Abstract:
Compounds of the general structure D-L-B-(AA), for example (A), that are useful for treating Mac-1 or LFA-1-mediated disorders such as inflammatory disorders, allergies, and autoimmune diseases are provided.
Abstract:
Human receptor selective atrial natriuretic factor variants containing various substitutions, especially G16R, show equal potency and binding affinity for the human A-receptor but have decreased affinity for the human clearance or C-receptor. These ANF variants have natriuretic, diuretic and vasorelaxant activity but have increased metabolic stability, making them suitable for treating congestive heart failure, acute kidney failure and renal hypertension.
Abstract:
Benzodiazepine derivatives represented by the structure below are disclosed that act as potent inhibitors of ras farnesyl:protein transferase. Pharmaceutical compositions containing these benzodiazepines are provided for treatment of diseases foe which inhibition of the ras farnesyl:protein transferase as indicated. ##STR1##

Abstract:
This invention provides 4-amino-1-benzylpiperidine and related compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof which are useful as muscarinic receptor antagonists. This invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds; processes and intermediates useful for preparing such compounds; and methods for treating disease conditions mediated by muscarinic receptors, such as overactive bladder, irritable bowel syndrome, asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, using such compounds.
Abstract:
A compound of Formula I, Formula II, Formula III, or Formula IV: or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate, and/or ester thereof, therapeutic compositions containing such compounds, and therapeutic methods that include the administration of such compounds.
Abstract:
This invention provides 4-amino-1-(pyridylmethyl)piperidine and related compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof which are useful as muscarinic receptor antagonists. This invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds; processes and intermediates useful for preparing such compounds; and methods for treating disease conditions mediated by muscarinic receptors, such as overactive bladder, irritable bowel syndrome and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, using such compounds.
Abstract:
The invention relates to novel compounds having formula (I) wherein Cy, X, Y, L and R1-6 are as defined herein. The compounds bind CD11/CD18 adhesion receptors such as Lymphocyte Function-associated Antigen-1 (LFA-1) and are therefore useful for treating disorders mediated by LFA-1 such as inflammation and autoimmune diseases.
Abstract:
This invention relates to urea compounds that are muscarinic receptor antagonists and agonists, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and methods of preparing these compounds.
