摘要:
Plasma levels of Lp(a) are lowered by administering an isothiazolone having the general structure ##STR1## where A is a monocyclic or bicyclic ring which may contain up to 3 heteroatoms selected from O, S, and N; R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are substituent groups such as alkyl, alkoxy, hydroxy, nitro, cyano, amino, and carboxy; and R.sup.5 is alkyl, cycloalkyl, phenyl, and Het.
摘要:
Sulfhydryl containing peptides having the formula X--A.sub.1 --A.sub.2 --A.sub.3 --A.sub.4 --A.sub.5 --Y inhibit the formation of Lp(a) and thus are useful for treating vascular diseases such as coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, cervical atherosclerosis, cerebral infarction, and restenosis.

摘要:
The present invention comprises a method of lowering plasma levels of Lp(a) in animals by administering an effective Lp(a)-reducing amount of a microsomal triglyceride transfer protein inhibitor of the structural formula: ##STR1## or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R.sup.1 is alkyl, alkenyl alkynyl, aryl, heteroaryl, arylalkyl, heteroarylalkyl, cycloalkyl, or cycloalkylalkyl, each of which is independently optionally substituted through available carbon atoms with 1, 2, or 3 groups selected from halo, alkyl, alkenyl, alkoxy, aryloxy, aryl, arylalkyl, alkylmercapto, arylmercapto, cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heteroaryl, and heteroarylalkyl. By lowering Lp(a) levels, the animals are protected against developing premature atherosclerosis and consequent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for measuring diacylglycerol acetyltransferase (DGAT) activity which utilizes a novel solvent system to reduce and/or eliminate the activities of related compounds. The present invention also discloses a method for determining whether a compound is useful for modulating DGAT biological activity. The method is capable of being utilized for mass screening of compounds as modulators of the biological activity of DGAT.
