20110311653 | USE OF NITRITE SALTS IN CHRONIC ISCHEMIA - Methods of treating a subject who has chronic tissue ischemia are disclosed. The methods can include administering to the subject a pharmaceutical composition comprising inorganic nitrite or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for a time and in an amount sufficient to result in blood vessel growth in the ischemic tissue. The subject can be diagnosed as having a medical condition that results in persistent or recurring restriction of blood supply to a tissue, for example, peripheral artery disease, diabetes, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease or defective wound healing. The methods can include the step of identifying a suitable subject. | 12-22-2011 |
20130045916 | TREATMENT OF TYPE 2 DIABETES, METABOLIC SYNDROME, MYOCARDIAL INJURY AND NEURODEGENERATION WITH HUMANIN AND ANALOGS THEREOF - Provided are methods of using humanin and humanin analogs to treat a mammal exhibiting or at risk for insulin resistance, increase insulin sensitivity in a mammal exhibiting or at risk for insulin resistance, treat type-2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and neurodegeneration, treat and prevent myocardial injury, and determine longevity. | 02-21-2013 |

20100247682 | USE OF NITRITE SALTS FOR THE TREATMENT OF CARDIOVASCULAR CONDITIONS - It has been surprisingly discovered that administration of nitrite to subjects causes a reduction in blood pressure and an increase in blood flow to tissues. The effect is particularly beneficial, for example, to tissues in regions of low oxygen tension. This discovery provides useful treatments to regulate a subject's blood pressure and blood flow, for example, by the administration of nitrite salts. Provided herein are methods of administering a pharmaceutically-acceptable nitrite salt to a subject, for treating, preventing or ameliorating a condition selected from: (a) ischemia-reperfusion injury (e.g., hepatic or cardiac or brain ischemia-reperfusion injury); (b) pulmonary hypertension (e.g., neonatal pulmonary hypertension); or (c) cerebral artery vasospasm. | 09-30-2010 |
