    摘要: The invention is a method of inhibiting the production of nitric oxide (NO) in an in vivo, in vitro, or ex vivo biological system. The method employs a tetracycline compound to inhibit the production of NO and/or to inhibit the expression or activity of an inducible isoform of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Preferably, the tetracycline compound has inhibitory activity for metalloproteinases. Also it is preferred that the tetracycline compound is provided to the biological system in an amount which has little or no antibacterial activity in the system. Accordingly, preferred tetracycline compounds are tetracycline compounds which have be modified to reduce or eliminate their antimicrobial activity. The method can be used to treat medical conditions in mammals characterized by NO production mediated by iNOS, including, for example, inflammatory conditions.

    摘要: A method for improving the healing response of epithelialized tissue (e.g., skin, mucosae) to acute traumatic injury is disclosed. The method includes employing a tetracycline compound, having substantially no antibacterial activity, to improve the capacity of the epithelialized tissue to heal acute wounds. Specifically, the method involves increasing the rate of collagen accumulation of the healing epithelialized tissue above that associated with wound healing in the individual. The method decreases proteolytic activity in the epithelialized tissue by means of the tetracycline compound, most commonly decreasing collagenolytic activity and/or decreasing gelatinolytic activity. Collagenase and gelatinase activity have been shown to be decreased by the method of the invention. Preferably, the method is employed to improve the wound healing capacity of human or animal subjects in whom such capacity is impaired. Also, the non-antibiotic tetracycline is preferably administered topically at the site of the wound.

    摘要: Tetracyclines, antibacterial and non-antibacterial tetracyclines, have been found to be useful in the treatment of osteoporosis in humans by administering to the human suffering from osteoporosis an effective amount of a tetracycline to enhance bone protein synthesis. Tetracyclines which have been found to be effective in the treatment of osteoporosis in humans include minocycline, doxycycline and dedimethylaminotetracyline.

    摘要: A method for treating diabetes in a mammal by moderately controlling blood glucose concentration in the mammal together with administering to the mammal an amount of a tetracycline compound effective to reduce complications associated with diabetic hyperglycemia. The method enables long term management of diabetes by avoiding the problems associated with tight control of blood glucose concentrations, i.e., hypoglycemia tolerance and seizures, while simultaneously avoiding the problems associated with conventional moderate control of blood glucose concentrations, i.e., pathological complications associated with hyperglycemia, such as nephropathy, retinopathy, etc. Blood glucose concentration can be controlled by moderate administration (e.g., fewer injections per day) of insulin or another glucose-modulating agent, while pathological complications characteristic of diabetic hyperglycemia are ameliorated through the activity of tetracycline compound, the latter preferably administered in an amount that is substantially non-antimicrobial.
