  • Publication number: 20190350937
    Abstract: Carbon monoxide-releasing organic molecules are described herein. The molecules can be synthesized prior to administration (e.g., ex vivo) or formed in vivo. In those embodiments where the molecules are formed in vivo, reactants are administered under physiological conditions and undergo a cycloaddition reaction to form a product which releases carbon monoxide. In applying such reactions for therapeutic applications in vivo, the cycloaddition and CO release typically occur only under near-physiological or physiological conditions. For example, in some embodiments, the cycloaddition reaction and/or release of carbon monoxide occur at a temperature of about 37° C. and pH of about 7.4. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods for release carbon monoxide are also described.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of cardiomyopathies. The inventors showed that the nicotinamide riboside kinase Nmrk2 gene involved in NAD+ biosynthetic pathway is strongly induced in the heart of the mouse models of dilated cardiomyopathy and that Nmrk2 is an AMPK and PPAR? responsive gene. They also showed that the NMRK enzymes substrate nicotinamide riboside supplementation in food markedly improves cardiac functions and reduces eccentric remodeling. The inventors demonstrated that both the NMRK1 and NMRK2 protein are expressed in the human healthy heart, that NMRK2 protein level is increased in human failing hearts as it is the case in mouse failing hearts in several models of heart failure and cardiomyopathies. In particular, the present invention relates to nicotinamide riboside for use in the treatment of cardiomyopathy in a human subject in need thereof.

    Abstract: Provided herein is a novel method for creating fixed, non-antagonistic molar ratios of drugs in and around the bone environment for desired periods of time. This method enables treating bone and bone-related disease by administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising a bone-targeted therapeutic agent able to release a drug payload from the bone surface, in addition to a second therapeutic agent. Such methods are useful in the treatment of bone and bone-related diseases, such as cancer-induced bone disease, osteomyelitis and bone infection, bone pain and inflammatory bone disease, metabolic disease, as well as others.
