Abstract: The present invention is directed to an insulin formulation comprising a suspension of Ultralente crystals and a total formulation zinc concentration of between about 0.5 milligrams to about 20 milligrams per 100 units of insulin. Greater than fifty percent of the total zinc in the formulation resides in the soluble fraction, rather than in complex with the insulin. This insulin formulation generally has a pH from between about 6.0 to about 7.4. In addition, the insulin formulation of the present invention does not contain other proteins like protamine. This zinc-modified formulation displays characteristics of a very long lasting human insulin product.

Abstract: Monoclonal antibodies which react with the human influx peptide transporter are provided. The human influx peptide transporter-reactive antibodies are useful in the purification of influx peptide transporter and in immunoassays to identify agents taken up into the cell by the human influx peptide transporter mechanism. The monoclonal antibodies are also useful for the detection and treatment of carcinomas derived from the gastrointestinal tract and pancreatic duct.

Abstract: Wortmannin and certain of its analogs are inhibitors of bone loss/bone resorption and cartilage degradation.

Abstract: A group of 2-amino-3-aroyl-benzo[.beta.]thiophenes are prepared by treating an aldehyde with an anion of dimethylamino thioformamide, cyclizing the .alpha.-hydroxy thioamide, and subsequently acylating the benzo[.beta.]thiophene to yield the 2-amino-3-aryl derivative. These compounds may be treated with suitable phenyl Grignard reagents, and after deprotection, yield 6-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-[4-(2-piperidinoethoxy)benzoyl]benzo[.beta .]thiophene.
