    Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition includes lipid nanoparticles which include two or more of a phospholipid, cholesterol, and an ionic lipid, and a tricyclic derivative, wherein the solubility of the tricyclic derivative is improved. It is possible to solubilize a partially soluble tricyclic derivative in a high concentration even without using a solubilization aid harmful to the human body, to maintain improved solubility even if water is added for the use as an injection, and to show stability even if stored for a long time, by preparing lipid nanoparticles. Therefore, the lipid nanoparticles of the present invention can be used for preparing a pharmaceutical preparation containing a partially soluble tricyclic derivative as an active ingredient.

  • Publication number: 20130005759
    Abstract: MicroRNAs are a class of endogenous regulators of gene function. Aberrant regulation of microRNAs has been linked to various human diseases, most importantly cancer. Small molecule intervention of microRNA misregulation has the potential to provide new therapeutic approaches to such diseases. microRNA miR-122 is the most abundant microRNA in the liver and is involved in hepatocellular carcinoma development and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Small molecule inhibitors and activators of the microRNA miR-122 are described, and methods for their identification are reported. These small molecule inhibitors reduce viral replication in liver cells and thus represent a new approach to the treatment of HCV infections. Moreover, small molecule activation of miR-122 in liver cancer cells selectively induced apoptosis through caspase activation, and thus has implications in cancer chemotherapy.

  • Publication number: 20120231070
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for obtaining local anesthetics encapsulated in liposomes, such as multi vesicular liposomes, with high encapsulation efficiency and slow release in vivo. When the encapsulated anesthetic is administered as a single intracutaneous dose, the duration of anesthesia and half-life of the drug at the local injection site is increased as compared to injection of unencapsulated anesthetic. The maximum tolerated dose of the encapsulated anesthetic is also markedly increased in the liposomal formulation over injection of unencapsulated anesthetic. These results show that the liposomal formulation of local anesthetic is useful for sustained local infiltration and nerve block anesthesia.

  • Publication number: 20120178697
    Abstract: The Wnt signaling pathways are involved in embryo development as well as in tumorigenesis. Dishevelled (Dvl) tranduces Wnt signals from the receptor Frizzled (Fz) to downstream components in canonical and non-canonical Wnt signaling pathways, and the Dvl PDZ domain plays an essential role in both pathways, and the Dvl PDZ domain binds directly to Fz receptors. In the present invention using NMR-assisted virtual ligand screening, several compounds were identified and were found to bind to the Dvl PDZ domain. Molecular dynamics simulation was used to analyze the binding between the PDZ domain and these compounds in detail. These compounds provide a basis for rational design of high-affinity inhibitors of the PDZ domain, which can block Wnt signaling by interrupting the Fz-Dvl interaction.
