Protection Of Moist Stratified Squamous Epithelia Against Damage From Noxious Luminal Agents

US Patent:
5374537, Dec 20, 1994
Filed:
Nov 24, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/983089
Inventors:
Roy C. Orlando - Chapel Hill NC
Nelia A. Tobey - Raleigh NC
Assignee:
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill - Chapel Hill NC
International Classification:
C12Q 102, A01N 4326, A01N 5726, A61K 3752
US Classification:
435 29
Abstract:
The present invention is related to the protection of moist stratified squamous epithelia against damage from exposure to noxious luminal agents. Protection of moist stratified squamous epithelia against these noxious luminal agents is afforded by chemical compounds having one of the following reactive groups in their molecule: X--SO. sub. 3. sup. -, where X represents oxygen or carbon, and XO. sub. 4. sup. = or X. sub. 2 O. sub. 7. sup. =, where X represents an element from group VIb or sulfur of group VIa of the periodic table. Compounds that provide protection against injury to moist stratified squamous epithelia that illustrate the protective characteristic of these reactive species are the sulfonates, the sulfate esters and the tetrahedral-shaped divalent oxy-anions of the transition metals in group VIb or of sulfur. The reason for protection by these compounds is that they stabilize the intercellular junctions of moist stratified squamous epithelia so as to prevent the increase in permeability across the junctions that normally accompanies exposure to noxious luminal agents like HCl or N-acetylcysteine.

Method For Treating Acute Alkali Exposure With Carbon Dioxide

US Patent:
5262180, Nov 16, 1993
Filed:
Nov 25, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/797781
Inventors:
Roy C. Orlando - Chapel Hill NC
R. Lee Meyers - Chapel Hill NC
Assignee:
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill - Chapel Hill NC
International Classification:
A61K 3300
US Classification:
424700
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for combatting damage to a body tissue contacted to an alkali. The method comprising administering CO. sub. 2 to the subject in an amount sufficient to produce an acidotic state in the tissue, the acidotic state serving to prevent alkali damage to the tissue. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, a subject is caused to inhale a mixture of 95%O. sub. 2 and 5%CO. sub. 2 for brief periods of time, followed by periods of breathing room air. The invention is particularly useful for treating alkaline injury of the esophagus caused by ingestion of alkaline material.
