摘要:
N,N'-disubstituted guanidines exhibiting a high binding affinity to phencyclidine (PCP) receptors are disclosed. These N,N'-disubstituted guanidine derivatives act as non-competitive inhibitors or glutamate-induced responses generated via the NMDA receptor by acting as blockers for the ion channel of the NMDA receptor-ion channel complex. These compounds thus exert a neuroprotective property and are useful in the therapeutic treatment of neuronal loss in hypoxia, brain or spinal cord ischemia, brain or spinal cord trauma, as well as being useful for the treatment of epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Huntington's disease, Down's Syndrome, Korsakoff's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders.

This invention relates to relates to methods for producing gossypol acetic acid co-crystals and (−)-gossypol acetic acid co-crystals. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising gossypol acetic acid co-crystals and (−)-gossypol acetic acid co-crystals and the use of gossypol acetic acid co-crystals and (−)-gossypol acetic acid co-crystals for inducing apoptosis in cells and for sensitizing cells to the induction of apoptotic cell death.
摘要:
Disclosed are amplifier molecules: various organic compounds having branched structures terminating with amine groups to which pharmacologically active groups can be chemically attached. A number of MRI contrast-enhancing agents were synthesized, each comprising plural active groups, such as stable nitroxides and complexes of trivalent metal cations. Such syntheses were successfully performed using a number of amplifiers having different branched structures, demonstrating the general utility of the pertinent chemistry in the synthesis of amplifiers having any of a wide variety of pharmacologically active groups. Amplifiers were also synthesized having linkers terminating with chemically reactive groups such as isothiocyanates, which render the amplifier bifunctional: attachable to polymers, biomacromolecules, or other biocompatible entity possessing multiple reactive sites such as terminal amines. Via such chemistry, the amplifiers are attachable to monoclonal antibodies for concentration of pharmacologically active groups at a desired site in the body.

Pharmaceutical compositions comprising a therapeutically effective amount of Mannich base N-oxides, or a N-oxide rearrangement product, pharmaceutically acceptable salt or prodrug thereof, are also disclosed. Further, disclosed are methods of using the compounds, alone or in combination with one or more other active agents or treatments.
摘要:
Methods for covalently modifying surfaces of various substrates are disclosed, along with various substrates having surfaces modified by such methods. Candidate surfaces include various polymeric, siliceous, metallic, allotrophic forms of carbon, and semiconductor surfaces. The surfaces are exposed to a reagent, having molecules each comprising a nitrenogenic group and a functionalizing group, in the presence of energized charged particles such as electrons and ions, photons, or heat, which transform the nitrenogenic reagent to a nitrene intermediate. The nitrene covalently reacts with any of various chemical groups present on the substrate surface, thereby effecting nitrene addition of the functionalizing groups to the substrate surface. The functionalizing groups can then participate in downstream chemistry whereby any of a large variety of functional groups, including biological molecules, can be covalently bonded to the surface, thereby dramatically altering the chemical behavior of the surface. Such functionalizations of the surface can be done in a single reactive step or in multiple reactive steps.
摘要:
A molecularly imprinted substrate and sensors employing the imprinted substrate for detecting the presence or absence of analytes are described. One embodiment of the invention comprises first forming a solution comprising a solvent and (a) a polymeric material capable of undergoing an addition reaction with a nitrene, (b) a crosslinking agent (c) a functionalizing monomer and (d) an imprinting molecule. A silicon wafer is spincoated with the solution. The solvent is evaporated to form a film on the silicon wafer. The film is exposed to an energy source to crosslink the substrate, and the imprinting molecule is then extracted from the film. The invention can be used to detect an analyte by forming films which are then exposed to a reaction energy to form a crosslinked substrate. The imprinting molecules are extracted from the crosslinked substrate. The film is exposed to one or more of the imprinting molecules for a period of time sufficient to couple the imprinting molecules to the film. The presence of the molecules is then detected. The invention also provides a molecularly imprinted polymeric material and sensors employing the molecularly imprinted polymeric material.
