Abstract:
Disclosed are compounds of general formula (I) that promote readthrough of a premature termination codon (PTC) of an RNA molecule in a translation system, and their use, alone or in combination with other compounds, such as aminoglycoside, to treat diseases or disorders ameliorated by modulation of a premature termination codon (PTC) of an RNA molecule in a translation system. The disorder or disease may be Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, Batten disease, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, cancer, and spinal muscular atrophy. Ar-L-B (I)
Abstract:
The present invention relates to, inter alia , a novel crystalline free- plate habit or morphology, processes for preparing the crystalline free-plate habit, and uses of the crystalline free-plate habit of the L- arginine salt of (R)-2-(7-(4-cyclopentyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyloxy) -l,2,3,4-tetrahydrocyclo-penta[b]indol-3-yl)acetic acid(Compound1) in the treatment of SIPjreceptor-associated disorders, for example, diseases and disorders mediated by lymphocytes, transplant rejection, autoimmune diseases and disorders, inflammatory diseases and disorders (e.g., acute and chronic inflammatory conditions), cancer, and conditionscharacterized byan underlying defect in the vascular integrity or that are associated with angiogenesis such as may be pathologic( e.g .,as may occur in inflammation, tumor development, and atherosclerosis).
Abstract:
The invention provides carbazole derivatives for the treatment of fibrotic diseases (pathological collagen deposition) in tissues and organs, and related symptoms, and conditions thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention provides the new use of composition comprising at least one inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) for increasing migration and homing of haematopoetic progenitor cells in stem cell transplanted recipients, wherein said haematopoetic stem and/or progenitor cells had been treated in vitro with an engraftment enhancing compound, specifically with a prostacyclin analogue and a cAMP enhancer before transplantation.
Abstract:
To provide a compound of formulaes (I), (II) and (III) having high T/B and a contrast agent for optical imaging. The compound has a molecular weight of a specific range, the compound in which two polyethylene glycols are bonded to a specific cyanine pigment through a linker. The present invention provides a compound which has a high T/B and which can be used as a contrast agent capable of imaging a tumor portion with high contrast.

Abstract:
A tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) for use in a method for the treatment of cancer in a patient, wherein the method comprises subjecting the patient to reduced caloric intake, i.e a daily caloric intake reduced by 10-100%, including starvation, for a period of 24-190 hours and administering the tyrosine kinase inhibitorto the patient during such period; the tyrosine kinase inhibitor is preferably selected among Lapatinib, Crizotinib, Gefitinib, Erlotinib, Afatinib and Regorafenib.
