  • Patent number: 11976300
    Abstract: Disclosed is the use of a water-soluble realgar solid dispersion in the preparation of an erythroid differentiation inducer for bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells and/or bone marrow hematopoietic progenitor cells. The water-soluble realgar solid dispersion is prepared from raw materials comprising 1 part by weight of realgar, 1-20 parts by weight of a polymer, and 0-5 parts by weight of a surfactant. The water-soluble realgar solid dispersion can induce bone marrow hematopoietic stem and/or progenitor cells to be differentiated into red blood cells, promote the accumulation of red blood cells in bone marrow cells, effectively alleviate the decrease in the number of red blood cells caused by the suppression of the erythroid differentiation of bone marrow hematopoietic stem and/or progenitor cells, improve anemia caused by hematopoietic failure, and protect bone marrow cells from the killing effect.

  • Patent number: 11951228
    Abstract: Provided is a hemostatic composition comprising trypsin and zeolite, wherein pore channels of the zeolite are micropores, the zeolite contains divalent metal cations, and the mass ratio of the trypsin to the zeolite is 1:200-4:10. In the present invention, the trypsin specifically binds to the zeolite, allowing the trypsin to maintain a certain conformation on the surface of the zeolite and to obtain a higher procoagulant activity, thereby obtaining a hemostatic composition with an excellent blood coagulation effect. The hemostatic composition of the present invention has the advantages of a simple preparation method, low cost and convenient use, and can be widely used in hemostasis during trauma and operations, especially in emergent hemostasis in hemophilia patients.

  • Patent number: 11944613
    Abstract: The present invention pertains to novel treatments of neuropathic pain; in particular chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathic pain (CIPNP). The invention provides antagonists cytochrome P450 epoxygenases (CYP), and more specifically antagonists of CYP2J2, as therapeutics for use in the treatment of neuropathic pain such as CIPNP. CYP2J2 antagonists were identified to alleviate CIPNP in-vivo, and therefore are provided additionally in combination with chemotherapeutics for the treatment of diseases such as cancer or other proliferative disorders. The CYP2J2 antagonists reduce chemotherapeutic induced pain and therefore allow for a higher dosing of the chemotherapeutic during cancer treatment. In addition the invention relates to the use of CYP2J2 agonists, or metabolites of CYP2J2, for sensitizing TRPV1.
