Title: A treatment solution and method for preventing posterior capsular opacification by selectively inducing detachment and/or death of lens epithelial cells
Inventor: ZHANG JIN JUN
IPC: A61K31/198
Filed: 2003-08-28
Granted: 2009-06-04
Abstract: A treatment solution used to prevent posterior capsular opacification is applied or introduced into the lens capsular bag before, during, or after cataract surgery. The treatment solution comprises an ion transport mechanism interference agent, which either alone or in combination with other treatment agents such as an osmotic stress agent and an agent to establish a suitable pH, selectively induces detachment and/or death of lens epithelial cells such that posterior capsular opacification is prevented. While the ion transport mechanism interference agent is capable of interfering with the cellular mechanisms and cell ion distribution of a broad range of cells, a concentration of agent is selected such that the treatment solution interferes selectively with the cellular mechanisms of lens epithelial cells while leaving other ocular cells substantially unharmed. The treatment solution selectively induces cellular death and/or detachment of lens epithelial cells while other ocular cells and tissue remain substantially unharmed and without lengthy preoperative pre-treatment.

Granted: 2013-07-11
Abstract: P:\WPDOCS\Hjw\Spes 2\2O331426.do-28 12 2007 POLYURETHANES CURED WITH AMINES AND THEIR PREPARATION Polyurethane prepolymers are described which are prepared from 2,4'-diiso-cyanate diphenylmethane (2,4'-MDI), a polyol component and an aliphatic diisocyanate. These prepolymers can be cured with aliphatic, cylcoaliphatic and/or aromatic amines to form a cured urethane elastomer. In comparison to cured urethane elastomers based on monomeric 2,4'-MDI, these prepolymers provide elastomers with extended pour life, i.e. they exhibit a slower rate of viscosity buildup after curative and prepolymer are mixed which results in a reduced propensity to crack during the curing process and gives the opportunity to cast larger parts. In comparison to polyurea/urethanes prepared from cured TDI-prepolymers and which optionally include H 12-MDI, the prepolymers of the invention have better health and safety aspects.
