摘要:
The invention relates to the combined administration of PDE4-inhibitors and NSAIDs for the treatment of an inflammatory disease and/or an inflammation associated disorder while minimizing gastrointesti-nal side effects, such as gastric erosions and ulcer, which are frequently associated with the use of NSAIDs.
摘要:
Compositions and methods are provided for treating diseases associated with aberrant silencing of gene expression such as cancer by reestablishing the gene expression through inhibition of DNA hypomethylation and histone deacetylase. The method comprises: administering to a patient suffering from the disease a therapeutically effective amount of a DNA methylation inhibitor such as a cysteine analog such as decitabine, in combination with an effective amount of histone deacetylase inhibitor such as hydroxamic acid, cyclic peptide, benzamide, butyrate, and depudecin.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to methods of treating movement disorders by administering an effective amount of one or more adenosine A2A receptor antagonists to a patient in need thereof. The present invention also provides methods of decreasing the adverse effects of L-DOPA in patients receiving L-DOPA therapy in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. The present invention further provides methods and compositions for treating Parkinson's disease patients with sub-clinically effective doses of L-DOPA by combining L-DOPA treatment with an effective amount of one or more adenosine A2A receptor antagonists (i.e., L-DOPA sparing effect). The present invention further provides methods of effective treatment of Parkinson's disease by co-administering at least one adenosine A2A receptor antagonist, L-DOPA and a dopamine agonist and/or a COMT inhibitor and/or a MAO inhibitor. The present invention further provides methods of prolonging effective treatment of Parkinson's disease by administering an adenosine A2A receptor antagonist singly or together with a dopamine agonist, and/or a COMT inhibitor, and/or a MAO inhibitor without prior or subsequent administration of L-DOPA, delaying or removing on-set of L-DOPA motor complication.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a pharmacodynamic marker for the candidate 2,6,9-tri-substituted purine known as roscovitine. The identity of this marker facilitates the convenient identification of roscovitine activity both in vitro and in vivo.
摘要:
Disclosed herein are a process for producing mixed crystals of disodium 5null-guanylate and disodium 5null-inosinate which comprises precipitating mixed crystals of disodium 5null-guanylate and disodium 5null-inosinate (InullG mixed crystals) by adding an aqueous mixed solution of disodium 5null-guanylate and disodium 5null-inosinate and a hydrophilic organic solvent at the same time into a crystallization vessel in such manner that the ratio of the hydrophilic organic solvent to the liquid phase in the crystallization vessel is maintained in a range of 30 to 70 vol %, as well as such process for producing InullG mixed crystals wherein said producing of InullG mixed crystals is carried out by seeding crystallization wherein crystals of 5null-IMP2Na or/and InullG mixed crystals are used as seed crystals. According to these production processes, the by-production of amorphous solids of 5null-GMP2Na which adversely affect separability of the crystals concerned, is inhibited, and therefore, such mixed crystals having a good separability without contamination of such amorphous solids, can be produced in a high productivity.
摘要:
Methods and compositions for targeting cerebral circulation and treatment of headache include formulations comprising a pharmacologically active substance in a transdermal formulation, which is topically applied to an area of skin superficial to a carotid artery, a temporal artery, a vertebral artery, or to a tender spot associated with a headache. Particularly preferred formulations include a xanthine derivative (e.g., theophylline, caffeine, aminophylline), and may further comprise ketoprofen. Contemplated methods further include methods of advertising use of contemplated compositions.
摘要:
Methods of treatment and pharmaceutical combinations are provided for the treatment of acute leukemia, such as acute myelogenous leukemia, and myelodysplastic syndrome. The methods of treatment and pharmaceutical combinations employ an anti-CD33 cytotoxic conjugate in combination with at least one compound selected from the group consisting of an anthracycline and a pyrimidine or purine nucleoside analog. Preferred methods of treatment and pharmaceutical combinations employ gemtuzumab ozogamicin, daunorubicin, and cytarabine.
摘要:
The present invention provides a topical composition comprising about 6% to about 15% nifedipine and about 6% to about 15% pentoxifylline for treating severe vascular occlusive wounds. The present invention also provides a method and a kit for treating the vascular occlusive wound by applying the composition to the open wound, and cleaning and dressing the wound at least once daily.
摘要:
The present invention concerns the use of an active ingredient selected from the group consisting of agonists of the adenosine receptor system, for inhibiting viral replication in cells. In particular, the invention provides a composition and method for inhibiting viral replication in cells, the method comprising presenting to the cells an effective amount of the active ingredient. According to one embodiment, the adenosine agonist is an A3 receptor agonist (A3RAg). The invention is particularly useful, for although not limited to, inhibiting the replication of HIV virus in human cells.
