  • Patent number: 7915405
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are 2,4-disubstituted-5-aminocarbonyl-1,3-thiazole derivatives, a preparation method thereof, and a therapeutic agent for treating inflammatory diseases induced by SPC, which contains the derivative as an active ingredient. The anti-inflammatory effect of the 2,4-disubstituted-5-aminocarbonyl-1,3-thiazole derivatives was analyzed through a test employing human dermal cells and an animal test using mice and, as a result, it was found that the derivatives showed excellent inhibitory activity on SPC receptor compared to thiazole derivatives known in the prior art. Thus, the 2,4-disubstituted-5-aminocarbonyl-1,3-thiazole derivatives or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are useful as active ingredients in therapeutic agents for treating inflammatory diseases, such as inflammation, pruritus and skin infection, which appear in atopic dermatitis and other diseases induced by SPC activity. wherein R1, R2, R3 and R4 are as defined in the specification.

  • Patent number: 7820159
    Abstract: The invention is based upon the discovery that the EGFR pathway can stimulate a previously unknown tumorigenic function of CA IX, via phosphorylation of the sole tyrosine residue present in CA IX's intracellular domain. EGFR-phosphorylated CA IX then interacts with the p85 subunit of PI3K to activate Akt, which in turn is associated with anti-apototic function and increased cell survival. The latter finding indicates that there is a positive feedback loop for CA9 expression mediated by the PI3K pathway in preneoplastic/neoplastic diseases. Disclosed herein are novel therapeutic methods for treating preneoplastic/neoplastic diseases associated with abnormal MN/CA IX expression, using EGFR pathway inhibitors. Preferably, the EGFR pathway inhibitors are tyrosine kinase inhibitors or EGFR-specific antibodies.
