Abstract: A method of assessing growth hormone deficiency in a human or animal subject, the method comprising administering orally to the subject EP 1572 (Formula I) or EP 1573 (Formula II), obtaining a post-administration sample from the subject, determining the level of growth hormone in the sample and assessing whether the level of growth hormone in the sample is indicative of growth hormone deficiency in the subject. Preferably, the GH level in the sample is measured by immunoassay. Also disclosed is a kit of parts constituting a diagnostic kit comprising: (a) EP 1572 or EP 1573 formulated for oral administration; and (b) means for determining the level of growth hormone in a sample.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel tetrahydrocarbazole compounds according to formula (I) as ligands of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) which are useful in the treatment and/or prophylaxis of physiological and/or pathological conditions in mammals mediated by GPCR or of physiological and/or pathological conditions which can be treated by modulation of these receptors.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel triazole derivatives with improved receptor activity and bioavailability properties as ghrelin analogue ligands of growth hormone secretagogue receptors according to formula (I) that are useful in the treatment or prophylaxis of physiological and/or pathophysiological conditions in mammals, preferably humans, that are mediated by GHS receptors.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel tetrahydrocarbazole compounds according to formula (I) as ligands of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) which are useful in the treatment and/or prophylaxis of physiological and/or pathological conditions in mammals mediated by GPCR or of physiological and/or pathological conditions which can be treated by modulation of these receptors.

Abstract: A method of treating infertility disorders by 1) administering an LH-RH antagonist, preferably Cetrorelix, in amounts to selectively suppress endogenous LH but not FSH secretion and 2) inducing follicle growth by administration of exogenous gonadotropin. The selective suppression OF LH allows FSH secretion to be at natural level S thereby not affecting individual estrogen development. The LH-RH antagonist can be given as a single or dual subcutaneous dose in the range of 1 mg to 10 mg, preferably 2 mg-6 mg. In multiple dosing posology, LH-RH antagonist can be administered subcutaneously in an amount in the range of 0.1 to 0.5 mg of LH-RH antagonist/day . LH-RH antagonist is applied starting cycle day 1 to 10, preferably on day 4 to 8, and ovulation can be induced between day 9 and 20 of the menstruation cycle by administering rec. LH, native LH-RH, LH-RH agonist or by HCG. In addition rec.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel tetrahydrocarbazole derivatives which have improved properties and which can be employed as inhibitors of GPCRs. This results in the possibility of using the novel compounds to treat pathological conditions whose severity depends on the pathobiochemical effect of GPCRs. The compounds of the invention act in particular via an antagonistic inhibition of the LHRH receptor. The invention further provides medicaments which comprise one or more of the novel compounds as active ingredient. The medicaments are suitable in particular to be employed in an oral dosage form for a mammal, in particular a human.

Abstract: The invention relates to a microorganism as a carrier of nucleotide sequences coding for antigens and protein toxins comprising the following components: (I) at least one nucleotide sequence coding for at least one complete or partial antigen of at least one wild-type or mutated protein; and (II) at least one nucleotide sequence coding for at least one protein toxin and/or at least one protein toxin subunit; and (III) a) at least one nucleotide sequence coding for at least one transport system which enables the expression of the expression products of component (I) and component (II) on the outer surface of the microorganism and/or enables the secretion of the expression products of component (I) and component (II); and/or coding for at least one signal sequence which enables the secretion of the expression products of component (I) and component (II); and/or (III) b) optionally, at least one nucleotide sequence coding for at least one protein for lysing the microorganism in the cytosol of mammalian cells and
