Abstract:
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for treating a human patient afflicted with a neuropsychiatric disorder. Specifically, the invention provides for compositions and methods of modulating or antagonizing the activity of neuronal NMDA receptors, wherein such antagonistic activity is capable of modulating the glutamate induced excitatory response of the neurons, thereby inhibiting an excitotoxic effect, promoting a neurotrophic effect, and thereby providing a therapeutic effect that treats the neuropsychiatric disorder.
Abstract:
The combination of nitric oxide generating compounds which are not dependent upon aldehyde dehydrogenase for bioactivation, or are specifically targeted to nNOS or the sarcoplasmic reticulum of cardiac muscle cells, and xanthine oxidase inhibitors are effective in the treatment of heart disease, specifically congestive heart failure and ischemic coronary disease. This treatment is particularly effective in patients who have particularly heavy oxidative burdens, e.g. diabetics, patients with lung disorders, patients with sickle cell anemia and patients of Asian descent.
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to methods for reducing the complexity of a sample. More specifically, the present invention relates to proteomics, the measurement of the protein levels in biological samples, and analysis of proteins in a sample using antibodies that recognize small epitopes.
Abstract:
The present invention provides novel methods and compositions for the treatment and prevention of headaches, vascular headaches, migraine headaches, cluster headaches, and migraine. One of the headaches, vascular headaches, migraine headaches, cluster headaches, and migraine treated by the methods and compositions of the invention is migraine.
