Abstract: Carbamathione agent protects brain tissue exposed to a cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury, and minimizes the size of infarcts that develop as a result of the injury.

Abstract: Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF; a stem cell enhancer and facilitator), DETC-MeSO (a glutamate receptor partial antagonist and anti-excitotoxicity agent), and sulindac (a potent anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory agent) each can protect brain tissue exposed to a cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury, and minimize the size of infarcts that develop as a result of the injury. When administered in combination, these agents are effective at protecting brain tissue and minimizing the size of an infarct resulting from the injury at much lower concentrations compared to using a single agent.

Abstract: A method of preventing degeneration of photoreceptor cells in an eye of a mammalian subject includes the step of administering pharmaceutical composition comprising a sulindac agent to the eye of the subject.

Abstract: The invention provides compositions comprising sulindac, R-epimer sulindac, S-epimer sulindac, derivatives, metabolites, and structural analogs thereof which protect normal cells against damage caused by solar rays, oxidative damage, environmental factors, diseases and organisms.

Abstract: The NSAID, sulindac and/or its metabolites and derivatives, in combination with hydrogen peroxide or another oxidizing agent, such as arsenic trioxide that generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), significantly enhances the killing of cancer cells. This effect occurs at concentrations of each compound that individually have little or no activity directed against cancer cells. A skin cream has been developed and used to treat skin cancer and precancerous skin growths that effectively removes the lesions with no effect on surrounding normal skin.
