  • Patent number: 12016848
    Abstract: An improved a method of treating a patient having a disorder responsive to PDE-4 inhibition by administering roflumilast. The improvement involves administering the roflumilast topically in a composition having a roflumilast release profile that produces in the patient a flattened plasma concentration time curve and a reduced Cmax relative to oral administration of a PDE4-inhibiting amount of roflumilast. Such disorders include inflammatory disorders such as inflammatory dermatoses, including psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and seborrheic dermatitis. Such disorders also include inflammatory diseases in a variety of organs, especially the lungs (asthma, COPD). Because of reduced side effects with topical administration due to the improved pharmacokinetics (PK) characteristics, it may be possible to provide higher systemic exposures (AUCs) with topical administration, resulting in greater therapeutic efficacy than with the oral route of administration.

  • Patent number: 12016887
    Abstract: Compositions for reducing the emission of methane by ruminant animals are disclosed. The compositions include avian antibodies against methanogens generally found in the rumen of the animals. Egg contents of eggs from female birds inoculated with immunogenic compositions containing one or more methanogens or antigens derived from methanogens are used. The antibodies in the egg contents may be used directly without further purification, may be partially purified or purified. The compositions may be administered in drinking water or in animal feed. Administering of the anti-methanogenic composition reduces the emission of methane and increases the efficiency of feed conversion.

  • Patent number: 12016888
    Abstract: A process for obtaining biologically active compositions from emu oil is provided, wherein the compositions are obtained by molecular distillation of the oil, both the distillate and the distillation residue being biologically active compositions. More specifically, a process for obtaining biologically active compositions from refined emu oil is disclosed, which has the following steps: (a) feeding emu oil at a flow of between 1 to 300 kg/h*m2 to a molecular distillation column at a pressure between 0.0001 mbar and 0.05 mbar and at an evaporator temperature between 160° C. and 250° C., for generating a distillate and a residue; and (b) collecting the distillate from the column, the distillate being a biologically active composition, and (c) collecting the residue from the column, the residue being a biologically active composition.

  • Patent number: 12016890
    Abstract: The present invention relates to: a novel Lactobacillus intestinalis YT2 strain (deposition number: KCCM11812P); and a composition for preventing, alleviating, or treating menopause, comprising, as an active ingredient, Lactobacillus intestinalis comprising the novel strain. The present inventors have established an animal model for menopause through ovariectomy, confirmed changes of the distribution of intestinal microorganisms by the model, identified and isolated a novel Lactobacillus intestinalis strain among lactic acid bacteria of which the distribution is significantly reduced in the menopausal model, and confirmed effects, by means of the novel strain and previously reported Lactobacillus intestinalis strains, of alleviating menopausal symptoms, such as the inhibition of an increase in body fat, the inhibition of a decrease in bone mineral density, the inhibition of an increase in the pain sensitivity, and the alleviation of depression.
