The invention relates to a TRPM8 modulator for achieving a cooling effect on the skin or a mucous membrane.

The present disclosure relates to compounds which are useful as cooling sensation compounds.

The invention relates to new types of modulators of the cold menthol receptor TRPM8, to methods of modulating the TRPM8 receptor using these modulators; and in particular the use of the modulators for inducing a sensation of coldness; and also the articles and compositions produced using these modulators.

The invention relates to novel modulators of the cold menthol receptor TRPM8, to a method for modulating the TRPM8 receptor using said modulators; to the use of the modulators for induction of cold sensation; and to objects and means produced using said modulators.

The invention relates to the use of a TRPM8-activating substance for producing a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of tumor diseases in which TRPM8 is over-expressed.

The present invention includes compounds useful as modulators of TRPM8, such as compounds of Formula (I) and the subgenus and species thereof; personal products containing those compounds; and the use of those compounds and the personal products, particularly the use of increasing or inducing chemesthetic sensations, such as cooling or cold sensations.

The invention discloses a new use of methyl liensinine. Methyl liensinine respectively regulates M8 and V1 subtype transient receptor potential ion channels (TRPM8 and TRPV1 for short) of mammal including human, so as to prepare medicine for treating related diseases joined by the ion channels (such as cold hyperalgesia, parkinsonism, nociceptive bladder syndrome, chronic obstructive lung diseaseand tumours of skin, prostate, breast, lung and colon). The action strength of methyl liensinine of the invention is higher than that of menthol.

The present discovery pertains generally to the field of therapeutic compounds. More specifically the present discovery pertains to certain di-isopropyl-phosphinoyl-alkanes as described herein, DIPA-1-5, DIPA-1-6, DIPA-1-7, DIPA-1-8, and DIPA-1-9, collectively referred to herein as “DIPA compounds”, that are useful, for example, in the treatment of disorders (e.g., diseases) including: sensory discomfort (e.g., caused by irritation, itch, or pain); a skin dysesthesia; dermatitis; ocular pain and discomfort; heat discomfort; heat stress; flushing and/or night sweats (vasomotor symptoms); post-operative hypothermia; post-anaesthetic shivering; fatigue; tiredness; depression; cognitive dysfunction; and to enhance cognitive function. The applicant has found that localized delivery of DIPA compounds to the upper eyelid and/or facial skin has an alerting and enhancement effect on behavior and can be used to give a cosmetic refreshing look, to mental alertness, to reduce fatigue, and to improve work output. The present discovery also pertains to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and the use of such compounds and compositions, for example, in therapy, in diagnosis of neuropathic pain, and in study of TRPM8 function.

The present disclosure relates to topical compositions comprising one or more compounds which are cooling agents.

This disclosure relates to natural topical and analgesic pain relief and anti-inflammation compositions and methods to reduce pain and inflammation. This disclosure also relates to the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory compounds (NSAIDs) in hydrophilic compositions comprised of synthetic and natural plant extract compounds that are multifunctional TRPM8 ion channel agonists, TRPA1 and TRPV1 ion channel antagonists, CGRP antagonists, and COX-2 inhibitors. In particular, this disclosure relates to a topical analgesic composition comprising at least one NSAID, at least one synthetic or natural plant extract TRPM8 agonist, at least one synthetic or natural plant extract is a TRPA1 antagonist, and at least one fixed plant seed oil containing Omega-3 fatty acids TRPV1 antagonists, and a carrier.

The invention relates to compounds acting as selective antagonists of Transient Receptor Potential cation channel subfamily M member 8 (TRPM8), and having formula (I).

Said compounds are useful in the treatment of diseases associated with activity of TRPM8 such as pain, inflammation, ischaemia, neurodegeneration, stroke, psychiatric disorders, itch, irritable bowel diseases, cold induced and/or exacerbated respiratory disorders and urological disorders.

Fibrous structures, for example sanitary tissue products, such as toilet tissue, containing one or more sensates, more particularly one or more TRPM8 receptor triggering agents, a sensate composition, for example surface softening composition, comprising one or more TRPM8 receptor triggering agents, and methods for making same are provided.

The present invention relates to sulfamoyl benzoic acid derivatives of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in the treatment of various disorders which are mediated via the TRPM8 receptor.

The subject invention provides methods for using TRPM8 receptors as a therapeutic target for identifying effective methods or compounds useful in the diagnosis or treatment of respiratory diseases or conditions. In certain embodiments, compositions that are identified using the methods of the invention are administered to a patient to diagnose or treat a respiratory disease or condition. In a preferred embodiment, TRPM8 receptor blockers are identified and administered, in accordance with the subject invention, to treat a patient with a respiratory disease, such as asthma.

The present invention discovered that a mammalian TRPM8 binds to calmodulin. The present invention provides a polypeptide complex comprising a cold-menthol receptor (TRPM8) or an active fragment or derivative of TRPM8 and a calmodulin or an active fragment or derivative of calmodulin, and the uses of the polypeptide complex.

A skin-sensitizing formulation is provided in an edible, softgel pill. A person engaged in a sexual activity bites down on the pill, thereby effectuating the oral release of the skin-sensitizing formulation. This allows the skin-sensitizing formulation to be spread to a sexual partner, on any part of the skin or sexual region of the body preferably through oral contact with the partner. The skin-sensitizing substance is spread to the partner directly on the skin or through oral contact or beneath a condom worn by the partner. The skin-sensitizing formulation may include an essential mint oil, analog or derivative, and may further includes an enhancer, rubefacient, counterirritant, anesthetic, K-Opoid Receptor activator, or TRPM8 activator. Various inactive ingredients are also disclosed.
