摘要:
Provided is a levodopa prodrug that overcomes the problems attributed to the blood kinetics of levodopa such as large number of doses and the incidence of side effects due to frequent dosing. (2S)-2-Amino-3-(3,4-bis((2-(benzoyloxy)-2-methylpropanoyl)oxy)phenyl)propanoic acid, a salt thereof, or a solvate thereof is a levodopa prodrug, and provides a flat blood concentration-time profile of levodopa through oral administration, and therefore is useful as a preventive and/or therapeutic agent for Parkinson's disease and/or Parkinson's syndrome that overcomes the problems associated with pharmaceutical preparations of levodopa.
摘要:
It is intended to provide a compound represented by the formula (I): wherein all the symbols are as defined in the description; which has a p38 MAP kinase inhibitory activity, a salt thereof, an N-oxide thereof, a solvate thereof, or a prodrug thereof. The compound of the invention is useful for preventing or treating a disease in which the abnormal production of a cytokine such as an inflammatory cytokine or a chemokine or overreaction to them is considered to be involved in the cause and aggravation of pathological conditions, in other words, an inflammatory disease, a respiratory disease, a cardiovascular disease, a central nervous system disease or the like, which is a cytokine-mediated disease.
摘要:
Compounds represented by formula (I) wherein all symbols represent the same meanings as described in specification and salts thereof. Since the compound represented by the formula (I) binds and antagonizes to DP receptor, it is useful for the prevention or treatment against the disease such as allergic disorder, diseases accompanied with itching, secondary diseases generated by behaviors caused by itching, inflammation, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, ischemic reperfusion disorder, pleuritis complicated by rheumatoid arthritis, cerebrovascular disease, and ulcerative colitis.
摘要:
An N-phenylarylsulfonylamide compound of formula (I) (R1 is COOH etc.; R2 is hydrogen, methyl, etc.; R3 and R4 are a combination of methyl and methyl, etc.; R5 is isopropyl etc.; Ar is thiazolyl, pyridyl, 5-methyl-2-furyl each optionally substituted with methyl; n is zero or 1), a synthetic intermediate for the compound and a process for its preparation. The compound of formula (I) binds to a prostaglandin E2 receptor, especially an EP1 subtype receptor, and antagonizes it. It is less affected by protein binding, so it has a satisfactory in vivo activity. Therefore, it is considered to be useful as an analgesic, an antipyretic agent, an agent for the treatment of pollakiuria (frequent urination) and/or lower urinary tract disease syndrome or an antineoplastic agent.

摘要:
The present invention relates to human, rat and mouse stem cell-derived neuron survival factor polypeptides (SDNSF), a process for producing them, cDNA encoding SDNSF, a vector comprising the cDNA, host cells transformed by the vector, an antibody against SDNSF, pharmaceutical compositions containing SDNSF or the antibody, a method of assaying SDNSF, a reagent for assaying SDNSF, and a screening method using SDNSF. The polypeptides are effective in the survival of nerve cells and, therefore, efficacious in treating injury to the central nerve system caused by brain infarction, brain hemorrhage, spinal cord injury, etc.
摘要:
Since a compound represented by the general formula (I) (wherein definition of each group is as described in the specification), a salt thereof, a solvate thereof, or a prodrug thereof has strong and sustaining intraocular pressure lowering activity and, further, has no side effect on eyes such as ocular stimulating property (hyperemia, corneal clouding etc.), aqueous humor protein rise etc., it has high safety, and can be an excellent agent for preventing and/or treating glaucoma etc.

摘要:
A remedy and/or a preventive for a chronic disease which contains an EDG-2 antagonist. Because of binding to a subtype EDG-2 of LPA receptor, an EDG-2 antagonist is useful in treating and/or preventing chronic diseases (for example, diseases caused by the progress of chronic asthma, glomerular nephritis, obesity, arteriosclerosis, rheumatoid and atopic diseases) induced and made chronic by tissue cells whose proliferation is accelerated by LPA mediated by EDG-2.
摘要:
A pharmaceutical composition for prevention and/or treatment for HIV infection or AIDS induced by the infection which comprises, as an active ingredient, a triazaspiro[5.5]undecane derivative, a quaternary ammonium salt thereof, an N-oxide thereof, or a non-toxic salt thereof, and if necessary, it may be combined with at least one member of other agents for prevention and/or treatment for HIV infection (wherein all symbols are as defined in the specification.) The triazaspiro[5.5]undecane derivatives, the quaternary ammonium salts thereof or the N-oxides thereof, or the non-toxic salts thereof are useful in preventing and/or treating HIV infection and AIDS induced by the infection.
