摘要:
Compounds of structural formula (I) as herein defined are disclosed as useful in a method for modulating the androgen receptor in a tissue selective manner in a patient in need of such modulation, as well as in a method of agonizing the androgen receptor in a patient, and in particular the method wherein the androgen receptor is antagonized in the prostate of a male patient or in the uterus of a female patient and agonized in bone and/or muscle tissue. These compounds are useful in the treatment of conditions caused by androgen deficiency or which can be ameliorated by androgen administration, including: osteoporosis, periodontal disease, bone fracture, bone damage following bone reconstructive surgery, sarcopenia, frailty, aging skin, male hypogonadism, post-menopausal symptoms in women, atherosclerosis, hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipidemia, aplastic anemia and other hematopoietic disorders, pancreatic cancer, renal cancer, arthritis and joint repair, alone or in combination with other active agents. In addition, these compounds are useful as pharmaceutical composition ingredients alone and in combination with other active agents.
摘要:
Substituted 5-aryl-2,4-thiazolidinediones and oxazolidinediones are potent agonists of PPAR, and are therefore useful in the treatment, control or prevention of diabetes, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia (including hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia), atherosclerosis, obesity, vascular restenosis, and other PPAR &agr; and/or &ggr; mediated diseases, disorders and conditions.
摘要:
Novel N-carboxyalkylpeptidyl compounds of formula I are found to be useful inhibitors of matrix metalloendoproteinase-mediated diseases including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, septic arthritis, tumor invasion in certain cancers, periodontal disease, corneal ulceration, proteinuria, dystrophobic epidermolysis bullosa, and coronary thrombosis associated with atherosclerotic plaque rupture. The matrix metalloendoproteinases are a family of zinc-containing proteinases including but not limited to stromelysin, collagenase, and gelatinase, that are capable of degrading the major components of articular cartilage and basement membranes. The inhibitors claimed herein may also be useful in preventing the pathological sequelae following a traumatic injury that could lead to a permanent disability. These compounds may also have utility as a means for birth control by preventing ovulation or implantation. ##STR1##
摘要:
Compounds of formula (I), wherein: R.sup.1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and methyl; R.sup.2 is selected from the group consisting of methyl and ethyl; R.sup.3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and methyl; and the C1-C2 carbon-carbon bond may be a single or double bond. Such compounds are useful in the treatment of pathologic conditions that benefit from blockade of isozymes of 5.alpha.-reductase. ##STR1##
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a specifically substituted tetrahydrofuran of the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein R.sup.4 is an alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl or alkylsulfonyl containing group and at least one of the substituents at positions 3, 4 or 5 contains a heterocyclic, heteroaryl or substituted phenylthio moiety.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a specifically substituted tetrahydrofuran of the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein R.sup.4 is an alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl or alkylsulfonyl containing group, Y is an alkyl or substituted alkyl group and R.sup.6 is an alkoxy or a substituted alkoxy or alkyl group.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a specifically substituted tetrahydrofuran of the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein Ar is a pyridyl, a dimethoxy-pyridyl or dimethoxy-pyrazyl group, R.sup.4 is an alkylthio, alkylsulfinyl or alkylsulfonyl containing group and at least one of the substituents at positions 3,4 or 5 contains a heterocyclic, heteroaryl or substituted phenylthio group.
