摘要:
5'-Esters of ara-cytidine (1-.beta.-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine) are prepared by reacting ara-cytidine with .beta.,.beta.,.beta.-trihaloethoxycarbonyl halide or other protective agency to form a protective amido group on the primary amino nitrogen of ara-cytidine and then reacting the thus-protected compound with a reagent reactive with the 5'-O-hydroxyl group, e.g., an acylating agent, to form the 5'-O-derivative. The .beta.,.beta.,.beta.-trihaloethoxycarbonyl or other protective group is then removed. Alternately, the primary amino group of ara-cytidine can be protected from acylation by protonation. The 5'-O-derivatives in their free base of salt form are characterized in that they display the property of sustained release of the compound, ara-cytidine, when administered intramuscularly or subcutaneously. Ara-cytidine is known for its anti-viral action and for its usefulness as an agent for controlling leukemias, including acute leukemia, and the sustained release property extends the usefulness of ara-cytidine for these purposes and as an inmunosuppressive agent. The 5'-O-derivartives of this invention can also be administered orally.

摘要:
The present invention concerns esters of R-enantiomers of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, which is substantially free from the S-enantiomer. The compounds of the invention may be used in treating a disease or illness in a mammal. To this end, a composition comprising a compound mentioned above, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof where salt formation occurs, is administered to the mammal in an amount sufficient to elicit a chemopreventative effect or a chemoprotective effect or a therapeutic effect or a prophylactic effect.

The present invention is generally related to the discovery of the therapeutic benefit of administering γ-tocopherol and γ-tocopherol derivatives. More specifically, the use of γ-tocopherol and racemic LLU-α, (S)-LLU-α, or γ-tocopherol derivatives as antioxidants and nitrogen oxide scavengers which treat and prevent high blood pressure, thromboembolic disease, cardiovascular disease, cancer, natriuretic disease, the formation of neuropathological lesions, and a reduced immune system response are disclosed.

This invention relates to the use of enantiomerically pure R-NSAIDs for the treatment of inflammation. Preferably, the R-NSAID used is R-flurbiprofen and is administered in a dose of at least 5 milligrams per kilogram of body weight per day. The anti-inflammatory action of R-NSAIDs is due to their ability to interfere with the biosynthesis of COX-2 by inhibiting COX-2 mRNA synthesis, rather than by just blocking the action of the enzyme itself. In order to effect the inhibition of COX-2 mRNA synthesis, the R-NSAID must be present at relatively high doses. Because the R-NSAID is selective in its action, that is, it does not inhibit either COX-1 mRNA synthesis or the COX-1 enzyme itself, it can be administered in the required high doses because the tissue protective effects of prostaglandins made through the COX-1 pathway are not interfered with.

摘要:
The present invention provides novel methods and compositions for treatment of pathological mineral resorptive states (PAMIRS), e.g., osteoporosis, employing disodiumchromoglycate (DSCG) and antiallergenic biologues, including other bis chromones, benzopyrans, and oxamates.
摘要:
A process of treatment for the management of the condition known as rheumatoid arthritis. The process manages rheumatoid arthritis by controlling the inflammatory process in a rheumatoid joint by the intra-articular administration to said joint of an effective amount for controlling the inflammatory process of certain N.sup.4 -acyl-ara-cytidines, 5'-O-acyl-ara-cytidines and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof, and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of 5'-O-acyl-2,2'-anhydro-ara-cytidines.
