Abstract: The use of an ileal bile acid transport (IBAT) inhibitor and the use of a combination of an IBAT inhibitor and an HMG CoA reductase inhibitor in the treatment of a warm-blooded animal, such as man, with hypercholesterolemia and/or other forms of dyslipidaemia wherein said hypercholesterolemia and dyslipidaemias are characterized by defects in lipoproteins or their receptors is described.

Abstract: An oral pharmaceutical formulation comprising an inhibitor compound of the ileal bile acid transport (IBAT inhibitor), an HMG Co-A reductase inhibitor and a therapeutically acceptable carrier characterised in that the formulation is designed to deliver the IBAT inhibitor in the ileum and the HMG Co A reductase inhibitor non-specifically into the GI tract. The IBAT inhibitor compound and the HMG Co-A reductase inhibitor can also be administered in combination with a bile acid binder to alleviate possible side effects of therapy with IBAT inhibitor compounds, such as for instance diarrhoea. The bile acid binder may be formulated for colon release.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for screening and/or testing in vitro of synthetic or natural compounds for antioxidant potency. Further disclosed is the use of 3,3',5,5'-tetra-tert-butyl-4,4'-bisphenol and pharmaceutical preparations thereof in restoring endothelial function.
