Abstract: Provided herein are methods of inducing liver regeneration in a subject diagnosed with a liver disorder. The method comprises administering a Plasma Protein Fraction (PPF) to the subject. In certain embodiments, the PPF comprises between 83% and 95% albumin in relation to total proteins. The PPF can be produced from plasma obtained from young individuals, for example, humans 40 years of age or younger.
Abstract: The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing one or more compounds of formula 1 wherein R1 is H, C1-6-alkyl, C0-4-alkyl-C3-6-cycloalkyl, C1-6-haloalkyl; R2 is H, C1-6-alkyl; X is an anion selected from the group consisting of chloride or ½ dibenzoyltartrate; j is 1 or 2; and processes for the preparation thereof, and their use to treat diseases connected with the CCR3 receptor.
Abstract: Methods of improving visual endpoints related to retina-associated disease with CCR3 modulating agents are provided. An example of such an endpoint is visual acuity. Retina-associated diseases upon which visual acuity and other visual endpoints may be improved include retinopathy of prematurity, age-related macular degeneration, central retinal vein occlusion, and diabetic retinopathy.
