Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for inhibiting, preventing, ameliorating, reducing, or treating cardiovascular diseases, for example, stroke, traumatic brain injury, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and/or diseases associated with fibrin activity or dysfunction. These methods and compositions involve antibodies that can bind to Galectin-3 and inhibit, prevent, ameliorate, reduce, or treat the cardiovascular diseases in a patient by reducing inflammation and/or inhibiting oligomerization of proteins associated with pathology such as amyloid beta or fibrin.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are anti-RGMa antibodies and methods of using these antibodies to treat multiple sclerosis, including relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis such as relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis or relapsing-secondary progressive multiple sclerosis.

Abstract: An embodiment relates to a selective agonist of neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor ?7 subtype, a pharmaceutically suitable salt, prodrug, or a metabolite thereof, for the prevention and treatment of diseases and conditions that are mediated by nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, and methods of use thereof. Another embodiment is a method of administering a pharmaceutically effective amount of a selective agonist of neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor ?7 subtype, a pharmaceutically suitable salt, prodrug, or a metabolite thereof, to a mammal in need thereof.

Abstract: This application is directed to a-neuronal nicotinic receptor agonists selective for ?7-subtype that are useful for improving cognition impairment in patients having schizophrenia, a schizophreniform disorder or a related schizophrenia spectrum psychotic disorder. Compounds and compositions containing such compounds, and methods of using such compound and compositions are described herein.
