  • Publication number: 20130131006
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for inhibiting the induction of cell death by inhibiting the synthesis or secretion of AGE-albumin in cells of the mononuclear phagocyte system, to an AGE-albumin synthesis inhibitor, and to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the AGE-albumin synthesis inhibitor for preventing or treating degenerative disease and autoimmune disease. The AGE-albumin of the present invention is synthesized and secreted in human microglia or human macrophages in an Alzheimer's model, stroke model, Parkinson's disease model and rheumatoid arthritis model. The AGE-albumin synthesis and secretion are caused by oxidative stress. The expression of RAGE increases in first-order human neurons or cartilage cells to which AGE-albumin is administered, whereupon a MAPK signaling pathway is activated and the expression of Bax increases to induce an increase in calcium in mitochondria, thus finally inducing cell death.

    Abstract: High penetration compositions (HPC) of a parent compound, which are capable of crossing biological barriers with high penetration efficiency. The HPCs are capable of being converted to parent drugs or parent drug-related compounds such as metabolites after crossing one or more biological barriers and thus can render treatments for the conditions that the parent drugs or parent drug-related compounds can. Additionally, the HPCs are capable of reaching areas that their parent drugs or parent drug-related compounds may not be able to access or to render a sufficient concentration at the target areas HPCs of NSAIA, for example, have demonstrated indications such as treating hair loss. A HPC can be administered to a subject through various administration routes, e.g., locally delivered to an action site of a condition with a high concentration or systematically administered to a biological subject and enter the general circulation with a faster rate.

  • Publication number: 20110020240
    Abstract: Provided herein are imaging methods for detecting, diagnosing and imaging pathogenic bacteria or a pathophysiological condition associated therewith using fluorogenic substrates for bacterial enzymes. Fluorescent, luminescent or colorimetric signals emitted by substrates or enzyme products in the presence of the bacteria are compared to controls to detect and locate the pathogenic bacteria. Provided is a method for screening therapeutic agents to treat the pathophysiological conditions by measuring a signal emitted from the fluorogenic substrates or products in the presence and absence of the potential therapeutic agent. In addition, a diagnostic method for detecting a mycobacterial infection in a subject by contacting biological samples with a fluorogenic substrate and imaging for signals emitted from a mycobacterial beta-lactamase product.

  • Patent number: 7868147
    Abstract: A fluorescent probe which is represented by the following formula (I): (wherein, R1 represents a monovalent substituent other than hydrogen atom, carboxy group, or sulfo group; R2 represents hydrogen atom, or a monovalent substituent; R3 and R4 each independently represents hydrogen atom or a halogen atom; and R5 represents a monovalent group which is cleaved by contact with a measuring object, provided that a combination of R1 and R2 is selected so that the oxidation potential of the benzene ring to which they bind makes (1) the compound represented by the formula (I) substantially no fluorescent before the cleavage, and (2) a compound after the cleavage, which is derived from the compound represented by the formula (I), substantially highly fluorescent after the cleavage).
