摘要:
Pregnancy-associated glycoproteins (PAGs) are structurally related to the pepsins, thought to be restricted to the hoofed (ungulate) mammals and characterized by being expressed specifically in the outer epithelial cell layer (chorion/trophectoderm) of the placenta. By cloning expressed genes from ovine and bovine placental cDNA libraries, the inventors estimate that cattle, sheep, and most probably all ruminant Artiodactyla, possess possibly 100 or more PAG genes, many of which are placentally expressed. The PAGs are highly diverse in sequence, with regions of hypervariability confined largely to surface-exposed loops. Selected PAG that are products of the i0nvasive binucleate cells, expressed highly in early pregnancy at the time of trophoblast invasion and expressed weakly, if at all, in late gestation are useful in the early diagnosis of pregnancy. In a preferred embodiment, the invention relates to immunoassays for detecting these PAGs.

摘要:
The invention provides a method for improving hair biology, e.g., hair growth. The method comprises administering to a subject a monoamine oxidase inhibitor and a vasodilator, a zinc salt of a carboxylic acid, a xanthine compound, pyrithione or a salt thereof, saponin, tritapene, crataegolic acid, celastrol, asiatic acid, an inhibitor of 5-alpha-reductase, 1,4-methyl-4-azasteroid, an androgen receptor antagonist, azelaic acid or a derivate thereof, cyclosporin, triiodothyronine, diazoxide, retinoic acid, a prostaglandin analogue, aminexil, carnitine tartrate, apigenin, procapil, or adenosine, in an amount effective to achieve a desired effect. The invention further provides a method of reducing or delaying the appearance of an age-related skin imperfection. The method comprises administering to the subject a composition comprising an MAO inhibitor. A kit for improving hair growth also is provided.
摘要:
Hair care compositions, methods, and articles of commerce that can increase the appearance of thicker and fuller hair. Such compositions can be applied to any areas where a thicker and fuller hair appearance is desired, such as the scalp or face. The present invention also relates to methods of marketing such compositions.
