  • Patent number: 6329357
    Abstract: A method for treatment of diseases caused by deficiency or overproduction of the vitamin D3 metabolites by administering analogs of 1&agr;,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. These analogs are selective agonists or antagonists for the genomic and rapid nongenomic cellular responses. A pharmaceutical composition comprising 1&agr;,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 analog.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 10, 2000
    Date of Patent: December 11, 2001
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: Anthony W. Norman, William H. Okamura
  • Patent number: 6307075
    Abstract: Novel analogs of 1&agr;,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 which are selective agonists for the genomic responses or agonists or antagonists for the rapid cellular responses in a wide array of diseases in which 1&agr;,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 or its prodrugs are involved. Novel analogs have general formulae represented by compounds of groups I-V. A method for treatment and prevention of diseases connected with the endocrine system.
