Abstract: An O-acyl product derived from glucose which may be obtained by partial or total esterification of glucose and of vitamin F, comprising a mixture of esters, for example, monoesters, of glucose and of at least one acid chosen from linoleic acid, oleic acid, palmitic acid and stearic acid, compositions, for example, cosmetic and pharmaceutical compositions, comprising this novel derivative, and their use for improving the condition of head hair and/or other hairs, and, for example, for reducing and/or impeding the loss of head hair and/or other hairs, and/or for inducing and/or stimulating hair growth, as well as a process for preparing O-acyl derivatives mainly in position 6 of glucose, comprising preparing a mixed anhydride by reacting a carboxylic acid with a trimethylacetyl halide, followed by reacting said mixed anhydride formed with glucose.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use in a composition for caring for human hair or eyelashes of an effective amount of a pyridinedicarboxylic acid derivative of general formula (I) or of one of its salts, 1

Abstract: The present invention relates to a use, in cosmetic preparations, of prostaglandin EP-2 and/or EP-4 receptor antagonists to attenuate, reduce or stop the growth of head hair and other hairs, and to the cosmetic treatment process using these compositions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to cosmetic compositions comprising a biotin derivative and/or an agent for complexing this derivative and, covalently bonded to one of these two compounds or to both of them, at least one active agent other than dyes.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use, as active principle, in a physiologically acceptable medium, in a composition, of an effective amount of at least one compound of the indolecarboxylic family, this compound or these compositions being intended to treat disorders associated with overactivity of 5&agr;-reductase. These compounds or the compositions containing them are more particularly intended to treat androgen-dependent disorders such as, for example, seborrhoea and/or acne and/or hirsutism and/or androgenic alopecia. The invention also relates to novel compounds of the indolecarboxylic family and to compositions-containing them.

Abstract: Indolecarboxylic acid compounds and derivatives thereof are useful for treating seboarhea and the dermatitides associated therewith, especially acne and/or blackheads and/or comedones.

Abstract: Indolecarboxylic acid compounds and derivatives thereof, notably 4,6-dimethoxyindole-2-carboxylic acid and derivatives thereof, are especially useful for inducing/stimulating mammalian hair growth and/or preventing/retarding mammalian hair loss.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a use, in cosmetic preparations, of prostaglandin EP-2 and/or EP-4 receptor antagonists to attenuate, reduce or stop the growth of head hair and other hairs, and to the cosmetic treatment process using these compositions.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of prostaglandin EP-3 receptor antagonists as cosmetic agents for attenuating, reducing or stopping the loss of head hair and other hairs.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a use of prostaglandin E2 (EP-3) receptor agonists to attenuate, reduce or stop the growth of head hair and other hairs, in cosmetic preparations, and to the cosmetic treatment process using these compositions.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of non-prostanoic agonists of prostaglandin EP-2 and/or EP-4 receptors as cosmetic agents for attenuating, reducing or stopping the loss of head hair and other hairs.

Abstract: A computer system includes instruction fetch circuitry for dispatching fetched instructions to a pipelined execution unit, data memory access circuitry and emulator circuitry for use in debug operations, said emulator circuitry including error indicating circuitry to indicate an error in a data memory access operation, snoop circuitry for snooping memory access operation in said data memory access circuitry, synchronising means for synchronising snooped data memory access addresses with respective program counts for the instructions associated with said access addresses, memory mapped storage circuitry responsive to a data memory access error to indicate the data memory address associated with the error, whereby the emulator circuitry may use the data memory address in a subsequent operation to obtain from the synchronising means the specific program count associated with the memory access operation in which the error occurred.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of hydroxystilbenes for dyeing, to ready-to-use dye compositions comprising them, to a dyeing process using them and to a multi-compartment device containing the compositions used in the processes of the invention.

Abstract: The invention concerns the use, as main active principle in a composition or for preparing a pharmaceutical composition, of an effective amount of at least a 2-amino-alkane polyol, or one of its derivatives for treating skin ageing signs.

Abstract: A computer system with enhanced integrated debug facilities is described. According to one aspect, step-by-step execution of an instruction sequence is implemented where each instruction is guarded. If, after guard resolution, the instruction is committed, a divert routine is executed. If the instruction is not committed, the next instruction in the sequence is executed.
