Abstract: A method of providing access of a mobile terminal to an IP network includes establishing a security association between the mobile terminal and a first security gateway of a first router in said plurality of routers. The mobile terminal is provided access to the IP network via the first router, and the data exchanged between the mobile terminal and the first router is encapsulated by using the security association. The security association is made available to at least one second router having a second security gateway. The mobile terminal is provided access to the IP network via said the second router, and data exchanged between the mobile terminal and the second router is encapsulated by using the same security association. Establishing the security association includes assigning a Security Parameter Index that identifies univocally the first security gateway and the security association.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of 5-(2-amino-pyrimidin-4-yl)-2-aryl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxamides and to the useful intermediate compounds of such process. The process allows to obtain the desired products in high yields and purity. The synthesis is starting from the coupling of an acetal with a beta-ketoester; the resultant compound is acetylated and then reacted with a dialkyl acetal of N,N-dimethylformamide to give an intermediate which is cyclized to 5-(2-amino-pyrimidin-4-yl)-2-aryl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic ester; the carboxylic ester is then hydrolyzed and the resultant carboxylic acid is finally condensed with an appropriate form of ammonia to give the desired carboxamide. The compounds prepared according to the process of the invention are endowed with protein kinase inhibiting activity and, more particularly, Cdc7 or Cdc7/Cdks inhibiting activity.

Abstract: The object of the present invention relates to the new and surprising use of sulfated hyaluronic acid (HAS) as regulator agent of the cytokine activity (pro- and anti-inflammatory) and consequently the use of HAS for the preparation of a new medicine for topic use in the prevention and treatment of pathologies associated with the activation and/or deficiency of cytokines of a pro- and anti-inflammatory nature. The Applicant has in fact discovered the exclusive capacity of HAS in modulating the activity of these particular proteins, it has studied the action mechanism and demonstrated the substantial difference between the different sulfated types known in the state of the art, but above all it has demonstrated an unexpectedly high activity of HAS vs different types and strains of Herpes virus, Cytomegalovirus and the virus of vesicular stomatitis. Finally, a further object of the present invention is the use of HAS as a skin absorption promoter of drugs of an anti-inflammatory nature.
