摘要:
The present invention provides a class of chemical compounds useful as efficacious drugs in the treatment of sickle cell disease and diseases characterized by unwanted or abnormal cell proliferation, and in particular inflammatory diseases associated with unwanted cellular proliferation. The active compounds are substituted triaryl methane compounds or analogues thereof where one or more of the aryl groups is replaced with a heteroaryl, cycloalkyl or heterocycloalkyl group and/or the tertiary carbon atom is replaced with a different atom such as Si, Ge, N or P, the compounds inhibit mammalian cell proliferation, inhibit the Gardos channel of erythrocytes, reduce sickle erythrocyte dehydration and/or delay the occurrence of erythrocyte sickling or deformation.

A method of assisting a mammal having a lung disorder to breathe ambient gas normally, i.e., without the assistance of a ventilator. The method includes providing an animal having a lung disorder, such as surfactant deficiency, stiff lung, or hyperinflated lung syndrome, and instilling a minimum effective dose of a perfluorochemical liquid or emulsion through the trachea for coating the alveolar sacs of a lung of the mammal. The preferred perfluorochemicals have a very low vapor pressure to avoid inducing hyperinflated lung syndrome and are supplied in a minimum effective dosage sufficient to coat the inner lung surfaces. The perfluorochemicals are permeable to the ambient gas and reside substantially permanently within the alveolar sacs without inducing hyperinflated lung syndrome. The liquid is instilled in an amount sufficient to enable the animal to breathe the ambient gas normally with O.sub.2 /CO.sub.2 blood gas exchange. Effective coating of the lungs with a small (generally

Diphenylcyclopropyl analogs in which one or more of the phenyl rings includes alkoxy substituents including a dialkylaminoalkoxy group, an unsubstituted piperazine alkoxy group, a substituted piperazine alkoxy group, an unsubstituted piperidine alkoxy group, and a substituted piperidine alkoxy group, and which may have one or two alkyl groups bonded to the cyclopropane. The compounds are useful as antiestrogens and anti-tumor agents.

Disclosed herein are methods for regulating or ameliorating lipid and glucose metabolism and reducing in a vertebrate animal body fat stores, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, elevated blood lipoproteins (such as triglycerides and cholesterol including chylomicrons, VLDL and LDL) and/or increasing in the subject the plasma HDL. The methods comprise administration or timed administration of inhibitors of dopamine beta hydroxylase (DBH).

Described herein is an anti-dandruff composition including at least two anti-dandruff actives selected from a punicalagin composition; a first monoterpenoid composition, or a second monoterpenoid composition; and a dermatologically-acceptable carrier. The two or more anti-dandruff actives are present in the anti-dandruff composition in an effective amount to treat or prevent dandruff caused by the proliferation of Malassezia furfur.

摘要:
Methods and compositions for treating a subject hosting a non-ACTH-secreting pancreatic tumor are disclosed. The methods include administering to the subject a chemotherapeutic agent and a glucocorticoid receptor modulator (GRM), preferably a selective glucocorticoid receptor modulator (SGRM), to reduce the tumor load in the subject. The GRM may be a nonsteroidal GRM, and may be a nonsteroidal SGRM. The non-ACTH-secreting pancreatic tumor may be an exocrine pancreatic tumor. The nonsteroidal SGRM may be a nonsteroidal compound comprising: a fused azadecalin structure; a heteroaryl ketone fused azadecalin structure; or an octahydro fused azadecalin structure. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising a chemotherapeutic agent and a GRM are disclosed. The GRM in such pharmaceutical compositions may be a nonsteroidal GRM, and may be a SGRM, such as a nonsteroidal SGRM. The nonsteroidal SGRM may comprise: a fused azadecalin structure; a heteroaryl ketone fused azadecalin structure; or an octahydro fused azadecalin structure.
