Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of treating motor neuron diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) using levosimendan or its active metabolite (II) as an active ingredient. Levosimendan or its active metabolite (II) are able to relieve the loss of skeletal muscle strength or function associated with motor neuron diseases.

Abstract: Heparin-like compounds inhibit collagen-induced platelet aggregation in flowing whole blood. The compounds share properties displayed by native mast-cell derived heparin proteoglycans (HEP-PG) and/or heparin glycosaminoglycan (HEP-GAG) molecules. The compounds are useful in prevention and treatment of severe vascular disorders including arterial thrombosis.

Abstract: The present invention is related to heparin-like compounds characterized by their capacity of inhibiting collagen-induced platelet aggregation in flowing whole blood and their use for prophylactic treatment of arterial thrombosis associated with vascular or microvascular injury and interventions. Said properties are related to a high coupling density of negatively charged heparin or heparin-like glycosaminoglycan molecules, present in multiple heparin or heparin-like glycosaminoglycans as well as in proteoglycans containing said multiple heparin or heparin-like glycosaminoglycans or lower-molecular-weight heparin or heparin-like glycosaminoglycans connected directly or through spacer/linker molecules to globular core molecules. Heparin-like compounds, with said properties are obtainable from mammalian mast cells, by tissue extraction or cell cultivation.
