerbation stage and in the remission stage. As a result, gene “2090-05” showing a significant increase in expression in eosinophils of patients in the remission stage was isolated. This gene is usable in testing for an allergic disease and screening for a candidate compound for a therapeutic agent therefor an allergic disease.
