Abstract: The invention described herein provides a mixture comprising polymer molecules or salts thereof, wherein a polymer molecule in the mixture comprises covalently bound subunits L, K, and M wherein the average molecular weight of the polymer molecules in the mixture is about 50 kDa to about 200 kDa, wherein the mole percentage of subunit M, K and L, relative to the total amount of subunits in the mixture, is about 90.5 to about 96 mol %, about 2.8 to about 7.3 mol %, and about 1.2 to about 2.2 mol %, respectively.

Abstract: N-terminal substituted dipeptide nitriles as defined are useful as inhibitors of cysteine cathepsins, e.g. cathepsins B, K, L and S, and can be used for the treatment of cysteine cathepsin dependent diseases and conditions, including inflammation, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, tumors (especially tumor invasion and tumor metastasis), coronary disease, atherosclerosis (including atherosclerotic plaque rupture and destabilization). Particular dipeptide nitriles are compounds of formula I, or physiologically-acceptable and -cleavable esters or a salts thereof wherein: the symbols are as defined. In particular it has been found that by appropriate choice of groups R, R2, R3, R4, R5, X1, Y and L, the relative selectivity of the compounds as inhibitors of the various cysteine cathepsin types, e.g. cathepsins B, K, L and S may be altered, e.g. to obtain inhibitors which selectively inhibit a particular cathepsin type or combination of cathepsin types.

Abstract: The present invention features rifamycin analogs that can be used as therapeutics for treating or preventing a variety of microbial infections. In one form, the analogs are acetylated at the 25-position, as is rifamycin. In another form, the analogs are deacetylated at the 25-position. In yet other forms, benzoxazinorifamycin, benzthiazinorifamycin, and benzdiazinorifamycin analogs are derivatized at various positions of the benzene ring, including 3?-hydroxy analogs, and/or various fused ring systems with the benzene ring at the 4?,5? or 5?,6? positions.
