摘要:
An angiogenesis inhibitor comprising a cysteine protease inhibitory compound. As the preferable cysteine protease inhibitory compound, epoxysuccinic acid compounds, peptide halohydrazide compounds, calpain inhibitory compounds, compounds of the formula (I) and compounds of the formula (VI) can be used. The angiogenesis inhibitor of the present invention suppresses new formation of blood vessels in the living tissues, so that it can be used as a superior therapeutic or prophylactic agent of angiogenesis associated with wound healing, inflammation, growth of tumor and the like; and angiogenesis as seen in diabetic retinopathy, prematurity retinopathy, retinal venous occlusion, senile discoid macular degeneration and the like, as well as for prevention of metastasis of tumors.
摘要:
It is intended to provide an agent for promoting corneal neuritogenesis containing PACAP, a PACAP derivative or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in particular, an agent for promoting corneal neuritogenesis aiming at improving corneal sensitivity, treating dry eye and treating corneal epithelial injury due to an effect of promoting corneal neuritogenesis. This agent for promoting corneal neuritogenesis is useful as a drug for ameliorating reduction in corneal sensitivity following corneal surgeries such as laser keratonomy (LASIK) and corneal grafting or cataract surgery, reduction in corneal sensitivity accompanying corneal neurodegeneration and dry eye symptom and corneal epithelial injury accompanying such reduction in corneal sensitivity. Moreover, it is useful as a drug for ameliorating dry eye symptom, reduction in corneal sensitivity and corneal epithelial injury in patients with dry eye, and a drug for ameliorating corneal epithelial injury and dry eye symptom and reduction in corneal sensitivity accompanying therewith.
摘要:
The amide compound of the formula (I) [each symbol is as defined in the description] has a promoting action on neuritogenesis of trigeminal nerve cells, and the compound is useful as a corneal neuritogenesis promoter, an agent for recovering corneal sensitivity by promotion of corneal neuritogenesis, and an agent for treating dry eye.
