Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of treating or preventing a viral infection by raising the pH of the airways of a subject. The effect can be mediated directly by administering a pharmaceutically acceptable basic solution. Additionally, the method provides co-administering an anti-viral composition to the subject.

Abstract: A method of stimulating ventilatory and/or respiratory drive in a subject in need thereof includes administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a composition comprising a D-cysteine alkyl ester, adduct thereof, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt, tautomer, or solvate thereof.

Abstract: The present invention describes a novel, simplified method for detecting and monitoring whether the presence of nitrosylated proteins, such as S-nitrosoproteins, in a biological sample using fluorescence detection. The present invention further describes a method which can both quantify and identify the nature of nitrosylated proteins, which method is useful for monitoring both normal and disease states, in the development and screening of potential therapeutic drug species.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of detecting an S-nitrosothiol in a sample which includes treating the sample with a transition metal such as copper (I) and cysteine in the presence of a substance capable of blocking interactions between iron-containing compounds and NO and detecting the generated NO.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of treating asthma by raising the pH of the airways of an individual. The effect can be mediated directly by administering a pharmaceutically acceptable basic solution or alternatively, the effect can be mediated by enhancing the activity of glutaminase.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to the treatment of cystic fibrosis that involves the administration of a nitrosylating agent, such as S-nitrosoglutathione or ethyl nitrite.

Abstract: Composition comprising nitrosylating agent is administered to a patient having cystic fibrosis.

Abstract: Asthma is ameliorated, and mild or moderate asthma is prevented from progressing to more severe asthma by administering agents which prevent and/or accommodate for S-nitrosothiol breakdown. The method reduces requirements for systemic corticosteroids for the treatment of severe asthma.
