Abstract:
The present invention relates to thioglycosides and stereoisomeric forms, solvates, hydrates and/or pharmaceutically acceptable salts of these compounds, as well as pharmaceutical compositions containing at least one of these thioglycosides together with pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, excipient and/or diluents. Said thioglycosides have been identified as specific inhibitors of the sodium dependent glucose transporter 1 (SGLT1) and 2 (SGLT2), and are useful for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of hyperglycemia and hyperglycemia related diseases and conditions.
Abstract:
The strongly negative effect of farnesol and its derivatives on the development of rust fungi is used to provide effective plant protection against pathogenic rust fungi.

Abstract:
The invention relates to ion channel forming peptaibols from fungi which represent a novel class of highly effective elicitors of the secondary metabolism of plants, the coiling of touch-sensitive tendrils and the induced resistance to harmful fungi, bacteria, viruses, nematodes and insects.
Abstract:
Described are 6-substituted indanoyl amino acid conjugates of the chemical Formula (I) wherein R 1 = (II), R 2 R 5 have the meanings given in the description, and X = a halogen atom; as potent plant elicitors and efficient mimics of the phytotoxin coronatine. Also, processes for producing the improved elicitors are provided, which allow a rapid and convenient access to large quantities of the highly active compounds. Furthermore, there are compositions and plant protecting agents described, comprising as active ingredient a compound of the present invention. The plant protecting agents are useful for inducing resistance to pathogens in plants. The compositions may also be used to selectively induce senescence in fruit of plants.
