Abstract:
[Object] A compound that can be used as an agent for treating a disease associated with an EP1 receptor, in particular, a lower urinary tract symptom.[Means for Solution] It was confirmed that a sulfonamide compound having an amide structure and characterized by a chemical structure in which a carbon atom in the amide bonds to the N atom in sulfonamide through lower alkylene, or a salt thereof, has a potent EP1 receptor antagonistic activity, accomplishing the present invention. Since the sulfonamide compound of the present invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof has a potent EP1 receptor antagonistic activity, it is useful as an agent for treating a disease associated with an EP1 receptor, in particular, a lower urinary tract symptom.
Abstract:
A head slider includes a leading end and a trailing end, a main top face and two step faces. The main top face faces a recording medium and forms a part of the leading end. The two step faces extend from the leading end to a downstream side at a lower position than the main top face when the main top face is placed face up. The step faces are respectively provided at the right and left sides with respect to the airflow. The main top face extends between the two step faces. The other portion of the main top face extends at the rear side of the step faces. At least a part of the head slider floats above the recording medium.
