According to an embodiment of the present invention, provided is a composition for preventing or treating sarcopenia containing a non-natural amino acid derivative as an active ingredient.

A composition and method of treatment of neuromuscular, neuromuscular degenerative, neurodegenerative, autoimmune, developmental, traumatic, hearing loss related, and/or metabolic diseases, including spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) syndrome (SMA1, SMA2, SMA3, and SMA4, also called Type I, II, III and IV), traumatic brain injury (TBI), concussion, keratoconjunctivitis sicca (Dry Eye Disease), glaucoma, Sjogren's syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, post-LASIK surgery, anti-depressants use, Wolfram Syndrome, and Wolcott-Rallison syndrome. The composition is selected from the group consisting of 2,3-DNP, 2,4-DNP, 2,5-DNP, 2,6-DNP, 3,4-DNP, or 3,5-DNP, bipartite 2,3-dinitrophenol, 2,4-dinitrophenol, 2,5-dinitrophenol, 2,6-dinitrophenol, 3,4-dinitrophenol, or 3,5-dinitrophenol (2,3-DNP, 2,4-DNP, 2,5-DNP, 2,6-DNP, 3,4-DNP, or 3,5-DNP) prodrugs; Gemini prodrugs, bioprecursor molecules, and combinations thereof. A dose of the composition for treatment of neurodegenerative diseases may be from about 0.01 mg/kg of body weight to about 50 mg/kg of body weight of the patient in need of treatment. A dose of the composition for treatment of metabolic diseases may be from about 1 mg/70 kg of body weight to about 100 mg/70 kg of body weight of the patient in need of treatment, and a maximum dose per day is about 200 mg/70 kg of body weight of the patient in need of treatment.

The present invention relates to a therapeutic combination comprising two or three of at least one NADPH oxidase inhibitor, at least one nitric oxide synthase inhibitor and at least one soluble guanylate cyclase agonist. More specifically, the invention relates to said therapeutic combination for use in the prevention or treatment of brain ischemia or for use in the prevention or treatment of ischemia-reperfusion injury. The invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising two or three of at least one NADPH oxidase inhibitor, at least one nitric oxide synthase inhibitor and at least one soluble guanylate cyclase agonist, and to said pharmaceutical composition for use in the prevention or treatment of brain ischemia or for use in the prevention or treatment of ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Biologically active cannabidiol analogs comprising a compound of the formula ##STR00001##
wherein one of R.sub.1 or R.sub.2 or both is/are the residue of a moiety formed by the reaction of an amino group of the amino acid ester of R.sub.1 or R.sub.2 or both with a dicarboxylic acid or a dicarboxylic acid derivative and the other R.sub.1 or R.sub.2 (in the case of the mono) is the residue of a dicarboxylic acid or dicarboxylic acid derivative or Hydrogen (H), (i.e. underivatized), and salts thereof. These CBD analogs are be useful in pain management in oncology and other clinical settings in which neuropathy is presented. Furthermore, these CBD-analogs are useful in blocking the addictive properties of opiates.
