摘要:
N-substituted azetidinones are a class of inhibitors of human leukocytes elastase which are known to be useful in the treatment of a wide variety of antiinflammatory and antidegenerative diseases. In inhibiting elastase, the therapeutic agents are shown to form a characteristic stable complex with the enzyme. In the assay disclosed herein, the inhibitor-enzyme complex is advantageously hydrolyzed and specific product(s) of the hydrolysis are measured. The assays are useful in a clinical setting, for determining appropriate dosage and assessing the effectiveness of treatment.

摘要:
Compounds of Formula I are antagonists of VLA-4 and/or alpha4/beta7, and as such are useful in the inhibition or prevention of cell adhesion and cell-adhesion mediated pathologies. These compounds may be formulated into pharmaceutical compositions and are suitable for use in the treatment of AIDS-related dementia, allergic conjunctivitis, allergic rhinitis, Alzheimer's disease, asthma, atherosclerosis, autologous bone marrow transplantation, certain types of toxic and immune-based nephritis, contact dermal hypersensitivity, inflammatory bowel disease including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, inflammatory lung diseases, inflammatory sequelae of viral infections, meningitis, multiple sclerosis, multiple myeloma, myocarditis, organ transplantation, psoriasis, pulmonary fibrosis, restenosis, retinitis, rheumatoid arthritis, septic arthritis, stroke, tumor metastasis, uveititis, and type I diabetes.

In inhibiting elastase, the therapeutic agents are shown to form a characteristic stable complex with the enzyme. In the radioimmune assay disclosed herein, the inhibitor-enzyme complex is advantageously hydrolyzed and specific product(s) of the hydrolysis are measured. The assays are useful in a clinical setting, for determining appropriate dosage and assessing the effectiveness of treatment.
摘要:
A new homogeneous cytosolic binding (HCB) protein, having a specific binding activity of about 26 .mu.g FK-506 per mg protein and a molecular weight of about 10-12 kilodaltons, reversibly binds the immunosuppressant FK-506 but not cyclosporine A (CSA). The protein is stable to heating at 56 degrees C. for 30 minutes retaining its FK-506 binding affinity, and has the (partial) amino terminal amino acid sequence: H.sub.2 N-Gly-Val-Gln-Val-Glu-Thr-Ile-Ser-Pro- Gly-Asp-Gly-Arg-Thr-Phe-Pro-Lys- Ar g-Gly-Gln-Thr-X-Val-Val-His-Tyr-Thr-Gly-Met-Leu-Glu-Asp-Gly-Lys-Lys-Phe-Asp (wherein X is undefined). The HCB protein is isolated from the cytosol of mammalian tissues, preferably human neoplastic T-cell lines, e.g., Jurkat, and can be used in diagnostic and purification procedures involving FK-506 macrolide type immunosuppressants. The HCB protein also catalyzes the cis-trans isomerization of proline-containing peptide bonds.
