Abstract: Two chemical genera of pyrazolylphenyl and pyrrolylphenyl derivatives are disclosed. They have the general formula: In these compounds ring (a) is a pyrazole or pyrrole; Q is selected from the group consisting of a direct bond, O, S, SO, SO2, NR1, CH2, CF2, and C(O); HET is a 4-7-membered saturated nitrogenous heterocycle; and taken together ZW is H or Z is (CH2)1-10 in which one or two (CH2) may optionally be replaced by —O—, —NR1—, —SO—, —S(O)2—, —C(?O)— or —C?O(NH)—; and W is hydrogen, acyl, hydroxyl, carboxyl, amino, carboxamido, aminoacyl, —COOalkyl, —CHO, heterocyclyl, substituted aryl or substituted heterocyclyl. The compounds are inhibitors of LTA4H (leukotriene A4 hydrolase). They are useful for the treatment and prevention and prophylaxis of inflammatory diseases and disorders.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a chemical genus of 3-(triaryl)-2-aminopropanol derivative inhibitors of LTA4H (leukotriene A4 hydrolase) useful for the treatment and prevention of inflammatory diseases and disorders.

Abstract: An imaging system for use in a medical intervention procedure is disclosed. A first image acquisition system of a first modality employing a catheter at an anatomical region of a patient is configured to produce a first image of the anatomical region using fluoroscopy, the first image comprising a set of fluoroscopy projection images. A second image acquisition system of a second different modality is configured to generate a 3D model of the anatomical region. An anatomical reference system is common to both the first and second image acquisition systems. A processing circuit is configured to process executable instructions for registering the 3D model with the fluoroscopy image in response to the common reference system and discernible parameters associated with the catheter in both the first and second image acquisition systems.

Abstract: The present invention involves a process for preparing substituted indoles, such as DTSI involving two sequential cross-coupling reactions.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to cyclic substituted fused pyrrolocarbazoles and isoindolones. The invention also is directed to methods for making and using the cyclic substituted fused pyrrolocarbazoles and isoindolones.

Abstract: An across firewall communication system and method is used with a conventional firewall positioned between a conventional intranet and an outside network, such as the public Internet. The across firewall communication system provides enhanced communication between one or more inside devices on the intranet and one or more outside devices on the outside network. The across firewall communication system addresses issues commonly raised in today's Internet environment where some devices attempt to communicate with other devices that are isolated behind firewalls and network address translators (NATs).

Abstract: This invention is directed to compounds and compositions that have biological properties useful for modulating HGF/SF activity. In certain embodiments, said compounds and compositions may be used in the treatment and prophylaxis of cancer or other dysproliferative diseases, as well as inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis.
