The invention also provides a method of controlling absence seizures in a mammal, by administering to a mammal susceptible to absence seizures an effective amount of PrRP or a PrRP functional analog. Also provided are methods of identifying a compound that modulates AMPA receptor signaling in a mammal, by providing a compound that is a PrRP or PrRP functional analog, and determining the ability of the compound to modulate AMPA receptor signaling. The invention also provides methods of identifying a compound for controlling absence seizures in a mammal, by providing a compound that is a PrRP or PrRP functional analog, and determining the ability of the compound to control absence seizures in a mammal. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions for controlling absence seizures in a mamma. The compositions and related methods contain a compound identified by the methods of the invention as a compound that modulates AMPA receptor signaling or as a compound that controls absence seizures.

    摘要: The instant invention is a method for increasing a metazoan's lifespan, comprising administering a carboxylated derivative of a C60 fullerene. The instant invention further is a process for extending a metazoan's lifespan by administering a superoxide dismutase-mimetic as well as a composition comprising a superoxide dismutase-mimetic. Further, the instant invention comprises a pharmaceutical composition comprising carboxyfullerenes having x pairs of adjacent carbon atoms bonded to two carbons of the C60 sphere wherein said adjacent carbon atom is further bonded to two groups of the general formula nullCOOH and nullR, wherein R is independently selected from the group consisting of nullCOOH and nullH, and wherein x is at least 1. A further embodiment is a non-metal containing composition which can catalytically eliminate two biologically reactive species. Another embodiment is a method of enhancing elimination of reactive oxygen species in eukaryotic cells by contacting cells with a superoxide dismutase mimetic.

    摘要: A substance to prevent or reverse weight gain induced by psychoactive agents (10) having an antipsychotic drug (12) or mood stabilizing drug (14) in a concentration from 0.01% to 99.99% in combination with a histamine H2-receptor antagonist (16) in a concentration from 99.99% to 0.01%. The antipsychotic drug (12) is selected from a group consisting of olanzapine (12A), clozapine (12B), risperidone (12C), and quetiapine (12D). The antipsychotic drug (12) is typically in a concentration of 10% to 90%, 30% to 60% and 50%. The mood stabilizing drug (14) is selected from a group consisting of divalproex sodium (14A), valproic acid (14B), and mirtazapine (14C). The mood stabilizing drug (14) is typically in a concentration of 10% to 90%, 30% to 60% and 50%. The histamine H2-receptor antagonist (16) is selected from a group consisting of nizatidine (16A), famotidine (16B), cimetidine (16C) and ranitidine (16D). The histamine H2-receptor antagonist (16) is in a concentration of 90% to 10%. The histamine H2-receptor antagonist (16) is typically in a concentration of 60% to 30% and 50%.

    摘要: Dapsone and related sulfones are known to have therapeutic activity against leprosy, dermatitis herpetiformis, actinomycotic mycetoma, asthma, malaria, rheumatoid arthritis, Kaposinulls sarcoma, pneumocystis carininull (pneumonia), subcorneal pustular dermatosis and cystic acne, in patients in need of such therapy. These sulfones are also known to have therapeutic activity against memory loss in patients in need of such therapy, including patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease and related neurodegenerative disorders. It has now been found that new, modified-release formulations of dapsone and related sulfones may also be used that decrease side effects and increase effectiveness of the drugs. New methods are disclosed utilizing certain formulations of dapsone and related sulfones that improve the therapeutic index of said drugs. Side effects of these drugs are known to those skilled in the art and include, but are not restricted to anorexia, psychosis, agranulocytosis, peripheral neuritis, hemolysis, methemoglobinemia, nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, tachycardia, nervousness, insomnia and skin disorders. Modified-release (as defined herein) formulations of dapsone have now been found to avoid some or all of these side effects, and to have more efficacy on potency.
