Abstract:
This invention relates to the isolation and cloning of the promoter and other control regions of human PPARγ gene. It provides methods for identifying and screening for agents useful for the treatment of diseases and pathological conditions affected by the level of expression of the PPARγ gene. These agents interact directly or indirectly with the promoter or other control regions of the PPARγ gene.

Abstract:
Compounds having Formula I are useful for partially or fully antagonizing, repressing, agonizing, or modulating the glucocorticoid receptor and treating immune, autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in a mammal. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising compounds of Formula I and methods of inhibiting immune or autoimmune diseases in a mammal.
Abstract:
This invention relates to the isolation and cloning of the promoter and other control regions of a human ob gene. It provides a method for identifying and screening for agents useful for the treatment of diseases and pathological conditions affected by the level of expression of an ob gene. These agents interact directly or indirectly with the promoter or other control regions of the ob gene. A PPAR.gamma. agonist, BRL49653, has been identified to be useful in treating anorexia, cachexia, and other diseases characterized by insufficient food intake or body weight loss. Modulators of ob gene expression may be used to treat other diseases such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases and infertility.
Abstract:
This invention relates to methods and compositions for the treatment of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus using an RXR agonist alone or in combination with a PPAR.gamma. agonist such as a thiazolidinedione compound.
Abstract:
Non-steroidal compounds which are high affinity, high selectivity modulators for steroid receptors and the method of preparing these compounds are disclosed. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions incorporating such compounds, methods for employing the disclosed compounds and compositions for treating patients requiring steroid receptor agonist or antagonist therapy, intermediates useful in the preparation of the compounds and processes for the preparation of the steroid receptor modulator compounds.
Abstract:
Compounds, compositions, and methods for modulating processes mediated by Retinoid X Receptors using retinoid-like compounds which have activity selective for members of the subclass of Retinoid X Receptors (RXRs), in preference to members of the subclass of Retinoic Acid Receptors (RARs). Examples of such compounds are bicyclic benzyl, pyridinyl, thiophene, furanyl, and pyrrole derivatives. The disclosed methods employ compounds for modulating processes selectively mediated by Retinoid X Receptors.
