摘要:
A method for treating the adverse effects of acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors used in the treatment of cognitive disorders such as acute delirium and cognitive impairment in elderly human patients. The administration of a clinically effective amount of a quaternary ammonium anti-cholinergic muscarinic receptor antagonist having very low lipid solubility substantially eliminates the adverse effects of urinary and/or fecal incontinence, nausea, bradycardia, bronchorrhea or brochospasm caused by the acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors, without affecting the beneficial activity of the acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors. This permits the administration of the optimum effective dosing of acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors to provide maximum benefit to the patient with the added benefit of reducing or eliminating the unwanted side effects of fecal and urinary incontinence. Further, the combination of rivastigmine and glycopyrrolate has been effective in significantly improving cognitive function in patients suffering from acute dementia or cognitive impairment.
摘要:
A method administers quaternary ammonium anti-cholinergic muscarinic receptor antagonists in combination with acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors to treat either cognitive impairment or acute delirium. This therapy results in a modification of a cognitive disorder or disease, namely a slow down in the disease progression. In one preferred embodiment, the disease is dementia with Lewy Bodies. New formulations for quaternary ammonium anti-cholinergic muscarinic receptor antagonists are also disclosed.

摘要:
The present invention is directed to an isolated nucleic acid molecule encoding an interferon-.alpha.-induced protein, particularly the protein designated p36. Expression vectors and host cells comprising the nucleic acid molecule are also provided, as well as methods for increasing or decreasing the expression of the interferon-.alpha.-induced protein in host cells. DNA oligomers and antibodies specific for interferon-.alpha.-induced protein are provided, each of which can be used to detect interferon-.alpha.-induced protein in a sample. Methods for diagnosing immunodeficiency and autoimmune disease in an individual and methods for detecting the presence or past existence of lupus inclusions or interferon-.alpha. in a sample are also provided.
