The inhibitors described herein target factor D and inhibit or regulate the complement cascade at an early and essential point in the alternative complement pathway, and reduce factor D's ability to modulate the classical and lectin complement pathways. The inhibitors of factor D described herein are capable of reducing the excessive activation of complement, which has been linked to certain autoimmune, inflammatory, and neurodegenerative diseases, as well as ischemia-reperfusion injury and cancer.

  • Patent number: 9796743
    Abstract: Bidentate heteroleptic square planar complexes of (pyridyl)azolates possess optical and electrical properties that render them useful for a wide variety of optical and electrical devices and applications. In particular, the complexes are useful for obtaining white or monochromatic organic light-emitting diodes (“OLEDs”), including doping-free OLEDs. Preferred forms also demonstrate semiconducting behavior and may be useful in a variety of other applications. Within the general complexes of (pyridyl)azolates, the metal and the ligands may be varied to impart different optoelectronic properties.

  • Patent number: 9796747
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a solid phase method of making oligonucleotides via sequential coupling cycles including at least one coupling of a dinucleotide dimer subunit to a free 3?-terminal group of a growing chain. The oligonucleotides include at least two nucleoside subunits joined by a N3??P5? phosphoramidate linkage. The method may include the steps of (a) deprotecting the protected 3? amino group of a terminal nucleoside attached to a solid phase support, said deprotecting forming a free 3? amino group; (b) contacting the free 3? amino group with a 3?-protected amino-dinucleotide-5?-phosphoramidite dimer in the presence of a nucleophilic catalyst to form an internucleoside N3??P5? phosphoramidite linkage; and (c) oxidizing (e.g., sulfurizing) the linkage. The compositions produced by the subject methods may include a reduced amount of one or more (N?x) oligonucleotide products. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions including the subject oligonucleotide compositions.
