Abstract: The present invention relates to methods, pharmaceutical compositions and kits for use in the treatment of Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma. More particularly, the present invention relates to a combination of an interferon, an arsenic compound and a reverse transcriptase inhibitor for the treatment of Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma.

Abstract: The invention disclosed in this document concerns controlling mealybugs.

Abstract: The present invention is related to the composition and methods of manufacture of orally-dissolvable, edible films as a vehicle for the non-invasive administration of nitroglycerin, as well as other therapeutic agents either with or without nitroglycerin, through the mucosal tissues of the oral cavity. The films include a water soluble film-forming polymer such as pullulan. Methods for producing the films are also disclosed.

Abstract: Methods of treating adenocarcinoma cells such as NSCLC cells are disclosed that depend upon the level of functionally active LKB1 expressed in the cancer cells being treated. In one embodiment, the cancer cells express functionally active LKB1 and the method comprises contacting those cells with a LKB1-stimulating amount of a COX-2-specific inhibitor in combination with an inhibiting amount of a specific inhibitor of mTOR. In another embodiment, the cancer cells express about 25 percent or less of the normal, functional LKB1 expressed by non-transformed cells of the same type are contacted with a growth inhibiting amount of an agent that inhibits cellular metabolism and induces energetic stress.

Abstract: The present application relates to pharmaceutical compositions and methods for treatment of urogenital diseases and bone metastasis in a human, which pharmaceutical composition contains an effective amount of arsenous acid alkaline or earth alkaline metal salt and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvant. According to the present invention, the alkaline arsenous acid metal salt is sodium meta-arsenita (AsO2Na) or potassium meta-arsenite (AsO2K). The effective amount of arsenous acid alkaline or earth alkaline metal salt is 0.0001-1500 mg/kg, preferably 1-1000 mg/kg, more preferably 1-150 mg/kg, and most preferably 50-100 mg/kg of body weight/day. The administration form of the pharmaceutical compositions of the invention is preferably oral, such as a tablet, capsule, powder and/or solution with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent or excipient.

Abstract: It is demonstrated in the present invention that G-quadruplex ligands can be used to both shorten telomeres and inhibit telomerase by causing telomere uncapping. The invention relates to compositions and methods of treating cancer stem cells comprising the administration of G-quadruplex ligands, such as 3,11-difluoro-6,8,13-trimethyl-8H-quino[4,3,2-kl]acridinium methosulfate (RHPS4), which can effectively inhibit or reduce the growth of cancer stem cells. The invention also relates to a synergistic effect in inhibiting or reducing the growth cancer stem cells when a G-quadruplex ligand is combined with a mitotic spindle poison, such as paclitaxel, or other agents used in the treatment of cancer and disease. The invention also relates to RHPS4 inducing non-cancerous cell and non-cancerous stem cell proliferation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of arsenic compounds such as sodium meta arsenite (NaAsO2), arsenic trioxide (As2O3), and arsenic hexoxide (As4O6) or combinations thereof, for the treatment of painful, hyperalgesic and/or inflammatory conditions. The present invention also relates to compositions containing the above arsenic compounds for use in the treatment of pain, inflammation and immunological and autoimmune diseases and disorders.

Abstract: The invention concerns the use of novel agents including cell death, and in particular, an agent for overexpression of the PML protein on nuclear bodies, combined with interferons, to induce the death of undesirable cells and simulate an immune reaction.

Abstract: The invention includes a pesticidal compound comprising at least one organic phenolic compound and at least one salt comprising a divalent cation. Preferably, the organic phenolic compound is chosen from Carvacrol, thymol or combinations thereof; and is derived from a natural source, preferably extracted from a member of the family Labiatae or Verbenacea. Preferably the divalent cation is a transition metal salt and more preferably is zinc chloride or zinc sulfate. The invention also includes methods of eradicating, repelling or preventing infestations of pests, including such pests as insects, mites, ova, fungus, or parasites. The methods comprise the steps of preparing a pesticidal compound, combining it with a carrier, and applying it to the affected area.

Abstract: A storage-stable biocidal aerated gel composition comprises from 30 to 97% by weight of water, from 0.2 to 5% by weight of a gelling agent selected from xanthan gum, sodium alginate and neutralised carboxyvinyl polymer from 2 to 5% by weight of a fine particulate, hydrophobic silicone-treated silica having a surface area of from 80 to 300 m2/g and from 0.004 to 20% by weight of a biocide which said composition is in the form of fine particles of an aqueous gel containing the water, gelling agent and the biocide, the surfaces of which fine particles are coated with a coating of the finely particulate hydrophobic silica. The biocidal aerated gel composition can be used to control pests using one or more appropriate biocides in the composition.

Abstract: An insecticide composition is enhanced from the standpoint of its ability to be absorbed by insects, such as red fire ants, particularly dithiophosphate ester pesticides by the addition of a small amount of a water soluble non-aromatic polyorganic acid or salt form thereof such as polyaspartic acid, particularly preferred with a molecular weight in the range of about 3000 to 40,000.
