Abstract:
The invention provides new and useful analogs of 3-amino-thalidomide. These analogs include S(-)-3-amino-thalidomide and R(+)-3-amino-thalidomide. The invention also provides processes for making these analogs. Further, the invention provides methods for inhibiting angiogenesis and treating angiogenesis-associated diseases, including cancer and macular degeneration, by administering these compounds.
Abstract:
The invention provides new and useful analogs of 2-phthalimidinoglutaric acid. These analogs include DL-2-methyl-2-phthalimidinoglutaric acid and hydroxylated analogs of 2-phthalimidinoglutaric wherein each of R3 and R4 are independently H or OH. The invention also provides processes for making these analogs. The invention also provides the two individual enantiomers of DL-2-methyl-2-phthalimidinoglutaric acid, (R)-(+)-2-methyl-2-phthalimidinoglutaric acid and (S)-(-)-2-methyl-2-phthalimidinoglutaric acid, and processes for separating these individual enantiomers from the racemate. Further, the invention provides methods for inhibiting angiogenesis and treating angiogenesis-associated diseases, including cancer and macular degeneration, by administering one or more of these compounds.

Abstract:
The present invention is related to naturally occurring immunoglobulin to cholesterol found in bovine milk that binds to cholesterol, LDL, IDL, and VLDL cholesterol. Milk and dairy-derived products containing immunoglobulin to cholesterol is internally administered to animals including humans. The composition is effective in lowering blood cholesterol and phospholipids by preventing the absorption of dietary sources of cholesterol in the gastrointestinal tract.
