Abstract: High load concentrate compositions comprising metaflumizone, an optional bridging agent, a surfactant, and a suitable carrier solvent. These compositions may be topically administered to animals, and are useful for preventing or treating ectoparasitic infestations in warm-blooded animals for prolonged periods of time. Additionally, they may be further diluted to provide other types of formulations useable for both topical and oral administration.
Abstract: This invention provides a method of treating pain in a mammal that includes administering to a mammal in need of such treatment a pain treating effective amount of a compound of the formula (I): where R1 is H, alkyl or phenylalkyl; R2 is H, alkyl, alkenyl or phenylalkyl; or R1 and R2 taken together as Z are —CH2C—H2—, —CH2C(R6)(R7)CH2— or —CH2C(R8)(R9)—C(R10)(R11)CH2—, where R6, R8 and R10 are, independently, H, alkyl or hydroxyl and R7, R9 and R11 are, independently, H or alkyl; A is alkylene or alkenylene; X is CO2R3, P(O)(OR4)(OR5), 3,5-dioxo-1,2,4-oxadiazolidin-2-yl or 5-tetrazolyl in which R3, R4 and R5 are, independently, H or alkyl, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions for treating pain containing a pain treating effective amount of the compound of formula (I).

Abstract: The expression of the lipidated form of the peptidoglycan-associated protein (PAL) of gram-negative bacteria is achieved through the use of a plasmid containing a tightly regulated promoter. A bacterial host cell is transformed, transduced or transfected with such a plasmid. The host cell is then cultured under conditions such that the lipidated recombinant PAL is expressed. The lipidated recombinant PAL is included in an antigenic composition administered to a mammalian host to immunize against a gram-negative bacterium.
Abstract: The present invention provides a compound of formula I and the use thereof for the inhibition of bacterial cell wall biosynthesis and for the therapeutic treatment of bacterial infection or disease in a patient in need thereof. The present invention also provides the use of the formula I compound for the control of ecto- or endoparasites in homeothermic animals.

Abstract: Molecules having potential biological activity, particularly peptoids, that are conjugated to solid phase supports, spacer groups, and/or ligation moieties, and methods of their preparation, are described. In some instances, the molecules of the invention are made entirely by solid phase synthesis. In other instances, the spacer groups are hydrophilic and compositions containing them, and to solid phase synthesis of varied structure peptoids using chemoselective ligation moieties.
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for delivering cytokines to the central nervous system and the lymphatic system by way of a tissue innervated by the trigeminal nerve and/or olfactory nerve. Cytokines include tumor necrosis factors, interleukins, interferons, particularly interferon-? and its muteins such as IFN-?ser17. Such a method of delivery can be useful in the treatment of central nervous system disorders, brain disorders, proliferative, viral, and/or autoimmune disorders such as Sjogren's disorder.
