摘要:
This invention provides therapeutic methods for inhibiting tumor metastasis and for treating primary tumors. The methods of this invention do not cause serious side effects and will be effective for a broad spectrum of cancerous diseases. In particular, the invention discloses a novel method comprising administering to a mammal a preparation of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG). The IVIG preparation to be administered according to this invention may contain intact immunoglobulin molecules or fragments of immunoglobulins. The preparation is administered parenterally, preferably via intravenous, intracavitary or subcutaneous routes, either as a sole agent or in combination with other agents or methods which are commonly used for cancer treatment.

摘要:
The present application provides methods and compositions for inducing hepatocyte proliferation and liver regeneration, the latter being mainly dependent on hepatocyte proliferation even if all the other cell types divide to reconstitute the organ specific-lobular-architecture. The methods and compositions provided herein make use of an A3AR agonist. A preferred A3AR agonist disclosed herein is Cl-IB-MECA.
摘要:
The present disclosure provides the use of an A3R agonist, such as IB-MECA, for reducing in a subject, preferably, human subject, intra ocular pressure (IOP). Similarly, the invention provides a pharmaceutical composition and a method for reducing IOP in a subject making use of the A3R agonist.
摘要:
Inflammatory state in a subject is assayed by determining the level of expression of A3 adenosine receptor (A3AR) in white blood cells (WBC), e.g. circulating WBCs, from the subject. A high level of expression of A3AR is indicative of an inflammatory state in the subject. This assay can be used for determining the severity of inflammation in a subject and monitoring the efficacy of anti-inflammatory treatment. Also, the level of expression may be used for selecting patients to receive an anti-inflammatory treatment that comprises an A3AR agonist.
摘要:
Individuals suffering from multiple sclerosis may be treated by administration of an A3 adenosine receptor agonist (A3RAg), such as APNEA, AB-MECA, IB-MECA or Cl-IB-MECA. The A3RAg is preferably administered orally with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
摘要:
The present invention provides the use of an A3 adenosine receptor agonist (A3AR agonist) for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of a mammal subject having osteoarthritis (OA), as well as to a method for the treatment of OA in a mammal subject, the method comprises administering to said subject in need of said treatment an amount of an A3AR agonist, the amount being effective to treat or prevent the development of OA. Preferred but not exclusive A3AR agonists in accordance with the invention are IB-MECA and Cl—IB-MECA. The A3AR agonist may be administered in combination with another drug, such as, Methotrexate (MTX). The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions for treatment of osteoarthritis comprising an amount of an A3AR agonist.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for treating dry eye condition in an individual comprising administrating to said individual an amount of A3 adenosine receptor (A3AR) agonist, the amount being effective to ameliorate symptoms of dry eye in the individual. In accordance with one embodiment, the dry eye condition is manifested by one or more ophthalmologic clinical symptoms selected from foreign body sensation, burning, itching, irritation, redness, eye pain, blurred vision, degraded vision and excessive tearing. A preferred A3RAg in accordance with the invention is N6-(3-iodobenzyl)-adenosine-5′-N-methyluronamide (IB-MECA).
