Abstract:
Treatment of mitochondrial related conditions in mammals with antagonists or chelating agents of copper (II), preferably tetramines or penicillamines. These agents affect TGF-beta, Smad 4, collagen IV, cytochrome C oxidase and erectile dysfunction.
Abstract:
This invention provides: 1) a method of treating a subject suffering from, or predisposed to a kidney disease or disorder; 2) a method of treating a subject suffering from a wound, or reducing the incidence of, or mitigating the severity of a wound in a subject; 3) a method of treating a subject suffering from a burn, or reducing the incidence of, or mitigating the severity of a burn in a subject, comprising the step of administering to said subject a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) compound; 4) a method of treating a subject suffering from a spinal cord injury, by administering to the subject a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) and/or an analog, derivative, isomer, metabolite, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, pharmaceutical product, hydrate, N-oxide, prodrug, polymorph, impurity or crystal of said SARM compound, or any combination thereof.
Abstract:
The invention provides a combination of compositions for treating, preventing, reversing or inhibiting pain, wherein at least one composition comprises a nitration inhibitor. Further provided is a method wherein the nitration inhibitor is selected from the group consisting of a SO generating system inhibitor, SO scavenger, NOS inhibitor, NO generating system inhibitor, NO scavenger, peroxynitrite generating system inhibitor, peroxynitrite scavenger, and any combination thereof. Preferably, the nitration inhibitor is combined with a pain inhibitor. The pain inhibitor is still more preferably an opioid.
Abstract:
A pharmaceutical composition is provided for systemically treating a living mammal or avian. The composition preferably comprises an alkyl-dimethyl-benzyl-ammonium chloride, an alkyl-dimethyl-ethylbenzyl-ammonium chloride, and an organotin compound in a vehicle suitable for systemically treating a living mammal or avian of viral, bacterial, fungal infections and diseases, including HIV in humans.
Abstract:
Organotin(IV) compounds with N-acetylcysteine having the general formula (1 ) o (2): wherein: R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are each independently selected from the group consisting of : H, an alkyl, alkoxyl, alkenyl or alkynyl group with up to 12 carbon atoms, an isocyclic or heterocyclic aromatic or aralkyl group with up to 12 carbon atoms, and they are preferably chosen from methyl, ethyl, butyl or phenyl, are synthetized by simple procedures from commercial products, and are active as anticancer agents. In particular, the Bu 2 Sn-N-acetylcysteinate derivative was found to have a potent and selective anticancer activity in vitro against several cancer cell lines.
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to the treatment and prophylaxis of events, conditions and diseases of the systemic vasculature and treatment and prophylaxis of infection by pathogenic agents. Agents are contemplated which enhance levels of stem cells and/or facilitate the angiogenic or vasculogenic capability of stem cells or their precursors or early committed cells of a particular cell lineage or to mobilize stem cells to thereby promote repair and maintenance of elements and components of the systemic vasculature. A method is also provided to activate hypoxic gene programming in target tissues to induce angiogenesis and recruit progenitor cells to that site. Still further, a method to facilitate enhancement of immune function is also provided. Agents and pharmaceutical compositions including functional foods and specialized drug delivery devices useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of events, conditions and disease of the systemic vasculature and to enhance the immune system are contemplated.
