摘要:
Compositions and methods of treatment of interferon-responsive disorders are provided wherein the methods, for example, comprise orally administering a composition which comprises a therapeutically effective amount of at least one alkylated imino sugar having an alkylated side chain, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the treatment of viral infections, particularly HBV and HCV infections, with a combination comprising a vaccine against a virus antigen and compounds that inhibit glucosidase activity in the host cell.
摘要:
Provided are methods and compositions for treating hepatitis virus infections in mammals, especially humans. The methods comprise (1) administering N-substituted-1,5-dideoxy-1,5-imino-D-glucitol compounds alone or in combination with nucleoside antiviral agents, nucleotide antiviral agents, mixtures thereof, or immunomodulating/immunostimulating agents, or (2) administering N-substituted-1,5-dideoxy-1,5-imino-D-glucitol compounds alone or in combination with nucleoside antiviral agents, nucleotide antiviral agents, or mixtures thereof, and immunomodulating/immuno-stimulating agents.

摘要:
A proliferation of cells can be reduced by contacting the cells with a compound having formula (I) where R and R′ are each alkyl groups, R″ is hydrogen or an alkyl group and X3, X4 and X5 are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, benzyl, t-butyldimethylsiloxy radical and triphenylmethyl. Accordingly, compounds of formula (I) can be used for treatment of tumors including melanoma. Also a secretion of a matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) enzyme by cells can be reduced by contacting the cells with the compound having formula (I). Accordingly, compounds of formula (I) can be used for treatment physiological conditions associated with an elevated MMP level, such as tumors.
摘要:
The present invention provides novel biomarkers for use in the diagnosis and prognosis of cancerous and malignant conditions and further of diseases which are mediated by a proinflammatory immune response. The biomarkers are glycoproteins, the levels of expression of which have been correlated by the inventors to correspond to particular disease conditions. The invention further extends to methods for use in monitoring the response to therapy of a treatment for use in the treatment of a cancerous condition or proinflammatory disease.
摘要:
One can identify and quantify one or more glycosylation markers of an autoimmune disease such as rheumatoid arthritis by utilizing quantitative HPLC analysis of glycans which have been released from unpurified glycoproteins. The unpurified glycoproteins can be total glycoproteins or a selection of the total glycoproteins. The identified glycosylation marker can be utilized for monitoring and/or diagnosing the autoimmune disease.
摘要:
Agents, which are both ceramide glucosyltransferase inhibitors and glucosidase inhibitors, may inhibit osteoclastogenesis and/or reduce osteoclast activation and, therefore, may be useful for osteolytic activity and bone loss in subjects with conditions, such as multiple myeloma.
摘要:
Provided are methods of reducing cellular cholesterol levels using lipid particles that are capable of cellular entry. Such lipid particles may be used for treating or preventing a disease or condition that is caused by or associated with an increased cellular cholesterol level and for treating or preventing a disease or condition, that is caused by or associated with a virus, that relies on cellular cholesterol for its replication.
