Ileus Treatment Method

View page
US Patent:
58885293, Mar 30, 1999
Filed:
Mar 28, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/828953
Inventors:
Nigel W. Bunnett - Sausalito CA
Carlos U. Corvera - San Francisco CA
Assignee:
The Regents of the University of California - Oakland CA
International Classification:
A61K 908
US Classification:
424422
Abstract:
A method of treating or preventing post-operative ileus in a mammalian subject is disclosed. The method involves administering to the subject, a pharmaceutically effective amount of a compound that is effective in (i) preventing mast cell degranulation, (ii) inhibiting tryptase and chymase, and (iii) antagonizing PAR-2. The treatment is based on the discoveries that proteinase-activated receptor 2 is expressed in colonic muscle cells, and that activation of PAR-2 inhibits colonic motility. The PAR-2 receptor is activated, at least in part, by tryptase and chymase, produced by infiltration and degranulation of mast cells.
