Abstract: Provided are thiadiazolidine compounds of formula I wherein R1 is an organic group having at least 8 atoms selected from C or O, which is not linked directly to the N through a —C(O)— and comprising at least an aromatic ring, and their pharmaceutical compositions. These compounds are selective GSK-3 inhibitors and have improved bioavailability. They are useful for the treatment of GSK-3 mediated diseases, among others Alzheimer's disease, type II diabetes, depression and brain injury.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of N-(2-thiazolyl)-amide derivatives of formula (I), for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of a disease in which glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) is involved, especially neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, or non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a compound of formula (I) Having VDCC blocking activity. These compounds are useful for the treatment of a series of human diseases and conditions, especially cognitive or neurodegenerative diseases or conditions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of Collismycin and derivatives thereof as inhibitors of oxidative stress in cells and their use for the preparation of medicaments for the treatment and/or prevention of oxidative stress-induced diseases or conditions, especially neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's Disease and Parkinson's Disease.

Abstract: The invention provides butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors of formula (I), which contain an heterocyclic moiety and a 4 piperidine moiety with a linker in between. The compounds show a very high activity and selectivity towards BuChE, making them useful for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of cognitive disorders and/or neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract: The invention provides compounds having a spiro heterocyclic unit connected through a linker of a certain length to another spiro cycle, an imidazole ring or an amide group. Some of these compounds have been obtained from Aplysinia cavernicola and a mixture of Aplysina fulva and Oceanapia. The compounds exhibit VDCC blocker activity; some also show acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibition activities. Therefore they are useful in the treatment of cognitive and neurodegenerative disorders, such as brain ischemia, stroke, cognitive disorders as senile dementia, cerebrovascular dementia, mild recognition impairment, attention deficit disorder, and/or neurodegenerative dementing disease with aberrant protein aggregations as specially Alzheimers's disease or condition, or prion disease as Creutzfeld-Jakob disease or Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker disease.

Abstract: A cargo handling system for cargo compartments utilizes a cargo container which rides along restraining guide rails and on top of rollers situated within and projecting slightly above structural members which are attached to roller possessing cross tracks. The cargo handling system utilizes an omni directional panel just inside the cargo door to facilitate loading, unloading, and rotational alignment of the cargo containers with the guide rails and rollers. Cargo locks situated within the roller channels and the omni directional panel secure the cargo containers in a longitudinal direction of the aircraft fuselage while a side latch within the omni directional panel secures cargo containers vertically, and in a lateral direction. An automatic anti-rollout restraint prevents the cargo container from rolling out of the aircraft while the cargo containers are being loaded or unloaded. Optionally, a power drive unit automatically moves the cargo containers along the rollers.

Abstract: Provides an electrical connector for the cathodic protection of a metallic surface that is subject to corrosion. A layer of insulative adhesive, layer of conductive adhesive and a suction cup are provided so as to permit the electrical connector to be adhesively secured to the metallic surface. This permits cathodic protection of the metallic surface under all corrosive conditions and provides good conductivity.
