Composition Comprising Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Agent Tenidap And Effectively Non-Antibacterial Tetracycline

US Patent:
5308839, May 3, 1994
Filed:
Sep 4, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/940540
Inventors:
Lorne M. Golub - Smithtown NY
Thomas F. McNamara - Port Jefferson NY
Robert A. Greenwald - Melville NY
Assignee:
The Research Foundation of State University of New York - Albany NY
International Classification:
A61K 3165, A61K 3140
US Classification:
514152
Abstract:
A method for treating mammals suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, other tissue-destructive conditions, and chronic inflammatory or other conditions associated with excess metalloproteinase activity comprising administering to the mammal an amount of a tetracycline that is effectively anti-metalloproteinase, but that is not effectively antimicrobial, and an amount of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent which, when combined with the effectively anti-metalloproteinase amount of tetracycline, results in a significant reduction of tissue destruction and/or bone loss.

Method Of Using Tetracycline Compounds For Inhibition Of Endogenous Nitric Oxide Production

US Patent:
5789395, Aug 4, 1998
Filed:
Aug 30, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/697815
Inventors:
Ashok R. Amin - Union NJ
Steven B. Abramson - Rye NY
Lorne M. Golub - Smithtown NY
Nungavaram S. Ramamurthy - Smithtown NY
Thomas F. McNamara - Port Jefferson NY
Robert A. Greenwald - Melville NY

Hospital for Joint Diseases - New York NY
International Classification:
A61K 3165, C12N 999, C12N 904, C12N 906
US Classification:
514152
Abstract:
A method is disclosed for inhibiting endogenous production of nitric oxide (NO) in an in vivo, in vitro, or ex vivo mammalian system. The method employs a tetracycline compound to inhibit production of NO and/or to inhibit the expression or activity of an inducible isoform of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Preferably, the tetracycline compound has inhibitory activity for metalloproteinases. Also it is preferred that the tetracycline compound is provided to the mammalian system in an amount which has little or no antibacterial activity in the system. Accordingly, preferred tetracycline compounds are tetracycline compounds which have be modified to reduce or eliminate their antimicrobial activity. The method can be used to treat medical conditions in mammals characterized by NO production mediated by iNOS, including, for example, inflammatory conditions.

Inhibition Of Wasting And Protein Degradation Of Mammalian Muscle By Tetracyclines

US Patent:
5045538, Sep 3, 1991
Filed:
Jun 28, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/545395
Inventors:
Bruce Schneider - Great Neck NY
Robert A. Greenwald - Melville NY
Jonathan Maimon - Rego Park NY
Kenneth Gorray - Fresh Meadows NY
Lorne M. Golub - Smithtown NY
Thomas F. McNamara - Port Jefferson NY
Assignee:
The Research Foundation of State University of New York - Albany NY
International Classification:
A61K 3165
US Classification:
514152
Abstract:
A method for treating mammals suffering from skeletal muscle wasting and/or intracellular protein degradation of skeletal muscle systems by administering to the mammal an amount of tetracycline which results in a significant reduction of the muscle wasting and protein degradation is disclosed. In addition, there is also disclosed a method of increasing the protein content of skeletal muscle systems of mammals by administration of tetracyclines. The tetracyclines useful in the above methods are both antimicrobial and non-antimicrobial. In a preferred embodiment, the method of treatment utilizes a non-antimicrobial tetracycline such as dedimethylaminotetracycline (CMT).

Method Of Using Tetracycline Compounds To Enhance Interleukin-10 Production

US Patent:
6015804, Jan 18, 2000
Filed:
Sep 11, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/151534
Inventors:
Lorne M. Golub - Smithtown NY
Christopher T. Ritchlin - Canandaigua NY
Robert A. Greenwald - Melville NY
Susan A. Moak - Bayside NY
Hsi-Ming Lee - Setauket NY
Assignee:
The Research Foundation of State University of New York - Albany NY
University of Rochester - Rochester NY
International Classification:
A61K 3165
US Classification:
514152
Abstract:
The invention is a method of enhancing endogenous interleukin-10 production in mammalian cells and tissues, which includes administering an effective amount of a tetracycline derivative. The method also includes enhancing interleukin-10 production by administering an effective amount of the tetracycline derivative to a mammal. Preferred tetracycline compounds are tetracycline compounds which have been modified to reduce or eliminate their antimicrobial activity. The method can be used to treat medical conditions in mammals characterized by excessive IL-1 and TNF. alpha. production.
