Abstract:
A method for treating a patient suffering from disorders and deficits of the central nervous system associated with diabetes, associated with aging and neurodegeneration, comprising attention deficit disorder in general, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Alzheimer's disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment, senile dementia, AIDS dementia, neurodegeneration, depression, and schizophrenia, comprising administering to a patient in need of such treatment an effective amount of a selective inhibitor of the 11-ß-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase Type 1 enzyme activity.
Abstract:
A filtering device comprising a filtering element that can be attached to an adapter. The filtering element comprises a mesh surrounding a cavity. The mesh of the filtering element is constructed to have sufficient porosity so that hydrostatic and mechanical pressures force the liquid components of a suspension into the cavity of the filtering element from where they can be aspirated and collected. Preferably, at least one semi-rigid rib supports the mesh. This invention also involves a method for using the filtering device in a variety of applications. These applications include, but are not limited to, sampling of suspensions, filtration of particulate materials from suspensions, and purification or isolation of chemical or biological components contained within the a suspension.

Abstract:
This invention provides compounds that are antagonists of melanin concentrating hormone receptor-1 (MCH-R1). The compounds are represented by formula (I): where m is zero or one, n is zero to two, Y is oxygen or -N (R9)-, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R9, and Ring A are defined in the specification. Coumarin and quinolone compounds where R1 and R2 together form a fused benzo ring are preferred. The invention also provides compounds of formula (VI) where the coumarin moiety is replaced by a quinazolinone ring. The compounds are useful for treating MCH-R1-related disorders, particularly overweight conditions including obesity.
