    摘要: Cancers, particularly solid tumors (e.g., breast, lung, renal, colon and ovarian cancers and melanomas) and cancers of the hematologic system, e.g., hemopoietic cancers such as leukemias, lymphomas or myelomas, are treated by administration of a therapeutically effective amount of a compound having the formula (1): (I)in which the quinoline ring is substituted by from one to three groups selected from halogen and trifluoromethyl (designated in the formula by “A”), and is optionally further substituted by one or more other moieties and R is (a) NR1R2 in which R1 and R2 are independently hydrogen or C1-C4 alkyl; (b) 2-piperidyl, (c) 2-pyridyl, and (d) 5-(ethyl or vinyl)-quinuclidin-4-yl; an enantiomer of such a compound; a pharmaceutically acceptable salts of such a compound or of an enantiomer thereof; a prodrug of such a compound or of an enantiomer thereof; a metabolite of such a compound or of an enantiomer thereof; and mixtures of two or more of the foregoing. A particularly preferred compound is mefloquine.

    摘要: Novel, heterocyclic compounds having at least one ring nitrogen, disclosed side chains and, in some embodiments, an oxygen ortho to the ring nitrogen inhibit inflammatory responses associated with TNF-&agr; and fibroblast proliferation in vivo and in vitro. The compounds of the invention neither appreciably inhibit the activity of cAMP phosphodiesterase nor the hydrolysis of phosphatidic acid, and are neither cytotoxic nor cytostatic. Preferred compounds of the invention are esters. Methods for the use of the novel compounds to inhibit ceramide-mediated intracellular responses in stimuli in vivo (particularly TN-&agr;) are also described. The methods are expected to be of use in reducing inflammatory responses (for example, after angioplasty), in limiting fibrosis (for example, of the liver in cirrhosis), in inhibiting cell senescence, cell apoptosis and UV induced cutaneous immune suppression. Compounds having enhanced water solubility are also described.
