| 20090029923 | Use of thrombin-derived peptides for the therapy of chronic dermal ulcers - Disclosed is a method of promoting healing of a chronic dermal skin ulcer, such as a diabetic ulcer, on a subject. The method comprises the step of contacting the chronic dermal skin ulcer with an effective amount of an agonist of the non-proteolytically activated thrombin receptor. | 01-29-2009 |
| 20090054343 | Methods of therapy using pharmaceutical composition for thrombin peptide derivatives - Disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising a thrombin peptide derivatives and a chelating agent and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable thiol-containing compound. The pharmaceutical compositions optionally further comprise an antioxidant. Also, disclosed are methods for activating the non-proteolytically activated thrombin receptor in a subject in need of such treatment. The methods comprise the step of administering an effective amount of a thrombin peptide derivative in the pharmaceutical composition described above. | 02-26-2009 |
| 20090124550 | Thrombin peptide derivative dimers - Disclosed are thrombin peptide derivative dimers comprising two polypeptides having the amino acid sequence Arg-Gly-Asp-Ala-Cys-Glu-Gly-Asp-Ser-Gly-Gly-Pro-Phe-Val (SEQ ID NO:2), or a C-terminal truncated fragment of the polypeptide having at least six amino acids. Zero, one, two, or three amino acids in the polypeptide or polypeptide fragment differ from the corresponding position of SEQ ID NO:2. Also disclosed are methods of treating a subject in need of treatment with a thrombin receptor agonist. The methods comprise the step of administering an effective amount of the thrombin peptide derivative described above. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20090304671 | Method of treating endothelial dysfunction - Endothelial dysfunction (ED) is associated with a number of diseases and disorders. Agonists of the non-proteolytically activated thrombin receptor can be used in methods to treat ED or ED-related diseases and disorders. | 12-10-2009 |
| 20100303793 | COMBINATION THERAPY FOR CARDIAC REVASCULARIZATION AND CARDIAC REPAIR - An agonist of the non-proteolytically activated thrombin receptor and an angiogenic growth factor can be used in combination in methods of therapy to stimulate cardiac revascularization, to stimulate vascular endothelial cell proliferation, to stimulate vascular endothelial cell migration and to promote repair of cardiac tissue. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20100330028 | COMBINATION THERAPY FOR CHRONIC DERMAL ULCERS - Disclosed is a method of promoting healing of a chronic dermal ulcer, such as a diabetic ulcer, in a subject. The method comprises administering to the subject a combination one or more agonists of the non-proteolytically activated thrombin receptor and one or more angiogenic growth factors. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20110110920 | METHOD OF TREATING PERIPHERAL ARTERIAL DISEASE - An agonist of a non-proteolytically activated thrombin receptor can be used in a method for treating peripheral arterial disease. The agonist can be a thrombin peptide derivative. In some embodiments, the peripheral arterial disease is characterized by intermittent claudication. The thrombin peptide derivatives to be used in the methods can have amino acid sequences similar to a region of thrombin. Usually, the thrombin peptide derivatives are 12-23 amino acid residues in length. In some cases, the thrombin peptide derivatives are dimers, and in particular, dimers that result from formation of a disulfide bond between two cysteine residues of peptide monomers. | 05-12-2011 |
| 20110117075 | THROMBIN DERIVED PEPTIDES FOR SMOOTH MUSCLE RELAXATION - Agonists of a non-proteolytically activated thrombin receptor, and more particularly, thrombin peptide derivatives, can be used in methods to cause smooth muscle relaxation. Compositions comprising thrombin peptide derivatives can be administered to a subject with a disease or disorder that can be ameliorated by relaxation of smooth muscle. Such compositions can also be administered to a subject to facilitate medical, diagnostic or surgical procedures. | 05-19-2011 |
