摘要:
It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel compound having an antioxidant effect and a technique of using the novel compound. The above object is achieved by providing a compound represented by the following formula (1): wherein any one of R1 to R3 is hydrogen, an acetyl group, a 2-butenoyl group, or a 2-methyl-2-pentenoyl group, each of the other two of R1 to R3 is hydrogen, any one of R4 to R6 is a 2-methyl-2-butenoyl group, and each of the other two of R4 to R6 is hydrogen.
摘要:
A novel lipoteichoic acid (LTA) was isolated from C. difficile, the structure of which is illustrated below wherein n is an integer between 1 and 20, R3 and R4 are independently selected from C 14:0, C 16:0, C 16:1, C 18:0 or C18:1 fatty acid or any combination thereof wherein one of COR3 or COR4 may be replaced by H. Further described are conjugates comprising the novel LTA and vaccines produced using the isolated LTA and the LTA conjugates. The invention also encompasses methods of conferring immunity against C. difficile comprising administering a vaccine of the invention, and methods of detecting C. difficile using the isolated LTA of the invention.
摘要:
One aspect of the present invention relates to compounds, compositions and methods for diagnosis and/or treatment of a subject suffering from an amyloidosis-associated pathological condition. In certain embodiments, the imaging and/or therapeutic agents of the instant invention may be administered to a subject for identification and/or treatment of amyloid deposits. A specific imaging method detects amyloid deposits by administering the imaging agent to the subject and detecting the spatial distribution of the agent. Differential accumulation of the agent is indicative of AD or an amyloidosis-associated pathological condition and can be monitored by using a PET or SPECT camera.

摘要:
A plastic film having an internal haze of at most 0.08 and a total haze of at least 0.41 is, when attached to a polarizer and incorporated in a display device as a retardation film therein, effective for bettering the contrast of the device, and has good film handling characteristics during transport.
摘要:
A method is described for providing acute symptomatic relief to a subject with Parkinson's Disease (PD) or other CNS disorders resulting from dopamine deficiency in the brain comprising administering to said subject an amount of a ketogenic material sufficient to produce a ketosis in the subject sufficient to provide therapeutic benefit in such neurological disorders. Preferred materials produce a ketosis is such that the total concentration of acetoacetate and (R)-3-hydroxybutyrate in the blood of the subject is raised to between 0.1 and 30 mM.
