Abstract:
The present invention relates to a class of compounds represented by the Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, pharmaceutical compositions comprising compounds of the Formula I, and methods of selectively inhibiting or antagonizing the αVβ3 and/or the αVβ5 integrin without significantly inhibiting the αVβ6 integrin.
Abstract:
The invention provides conjugates of negatively charged peptide oligomers with therapeutic agents, moieties capable of recruiting endogenous bone-affecting agents, or imaging agents, useful for delivering the agents to bone tissue or calcified masses, and the methods of use thereof. The negatively charged peptide oligomers bind strongly but reversibly to bone tissue and calcified masses with a controllable affinity and retention time on the tissue or mass.
Abstract:
Indoles that have activity as inhibitors of FAAH are described as are indoles and indole derivatives that have activity as inhibitors of DAO.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to improved oral liquid compositions that include sumatriptan, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or metabolite thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier that includes a liquid portion of the composition. The compositions are substantially free of oxidation impurities. Typically, the compositions include a sweetening agent and a flavoring agent, or a bitterness-reducing agent and flavoring agent. Processes of preparing such compositions and methods of administering such compositions are also included.
Abstract:
Certain substituted indoles that are modulators of one or more or of CRTH2, COX-2 AND FAAH are described. The compounds are useful for treatment of pain and/or inflammation as well as other disorders.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a class of compounds represented by the Formula I Wherein A1 is a pyridinyl of the formula optionally substituted by one or more Rk selected from the group consisting of hydroxy, alkyl, alkoxy, alkoxyalkyl, thioalkyl, haloalkyl, cyano, amino alkylamino, halogen, acylamino, sulfonamide and —COR; and R is hydroxy, alkoxy, alkyl or amino; and pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, pharmaceutical compositions comprising compounds of the Formula I, and methods of selectively inhibiting or antagonizing the αvβ3 and/or αvβ5 integrin.
Abstract:
Improved DNA structures are disclosed which contain target sequences which bind to control proteins (such as the CREB protein). The structures of the present invention are stable to degradation, and are effective as decoys for control proteins, making it possible to modulate the transcriptional control normally exerted by such control proteins. In addition, there is provided a method to reversibly crosslink oligonucleotides to polypeptides which recognize the oligonucleotide sequence. This method involves synthesizing DNA structures as described above, wherein one or more phosphorothioate diester linkages are incorporated into the resulting oligonucleotide, allowing the phosphorothioate diester-containing oligonucleotide to bind to polypeptides which recognize the sequence of said oligonucleotide, then contacting the polypeptide-bound oligonucleotide with a transition metal reagent.
