In these contexts, inhibition and reduction of activity of the NS5A protein refers to a lower level of the measured activity relative to a control experiment in which the cells or the subjects are not treated with the test compound. The inhibition or reduction in the measured activity is at least a 10% reduction or inhibition. The compounds and their isomeric forms and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are useful in treating and preventing HCV infection alone or when used in combination with other compounds targeting viral or cellular elements or functions involved in the HCV lifecycle.

  • Publication number: 20130303580
    Abstract: Oil-in-water fungicidal formulations are prepared having pigment dispersed therein, the pigment being stable within the oil-in-water emulsion as a result of the addition of suitable silicone surfactants and suitable emulsifiers. The formulations can be prepared either as a 2-pack formulation or as a single formulation. In the case of the single formulation polyethylene glycol is also added. In either case, the formulations show a synergistic effect through the addition of the pigment, the resulting formulations having an increased efficacy. Further, the formulations show a synergistic effect when mixed with conventional chemical fungicides, both being added in reduced amounts compared to recommended rates.

  • Publication number: 20130303512
    Abstract: This disclosure is directed, in part, to a method of determining whether a subject having cancer is at risk for developing metastasis of the cancer. In one embodiment, the method comprises (a) obtaining a biological sample from the subject having cancer; (b) determining CCR5 expression level and/or expression level of at least one of CCR5 ligands in the biological sample; and (c) if the expression level of CCR5 and/or of at least one of CCR5 ligands determined in step (b) is increased compared to CCR5 expression level and/or expression level of at least one of CCR5 ligands in a control sample, then the subject is identified as likely at risk for developing metastasis of the cancer.
