Title: Use of nitrite salts for the treatment of cardiovascular conditions
Inventor: CANNON RICHARD III
IPC: A61P9/08
Filed: 2004-07-09
Granted: 2009-07-23
Abstract: 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.

Abstract: Peptide-based compounds including heteroatom-containing, three-membered rings efficiently and selectively inhibit specific activities of N-terminal nucleophile (Ntn) hydrolases. The activities of those Ntn having multiple activities can be differentially inhibited by the compounds described. For example, the chymotrypsin-like activity of the 20S proteasome may be selectively inhibited with the inventive compounds. The peptide-based compounds include at least three peptide units, an epoxide or aziridine, and functionalization at the N-terminus. Among other therapeutic utilities, the peptide-based compounds are expected to display anti-inflammatory properties and inhibition of cell proliferation.

Title: Pneumatic tire
Inventor: TAKASHI KODAMA
IPC: B60C11/11
Filed: 2005-07-27
Granted: 2011-12-01
Abstract: A pneumatic tire where one-sided wear is prevented. The pneumatic tire is a tire whose direction of rotation is not specified, the tire having lug grooves (20) crossing the lands on the shoulder sides of a tread section (16). The lug grooves (20) each have a tapered groove section (21) whose width gradually narrows, and block portions (22) are formed between the lug grooves (20) so as to be arranged in the circumferential direction of the tire. The block portions (22) have a trapezoidal shape, as viewed from the tire tread surface side, with the shoulder side of a block portion as the short side. The tapered groove section (21) is formed to extend from a tread end T beyond a 1/4 point Q. One-sided wear of the pneumatic tire (10) can be prevented because a lug angle α at a trailing edge section near the 1/4 point Q is not more than 90° regardless of which direction the pneumatic tire (10) is rotated.
