This present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising cyclophosphamide alone and/or in combination with one or more pharmaceutical active ingredients and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients wherein the cyclophosphamide has D90 particle size less than 100 microns.

Functionally-modified oligonucleotide analogs comprising modified intersubunit linkages and/or modified 3′ and/or 5′-end groups are provided. The disclosed compounds are useful for the treatment of diseases where inhibition of protein expression or correction of aberrant mRNA splice products produces beneficial therapeutic effects.

The present invention provides: O-cyclic phytospingosine-1-phosphate (O-C-P1P), N-cyclic phytospingosine-1-phosphate (N-C-P1P), a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a solvate thereof; a preparation method therefor; a cosmetic composition comprising the same for preventing hair loss or for growing hair; and a pharmaceutical composition for preventing and treating hair loss or for growing hair.

The invention provides a polycyclic aromatic compound or a salt thereof having a partial structure represented by the following general formula (I): ##STR00001##
wherein X, ring A, ring B, ring C, and ring D are as defined in the specification.

The invention features compounds of the general formula (I) in which the variable groups are as defined herein, and to their preparation and use.

##STR00001##

The present invention provides a stable peptide-conjugated, ascorbic acid derivative, a method for preparing the same, and a cosmetic composition comprising the same as an active ingredient. The stable peptide-conjugated ascorbic acid derivative of the present invention has both the effect of whitening the skin by inhibiting melanin production and the effect of reducing skin wrinkles by activating collagen production, and may be used in a cosmetic composition.

Functionally-modified oligonucleotide analogues comprising modified intersubunit linkages and/or modified 3′ and/or 5′-end groups are provided. The disclosed compounds are useful for the treatment of diseases where inhibition of protein expression or correction of aberrant mRNA splice products produces beneficial therapeutic effects.
