摘要:
Substantially pure dimers of Apolipoprotein AI-Milano (APO-AI-M/APO AI-M) were isolated from plasma and characterized. Apolipoprotein AI-M dimer can also be produced in a recombinant Escherichia coli system. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising the ApoAI-AI-M/ApoAI-M are described. Patients with atherosclerosis or cardiovascular diseases can be treated with the dimer. Medicaments containing the dimer can also be used to prevent thrombosis in different clinical circumstances, both at the arterial and at the venous level. The dimer can also act as a prodrug for the monomer.

Substantially pure dimers of Apolipoprotein Al-Milano (Al-M/APO Al-M) isolated and characterized from plasma are provided. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising the Apo Al-M/Apo Al-M are also provided. Apolipoprotein Al-M dimer can be produced in a recombinant Escherichia coli system or collected from plasma from Apolipoprotein Al-Milano carriers. Atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases can be treated with the dimer. Medicaments containing the dimer can also be used for preventing thrombosis in different clinical circumstances, both at the arterial and at the venous level. The dimer can also act as a prodrug for the monomer.

Compounds of the formula I wherein R1a is H; and R1b is C1-C6alkyl, Carbocyclyl or Het; or R1a and R1b together define a saturated cyclic amine with 3-6 ring atoms; R2a and R2b are independently H, halo, C1-C4alkyl, C1-C4haloalkyl or C1-C4alkoxy, or R2a and R2b together with the carbon atom to which they are attached form a C3-C6cycloalkyl; R3 is a branched C5-C10 alkyl chain, C2-C4haloalkyl or —CH2C3-C7 cycloalkyl; R4 is C1-C6alkyl, C1-C6haloalkyl, C1-C6alkylamino or C1-C6dialkylamino; for use in the prophylaxis or treatment of a disorder characterised by inappropriate expression or activation of cathepsin S.
摘要:
The present invention provides a gene encoding a G protein-coupled receptor termed nGPCR-x; constructs and recombinant host cells incorporating the genes; the nGPCR-x polypeptides encoded by the gene; antibodies to the nGPCR-x polypeptides; and methods of making and using all of the foregoing.
摘要:
A rehabilitative and/or exercise machine that has a frame with attachments to multiple independent bidirectional resistance devices (pneumatic, hydraulic, spring actuated, pulley system, cam, or any other resistance devices) used by the arms and/or legs to provide resistance against movement of the user's appendages in two substantially opposed directions. The resistance devices may have a mechanism such as one or more valves, brakes, springs, or the like that control bi-directional resistance. The action of the arms and/or legs in bi-directional resistance offers near full body exercise of the agonist/antagonist muscles using flexion and extension action of the larger muscle groups in a gait pattern, simultaneously. Hand engaging members attach to the arm resistance devices and foot engaging members attach to the leg resistance devices. The unit may include an attached inclined backboard, mat, bench, or cushion to fully or partially support the user, such as for the user to sit or lay on. The unit may have separate adjustment mechanisms for adjusting the height and/or length of the various portions of the unit to adjust the range of motion of the appendages. The unit may have devices to monitor pulse, oxygen flow and other vital signs.
