Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel compound as an mTOR inhibitor and a use thereof and, more specifically, to a novel compound represented by formula 1 that exhibits mTOR inhibitory activity and a pharmaceutical composition comprising same as an active ingredient for preventing or treating brain diseases associated with an mTOR pathway.

Abstract: A composition for promoting longitudinal bone growth, according to the present invention, promotes the proliferation of the chondrocytes and the differentiation of the osteoblasts and has effects of simultaneously increasing longitudinal bone length and thickness (bone density), and thus has an advantage of being widely prescribable to various age groups, thereby being usable as a pharmaceutical composition for promoting the growth of longitudinal bone length and thickness. An indirubin derivative according to the present invention has prevention or treatment effects through oral administration. In addition, unlike conventional therapeutic agents, the pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating bone diseases of the present invention is a stable compound, which is known to be substantially noncytotoxic to the human body, and is a material of which adverse effects have not been identified and has excellent treatment effects for bone diseases and osteogenesis imperfecta.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel compound, and a composition for preventing or treating of respiratory disease comprising the novel compound, E- or Z-isomer thereof, optical isomer thereof, a mixture of two isomers thereof, precursor thereof, pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or solvate thereof as an active ingredient.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel compound as an mTOR inhibitor and a use thereof and, more specifically, to a novel compound represented by formula 1 that exhibits mTOR inhibitory activity and a pharmaceutical composition comprising same as an active ingredient for preventing or treating brain diseases associated with an mTOR pathway.

Abstract: A composition for promoting longitudinal bone growth, according to the present invention, promotes the proliferation of the chondrocytes and the differentiation of the osteoblasts and has effects of simultaneously increasing longitudinal bone length and thickness (bone density), and thus has an advantage of being widely prescribable to various age groups, thereby being usable as a pharmaceutical composition for promoting the growth of longitudinal bone length and thickness. An indirubin derivative according to the present invention has prevention or treatment effects through oral administration and has an excellent competitive price unlike conventional hormone-based therapeutic agents.

Abstract: A novel benzoxazole derivative of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is effective for inhibiting 5-lipoxygenase which is useful for preventing or treating leukotriene-related diseases. The prevention also provides a pharmaceutical composition containing same and a method for preventing or treating leukotriene-related diseases.

Abstract: A compound of the formula (I) in which R1 is —OR11, —SR11, —SOR11, —SO2R11, —NHR11, or —NR12R13 , and R11, R12, and R13 are as defined broadly in the text. R2 is H, C1-C6alkyl, carbamoyl, or an ester group. R3 is thienyl, pyridyl optionally substituted by halogen or C1-C6alkoxy; naphthyl optionally substituted by C1-C6alkoxy; dioxane fused phenyl; dioxacyclopentane fused phenyl; or optionally substituted phenyl. Y is CH or N. A process for preparing such compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and a method of treating asthma using them are also disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: A compound of the formula (I) wherein R1 is —X—R4, an optionally substituted heterocyclic residue, an optionally substituted carbocyclic residue or optionally substituted condensed ring moiety; X is CR5R6, O, S, SO, SO2 or NR7; Y is CH or N; R2 is H, an optionally substituted C1-C10 alkyl,etc.; R3 is an optionally substituted aryl, or an optionally substituted heteroaryl, etc.; R4 is an optionally substituted aryl, an optionally substituted heteroaryl, etc.; R5, R6, and R7 can be identical or different and represent H, an optionally substituted C1-C10 alkyl, etc. The compound has an excellent anti-allergic activity and the like.

Abstract: Novel sulfur-containing analogs of 1&agr;,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 are provided. These analogs are synthesized in a convergent manner by joining A-ring and C,D ring fragments. Each analog with 1&agr;,3&bgr;-substituent stereochemistry shows a pharmacologically desirable combination of high antiproliferative and high transcriptional activities in vitro and also low calcemic activity in vivo.
