Abstract: Disclosed is a method for treating or preventing nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) in a subject that includes administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a Nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) inducer, thereby treating or preventing the NDI in the subject. The Nrf2 inducer may be a fumarate, a nitro fatty acid, a bardoxolone or sulforaphane. Also disclosed is a pharmaceutical composition comprising (i) a Nuclear factor-crythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) inducer and (ii) lithium or a lithium salt.

Abstract: A method comprising co-administering to a subject having cancer, suspected of having cancer, or at risk of developing cancer: a therapeutically effective amount of at least one compound (a) selected from (a)(i) a nitroalkene fatty acid, (a)(ii) an unsaturated fatty acid having an electron withdrawing group, a leaving group, and a carbon-carbon double bond disposed between the electron withdrawing group and the leaving group, (a)(iii) a thiolated nitro fatty acid, or (a)(iv) a dicarboxylic acid compound containing an electron withdrawing group; and a therapeutically effective amount of at least one anti-neoplastic agent (b), wherein the cancer is a cancer with hereditary etiology of defects in DNA repair genes, a cancer with a high rate of spontaneous genomic instability, a cancer that responds well to DNA damaging agent(s), or a cancer that responds well to a combination of DNA damaging agent(s) with immunotherapy.

Abstract: Compounds of formula I and their metabolites are potent mediators of an inflammatory response: where a, b, c, d, e, f, V, W, X, Y, Ra, Ra?, Rb, Rb?, Rc, and Rc? are defined herein.

Abstract: Nitro oleic acid and related metabolites are agonists of PPAR-?. Surprisingly, nitro oleic acid is a more potent agonist of PPAR-?, relative to nitro linoleic acid. Thus, nitro oleic acid and its metabolites, as well as their pharmaceutically acceptable salts and prodrug forms, are candidate therapeutics for the treatment of type-2 diabetes, which results from insulin resistance accompanying the improper functioning of PPAR-?.
