  • Patent number: 11896565
    Abstract: Ketogenic compositions including a plurality of beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) salts are formulated to induce or sustain ketosis in a subject to which the ketogenic compositions are administered. The BHB mixed salt is formulated to provide a biologically balanced set of cationic electrolytes and avoid detrimental health effects associated with imbalanced electrolyte ratios. A ketogenic composition includes BHB salts selected from sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium salts. The BHB composition may also include transition metal cations (e.g., zinc or iron), one or more BHB-amino acid salts, one or more ketone precursors, supplements, or other compounds that cause a rise in blood ketone levels without adding more electrolytes to the bloodstream, a short-, medium-, or long-chain fatty acid source, vitamins, minerals, flavorants, or other excipients.

  • Patent number: 11857657
    Abstract: The present invention implements a strategy that combines an enzyme inhibition assay with a chemical dereplication process to identify active plant extracts and the particular compounds—diarylalkanes and/or diarylalkanols within those extracts that specifically inhibit binuclear enzyme function. Included in the present invention are compositions of matter comprised of one or more of diarylalkanes and/or diarylalkanols, which inhibit the activity of binuclear enzymes, particularly tyrosinase and which prevent melanin overproduction. The present invention also provides a method for inhibiting the activity of a binuclear enzyme, particularly tyrosinase and a method for preventing and treating diseases and conditions related to binuclear enzyme function. The present invention further includes a method for preventing and treating melanin overproduction and diseases and conditions of the skin related thereto.

  • Patent number: 11845734
    Abstract: Novel dual 5-LO inhibitors of well validated electrophilic Michael acceptors and nitrogen-heterocycles are presented and designed to maintain specific structural features of currently known dual 5-LO inhibitors and to overcome their drawbacks. The Michael acceptor scaffold will act as a carrier and will provide a stable anchorage via covalent binding to cysteine/histidine residues within the catalytic cleft and/or the surface interface of the 5-LO; whereas, the nitrogen-heterocycles will ensure the access to the Fe(II) catalytic center. These combinations offer potential for more than one mode of iron chelation and 5-LO inhibition.
