摘要:
The invention provides a transgenic non-human animal expressing a perlecan encoding transgene. Also provided is a double-transgenic non-human animal expressing a perlecan and a amyloid encoding transgene. A method of screening for a compound which alters the rate or extent of amyloid deposition is additionally provided. The method consists of: (a) constructing a perlecan transgenic animal; (b) administering an effective amount of a test compound to said perlecan transgenic animal; and (c) determining whether said test compound alters the extent or rate of amyloid deposition. Finally, the invention provides a method of screening for a compound which alters the rate or extent of amyloid deposition. The method consists of: (a) constructing a perlecan/amyloid double-transgenic animal; (b) administering an effective amount of a test compound to said perlecan/amyloid double-transgenic animal; and (c) determining whether said test compound alters the extent or rate of amyloid deposition.

摘要:
A method of inhibiting the inflammatory process, the method comprising administering to a mammal suffering from inflammation a therapeutically effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound where: R is a C1-C10 alkylene group, in which, when the number of carbon atoms is at least 2, there are optionally 1 or 2 non-adjacent double bonds; 1 to 3 non-adjacent methylene groups are optionally replaced by NR1 (where R1 is H, alkyl, or acyl), O, or S; and 1 or 2 methylene groups are optionally replaced by a carbonyl or hydroxymethylene group and pharmaceutically acceptable esters or salts of the compounds and wherein the inflammatory process results from a disease selected from the group consisting of ulcerative colitis, endotoxic shock, rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile arthritis, osteoarthritis, psoriasis, Crohn's disease, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, gout, psoriatic arthritis, reactive arthritis, vital or post-viral arthritis and ankylosing spondylarthritis.

摘要:
A method of treating an amyloid disease, or a disease characterized by IAPP amyloid fibrils or islet amyloid deposits, in a mammalian subject. The method includes administering to the mammal a therapeutically effective amount of a various disclosed procyanidins or proanthocyanidins characterized by disclosed general formulae. A pharmaceutical composition and use of the composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a procyanidin and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. The therapeutic amount of the proanthocyanidin is selected for efficacy in treating IAPP amyloid fibrils or islet amyloid deposits in a mammalian subject.
