Abstract:
The present invention aims to obtain an optical isomer of DCP-LA, which shows more superior activity and is suitable for clinical utilization, and provide an agent having a superior PKC-ε activation action, a prophylactic and/or therapeutic agent for neurotransmitter release disorders, and a prophylactic and/or therapeutic agent for neuropsychiatric diseases, which contain the isomer as an active ingredient.A compound represented by the following formula: or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a selective PKC-ε activator containing same as an active ingredient, and is the like.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition containing, as an active ingredient, a compound that specifically binds to KSRP or a functional fragment thereof, and a screening method for the compound. KSRP is a novel target protein for anticancer agents; a compound capable of regulating the expression and activity of such a protein and a pharmaceutical composition containing it are highly useful for proliferative diseases, particularly as anticancer agents. By providing the novel target protein, the mechanism behind the anticancer effect that has conventionally been unexplainable can be elucidated.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of screening for a compound useful for treatment of an allergic disease by identifying a molecule targeted by Intal upon exertion of its efficacy as an anti-allergic agent (hereinafter referred as a target) and using the target, as well as a new type of anti-allergic agent comprising a compound obtainable by the screening as an active ingredient for treatment of an allergic disease.
Abstract:
The present invention concerns glycoprotein IIa/IIIb antagonists and platelet aggregation inhibitors of the formula (I): ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is aryl which may have one or more suitable substituent(s),R.sup.2 is carboxy(lower)alkyl or protected carboxy(lower)alkyl,R.sup.3 is carboxy or protected carboxy,A.sup.1 is alkylene which may have one or more suitable substituent(s),A.sup.2 is a group of the formula: ##STR2## (wherein R is lower alkyl), or a group of the formula:--NHCH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CO--,A.sup.3 is lower alkylene which may have one or more suitable substituent(s),l, m and n are each the same or different an integer of 0 or 1,with proviso that A.sup.2 is not a group of the formula:--NHCH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CO--,when l is an integer of 0.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of analyzing the interaction between a ligand and a target molecule, which uses a solid support wherein the ligand is immobilized via a linker cleavable by photoirradiation, particularly a method of searching and purifying a target molecule. By intervening a linker specifically cleavable by photoirradiation between the ligand molecule and the solid support, release and elution of the target molecule from the solid support without using a ligand or salt at a high concentration can be enabled, and suppression of release and elution of a nonspecific protein can be enabled.
Abstract:
Thiazole compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein the substituents are defined herein are disclosed as having antithrombotic, vasodilating, antiallergic, antiinflammatory and 5-lipoxygenase inhibitory activity.
