Andre Arigony Souto has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8912234
    Abstract: The present invention is a method for obtaining a formulation of resveratrol and rice bran oil. The resulting product in the form of an oil or solid proves to increase the therapeutic potential of resveratrol by the synergistic action of the components of the rice oil. The product obtained through the method of the invention is an active principle which, when incorporated in nutraceutical and/or pharmaceutical compositions, provides antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, cardioprotective, neuroprotective and/or cancer chemoprotective action, besides protecting against infections and ischemia, reducing obesity, and preventing illnesses of old age.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 10, 2010
    Date of Patent: December 16, 2014
    Assignee: UNIAO Brasileria de Educacao e Assistencia—Mantenedora da PUCRS
    Inventors: Andre Arigony Souto, Maria Martha Campos, Fernanda Bueno Morrone, Rodrigo Braccini Madeira da Silva, Izaque de Sousa Maciel
  • Patent number: 8476248
    Abstract: The present invention provides products having resveratrol with high water solubility and nutraceutical and/or phytotherapic compositions having said substances. The processes for obtaining them include the solubility increase of the polyphenol corresponding to a resveratrol compound, preferably trans-resveratrol in water, by its complexation with cyclodextrin under specific conditions that favor thermodynamic equilibrium. The products of the invention present high solubility and purity in aqueous medium, being, therefore, useful to prepare nutraceutical compositions (pharmaceutical and/or alimentary) with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antidiabetics, cardioprotective, neuroprotective, chemoprotective activities; besides protecting against infections and ischemia, reducing obesity, and preventing aging.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7977516
    Abstract: Processes for the separation and purification of polyphenol trans-resveratrol and/or anthraquinone emodin from Polygonum cuspidatum and/or Rumex acetosa, by means of solvent selective extraction. Products obtained by this process present high level of purity; being therefore useful in the preparation of nutraceutical (pharmaceutical and/or food) compositions with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, cardioprotective, neuroprotective, chemoprotective activities, besides protecting against infections and ischemia, treating type 1 and 2 diabetes, reducing obesity and preventing aging. Useful phytomedicines for the same therapeutic activity and prepared from the roots and/or rhizomes of Rumex acetosa or from their fractions are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20100112083
    Abstract: A pharmaceutical product and a process for bone regeneration and neoformation, which uses sirtuin modulators such as resveratrol and/or trans-resveratrol resulting in the substantial acceleration in the process of integration of biomaterials to the body, substantially shortening the recovery period of the injured or lost organ.
