  • Publication number: 20190183779
    Abstract: The present technology provides a nail coating system suitable for improving the nail plate to which it is applied. The nail coating system includes two components—an oil-based serum and a base composition. In use, the oil-based serum may be applied directly to a nail plate without first cleaning the nail plate with alcohol and/or acetone. The oil-based serum coat may fill in any cracks and crevices in the nail plate and restoring sebum and water on the nail plate. After the oil-based serum layer is buffed into the nail, the base composition may be applied for the oil-based serum coat. After the base composition dries, a user may apply a top coat, a tinted nail polish, a perfector product, etc. The resulting nail plate has improved features and restored natural sebum and water levels in the nail plate.

  • Publication number: 20190183820
    Abstract: Ketogenic compositions including a non-racemic mixture of beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) enriched with the S-enantiomer are formulated to control ketone body levels in a subject. The non-racemic mixture of BHB is enriched with the S-enantiomer to modulate the effect of ketone bodies in the subject and control the rate at which ketosis is achieved. In some aspects a composition for controlling ketone body level in a subject contains a dietetically or pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a non-racemic mixture of S-beta-hydroxybutyrate and R-beta-hydroxybutyrate, wherein the non-racemic mixture contains from about 52% to 99% by enantiomeric equivalents of S-beta-hydroxybutyrate enantiomer and from about 48% to about 1% by enantiomeric equivalents of R-beta-hydroxybutyrate enantiomer.

    Abstract: A method of treating a movement abnormality associated with the pathology of a neurological movement disorder, such as Parkinson's disease or Restless Leg(s) Syndrome by administering a therapeutically effective amount of a PDE7 inhibitory agent. An aspect of the invention provides for the administration of a PDE& inhibitory agent in conjunction with a dopamine agonist or precursor, such as levodopa. In another aspect of the invention, the PDE7 inhibitory agent may be selective for PDE7 relative to other molecular targets (i) known to be involved with the pathology of Parkinson's disease or (ii) at which other drug(s) that are therapeutically effective to treat Parkinson's disease act.
