Abstract: Disclosed are phytoecdysones and semisynthetic derivatives of phytoecdysones, intended to be used in treating impairment of the respiratory function in mammals, in particular in the context of a viral infection and more particularly during an infection by a coronavirus.

Abstract: Disclosed are 20-hydroxyecdysone and the derivatives thereof, intended for use in the treatment of a neuromuscular disease such as spinal muscular atrophy or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or more particularly in the treatment of a specific disorder of the motor neurons causing alterations in the muscular function occurring in the context of these neuromuscular diseases.

Abstract: Disclosed is chemical compounds C that are derivatives of norbixin and have tropism for the eye, and are intended to be used in the treatment of eye diseases in mammals, in particular in the context of altering the retinal pigment epithelium and more particularly in the context of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and Stargardt's disease.

Abstract: The invention relates to 20-hydroxyecdysone and the derivatives thereof, for use in the treatment of genetic myopathies.

Abstract: The invention relates to 20-hydroxyecdysone and the derivatives thereof, for use in the treatment of genetic myopathies.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for preparing an extract from a preparation of approximately 90% pure 20-hydroxyecdysone that comprises the following steps: g) Hot dissolution of approximately 90% pure 20-hydroxyecdysone in methanol, filtration and partial concentration, h) Addition of 1 to 5 volumes of acetone, i) Cooling to a temperature of between 0 and 5° C. while stirring, j) Filtration of the obtained precipitate, k) Successive rinses with acetone and water, and l) Drying.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for the treatment, prevention and/or stabilisation of ARMD, Stargardt disease, pigmentary retinopathy and/or diabetic retinopathy, including the application of a 3-deoxyanthocyanidin of formula (I) in which R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, R8, R9, R10, R11 and X? are as defined, with the condition that at least one of R1, R2, R3, R4 or R5 is a hydroxyl and at least one of R8, R9, R10 or R11 is a hydroxyl.

Abstract: Chemical compounds and the therapeutic use thereof, in particular for improving muscular quality in mammals. More particularly, a method of improving muscular quality in sarcopenic mammals and treating and/or preventing sarcopenia using the chemical compounds and, in particular, sarcopenic obesity and the associated complications and/or pathologies thereof, such as loss of strength, muscle mass, performance and of physical and movement capacity. Also, a method of improving muscle quality in obese mammals and treating and/or preventing of obesity and associated complications and/or pathologies, advantageously type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome, using the chemical compounds.

Abstract: A method of photoprotecting cells of the retinal pigment epithelium (EPR) in mammals using a composition having norbixin. The norbixin is produced by purification from an extract of Bixa orellana seeds.
