摘要:
The present invention relates to polymeric derivatives, which can be conjugated to an amino-containing drug to improve its in vivo properties. The polymeric derivative can subsequently be released to yield the drug in its native form. Methods of preparing and using these polymeric derivatives and drug conjugates are described.
摘要:
Disclosed are methods for reducing the degree of antigen induced inflammation in a sensitized mammal. The disclosed methods employ oligosaccharide glycosides related to blood group determinants having a type I or type Ii core structure wherein the administration of such oligosaccharide glycosides is after initiation of the mammal's immune response but at or prior one-half the period of time required to effect maximal antigen-induced inflammation.
摘要:
The present invention provides non-anticoagulant sulfated or sulfonated polysaccharides (NASPs), which accelerate the blood clotting process. Also provided are pharmaceutical formulations comprising a NASP of the invention in conjunction with a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and, in various embodiments, these formulations are unit dosage formulations. The invention provides a NASP formulation, which is orally bioavailable. Also provided are methods for utilizing the compounds and formulations of the invention to promote blood clotting in vivo as therapeutic and prophylactic agents and in vitro as an aid to studies of the blood clotting process.
摘要:
A method for immobilizing dyes and antimicrobial agents on a polymeric cover or housing for a medical device is disclosed and described. The surface may be that of a catheter, a connector, a drug vial spike, a bag spike, a prosthetic device, an endoscope, a surface of an infusion pump, a key pad, a touch screen or a handle. The surfaces may also be one or more of those associated with a infusion of a medicament or dialysis treatment, such as peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis, where it is important that the working surface for the dialysis fluid be sterile. These surfaces include connectors for peritoneal dialysis sets or for hemodialysis sets, bag spikes, dialysis catheters, and so forth. A method for determining whether a surface has been sterilized, and a dye useful in so indicating, is also disclosed.
摘要:
Therapeutic compositions are provided. The compositions include a single molecule that can display both antioxidant and carbonyl trapping properties. This can effectively reduce inflammation, oxidative stress and carbonyl stress, such as to prevent and/or treat cardiovascular disease and inflammatory diseases in kidney disease patients.
