A method administers quaternary ammonium anti-cholinergic muscarinic receptor antagonists in combination with acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors to treat either cognitive impairment or acute delirium. This therapy results in a modification of a cognitive disorder or disease, namely a slow down in the disease progression. In one preferred embodiment, the disease is dementia with Lewy Bodies. New formulations for quaternary ammonium anti-cholinergic muscarinic receptor antagonists are also disclosed.

The invention discloses new application of fucoxanthin to preparation of medicine for treating the alzheimer disease. The application is characterized in that fucoxanthin is used in the aspect of preparation of the medicine for treating the alzheimer disease, particularly in the aspect of preparation of medicine inhibiting acetylcholin esterase and the aspect of preparation of medicine inhibiting Abeta fibrosis. The application has the advantage that fucoxanthin has the inhibition function on acetylcholin esterase and Abeta fibrosis.

This invention discloses that a combination of two drugs, from two different and previously unrelated categories, provides effective and long-lasting relief from neuropathic pain. Both drugs can be taken orally, in a convenient, painless, non-invasive manner that does not require injections. One drug in this combination is an alpha2 adrenergic agonist, exemplified by clonidine. The other drug in the pain-relieving combination has a tri-cyclo-alkyl-amine (TCAA) structure. At least some TCAA drugs have antagonist (receptor-blocking) activity at two entirely different classes of neuronal receptors: the muscarinic subclass of acetylcholine (ACh) receptors, and the NMDA subclass of glutamate receptors. Such drugs include ethopropazine, normally used as an anti-cholinergic drug, and desipramine, normally used as an anti-depressant. Tests by the Applicants have shown that at least some TCAA drugs can relieve neuropathic pain to a limited extent, but at the doses required to relieve pain, they cause adverse side effects, and any pain relief is relatively brief and short-lived. However, when a TCAA drug such as ethopropazine is administered together with an alpha2 adrenergic agonist such as clonidine, these drugs mutually potentiate one another's neuropathic pain-relieving action, and provide potent and sustained neuropathic pain relief, even when each agent is administered at a low dosage that is below its threshold for causing adverse side effects. Accordingly, this drug combination can provide safe and effective relief of neuropathic pain and possibly other types of chronic and / or intractable pain, at dosages which are so low that they do not pose serious risks of adverse side effects.

The invention provides for methods for treating gastric cancer or colon cancer in a subject by administering a cholinergic antagonist, a Botulinum toxin, a NGF inhibitior, a TRK inhibitor, or performing a surgical denervation. The invention provides for inhibiting stem cells growth by administering a cholinergic antagonist, a Botulinum toxin, a NGF inhibitior, a TRK inhibitor, or performing a surgical denervation. The invention provides for stimulating regeneration of the colon or stomach by administering a cholinergic agonist.

A method for treating the adverse effects of acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors used in the treatment of cognitive disorders such as acute delirium and cognitive impairment in elderly human patients. The administration of a clinically effective amount of a quaternary ammonium anti-cholinergic muscarinic receptor antagonist having very low lipid solubility substantially eliminates the adverse effects of urinary and / or fecal incontinence, nausea, bradycardia, bronchorrhea or brochospasm caused by the acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors, without affecting the beneficial activity of the acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors. This permits the administration of the optimum effective dosing of acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors to provide maximum benefit to the patient with the added benefit of reducing or eliminating the unwanted side effects of fecal and urinary incontinence. Further, the combination of rivastigmine and glycopyrrolate has been effective in significantly improving cognitive function in patients suffering from acute dementia or cognitive impairment.

The present invention refers to biochemistry, namely to new peptide compounds having the ability to selectively block the muscle-type nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. The claimed compounds have common formula (I): X1-X2-X3-Pro-X4-Pro-X5 (SEQ ID NO: 54), where X1 is chosen within H, Ac—, Palm-; X2 is chosen within Trp, Tyr; X3 is chosen within Trp, Tyr; X4 is chosen within Lys, Orn, Dbu, Dpr, Arg; X5 is chosen within —OH, —NH2, —OCH3, —OC2H5, —NH—C6H5. The invention can be applied in cosmetics for smoothing mimic and age-related Wrinkles.

The present invention relates to an alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor ligand and a preparation method thereof. The ligand includes an agonist and an imaging agent, the agonist is a 1,4-diazabicyclo [3.2.2] nonane-benzo heterocyclic derivative, and the imaging agent is 125I and 18F-trifluoromethyl marker. The derivatives both have good brain uptake, the absorption values in different regions of the brain are basally consistent with the distribution of alpha7nAChR receptors, the uptake of the derives is highest in hippocampus, thalamus, cortex and other regions where the alpha7nAChR receptors targetedly distribute, and the derives can be blocked by known alpha7nAChR ligands but can not be blocked by alpha4beta2 medicine. Therefore, the 1,4-diazabicyclo [3.2.2] nonane-benzo heterocyclic derivative and the 125I and 18F-trifluoromethyl marker are potential agonist and imaging agent for alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.

The invention relates to isoquinoline-type alkaloid for preventing and treating cervical cancer, belonging to the fields of preparation technique of natural medicament extractives and antitumor medicines. The invention also relates to applications of bulbocapnine, isocorydine, isoboldine, N-methyl hernovine, dicranostigma alkaloid or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or esters thereof in the preparation of medicaments for preventing and treating cervical cancer.

The disclosure provides compounds of formula I, including their salts, as well as compositions and methods of using the compounds. The compounds are ligands for the nicotinic α7 receptor and may be useful for the treatment of various disorders of the central nervous system, especially affective and neurodegenerative disorders.

The invention discloses a saturated heterocyclic nitrogen containing caffeic acid derivative separated from nightshades, or pharmacological acceptable salt of the caffeic acid derivative. The compound is a hydroxycholine M receptor antagonist and can be used for treating diseases of spasm, stenocardia, cholecystalgia, renal colic, visceral spasm and the like. An unmarked cell-targeting pharmacological technique is adopted, research on dose-effect relationship displays DMR response signals caused by antagonistic acetylcholine with compound dose dependency and shows that the compound has high hydroxycholine M receptor antagonistic activity. Compared with known M receptor antagonist atropine, scopolamine and the like, the compound is large in structural difference, and selectivity on muscle glands and the nervous system can be expectedly improved; current research shows that a hydroxycholine M receptor is related to diseases of spasm, analgesia, calm, schizophrenia and the like, and an efficient new ligand definite in action target can be provided for the related diseases.

The invention relates to a composition for improving cerebral neurotrophic function. The composition comprises, by weight, 91.1-99.8% of asparagus extract, 0-2.4% of phosphatidylserine, 0-2.4% of fungal extract, 0.09-1.6% of theanine and 0.09-2.0% of gamma-aminobutyric acid. The asparagus extract is solid powder or liquid, and refers to the extract, with asparagus saponin content not less than 0.3g / 100g, extracted from one or multiple of asparagus stems, leaves or leftovers; the fungal extract refers to the extract from one or multiple of shiitake mushroom, glossy ganoderma, hericium erinaceus, pleurotus cornucopiae and pleurotus eryngii; extraction solvents of the asparagus extract and the fungal extract both refer to water or mixture of ethyl alcohol and water. The composition can promote growth of the brain derived neurotrphic factor by increasing content of hippocampus acetyl choline, improve mechanisms such as neurotrophic growth factor gene expression, and play a role in improving the cerebral neurotrophic function.
