Abstract: The present invention is directed to previously identified inhibitors of cAMP efflux (ICE) and their use in treating/masking body odor, inhibiting, reducing and/or eliminating hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), tanning skin or protecting skin before and/or after exposure to the sun as well as for treating certain skin conditions, in one embodiment, the invention provides a method for inhibiting body odor, a condition that is characterized by an unpleasant odor from the products of the microbial sweat degradation. By inhibiting the efflux of the precursor compounds that are degraded, novel compounds are capable of preventing unwanted odors. Deodorant compositions that employ this new approach for the control of bodily odor are provided, ICE compounds can also be used as components, of cosmetic formulations including tanning and after-sun formulations, formulations for skin conditions as described herein and other cosmetic formulations.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the invention provides a method of inhibiting cAMP efflux and increasing intracellular cAMP in a subject who suffers from, or who is at risk of developing, a cancer by administering to the subject a therapeutically-effective amount of a cAMP efflux inhibitor. Novel compounds, pharmaceutical compositions, diagnostics and screening methods are also provided.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to integrin ligand discovery and to a method of integrin ligand discovery base upon induction of ligand-induced epitopes. Such ligands have the potential to be active agent as anti-inflammatory, anti-angiogenesis and/or anti-thrombotic agents and for the treatment of integrin mediated diseases and/or conditions.

Abstract: The invention provides methods of treating nitric oxide/cGMP pathway-cell adhesion disorders and related pharmaceutical compositions, diagnostics, screening techniques and kits. In one embodiment, the invention relates to a method for down-regulating ?4?1-integrin affinity and inhibiting and reversing adhesion formation in patients or subjects in need using a nitric oxide donor.
