Abstract: Coenzyme A-independent transacylase is required for the release of free arachidonic acid, and the production of arachidonic acid metabolites and platelet activation factor. Blocking of this enzyme inhibits the production of these inflammatory mediators and will be of therapeutic utility in a broad range of allergic and inflammatory diseases and disorders. Compounds are described herein which inhibit the action of CoA-IT and are therefore useful in the treatment of disease states caused thereby.

Abstract: A toothbrush having a handle and at one end having a bristle-bearing head which is in the form of one or more segments which are flexibly and/or resiliently linked to each other. Optionally, the head may also be flexibly and/or resiliently linked to the handle. The grooves between the linked segments of the head are wholly or partly filled with an elastomeric material. In one aspect, the bristle-bearing head of the toothbrush is attached to the handle by a frame which wholly or partly surrounds the head and is an integral extension of the handle.
Abstract: The invention provides compounds of general formula (I). The compounds have hemoregulatory activities and can be used to stimulate haematopoiesis and for the prevention and treatment of viral, fungal and bacterial infectious diseases.
