Abstract: The invention relates to antisense oligonucleotidic sequences (ODN) against Smad7 suitably modified, and their uses in medical field as therapeutic biological agents, in particular in the treatment of chronic inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds comprising the general formula (I), in which R1 and R2, which may be identical or different, are selected from the group comprising —H or a linear or branched alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms or together form an aromatic or aliphatic ring with 5 or 6 atoms; Y and Z, which may be identical or different, are selected from the group comprising —H, —OH, —COOH, —OR3, —CH(OR3)COOH, in which R3 is selected from H, phenyl, benzyl, —CF3 or —CF2CF3, vinyl, allyl and a linear or branched alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for treating/and or preventing colorectal cancer using a specific inhibitor of SMAD7 expression or function. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions containing an inhibitor of SMAD7 for treating and/or preventing colorectal cancer and manufacture of medicaments containing an inhibitor of SMAD7 to be used in treating and/or preventing colorectal cancer.

Abstract: The present invention provides pharmaceutical formulations for oral administration of antisense oligonucleotides, such as antisense oligonucleotides against SMAD7. The pharmaceutical formulations can be used to treat Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis and chronic inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract: The present invention is directed in part to methods of preventing or reducing colon carcinogenesis comprising administering to a patient at risk of colorectal cancer, a pharmaceutical preparation comprising disclosed chemopreventive. In another aspect, the invention is directed to methods attenuation of oxygen free radicals comprising administrating to a patient in need thereof an antioxidant effective amount of a compound represented by formula I, IIa or IIb as disclosed herein.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for treating hair related disorders, including compounds that may be specific or modulate PPAR receptors.

Abstract: Methods for monitoring whether a subject will be sensitive or resistant to treatment with an anti-SMAD7 therapy are disclosed. The methods are based on the determining of the amount of CCR9+ FOXP3+ T cells, CCR9+ IFN-gamma+ T cells, CCR9+ IL17A+ T cells, FOXP3+ T cells, IFN-gamma+ T cells, and/or IL17A+ T cells in a sample from the subject. Measurement of T cell populations may be determined by flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and/or ELISA.

Abstract: The present invention relates to treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (e.g., Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) using antisense nucleotides that are directed against polymorphic forms (e.g., those containing single nucleotide polymorphisms) of the SMAD7 mRNA. The invention thus relates to treatment methods for subjects having polymorphic forms of SMAD7 and antisense oligonucleotides that specifically target SMAD7 mRNA transcripts containing polymorphisms.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed in part to methods of treating fibrosis, e.g., hepatic fibrosis and/or intestinal fibrosis, comprising administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount of a disclosed compound.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for treating lactose intolerance, including compounds that may be specific or modulate PPAR? receptors.
