Method for treating inflammation
A method of treating inflammation includes administering an anti-inflammatory agent to a patient in need thereof. The anti-inflammatory agent is selected from Compound 1 ([(2-{[3-(4-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)piperidin-1-yl]carbonyl}phenyl) amino] acetic acid) and Compound 2 (Ethyl-1-(5-cyano-2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-oxo-5-phenoxy-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylate). Compound 1 and Compound 2 selectively inhibit COX-2 enzyme, without substantially inhibiting COX-1 enzyme, in contrast to many other NSAIDs.

METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR INDUCING DIFFERENTIATION OF HUMAN BROWN ADIPOCYTE PROGENITORS
This disclosure relates to compositions and methods for recruiting brown adipocytes in vitro and in vivo from brown adipocyte progenitor cells found in human skeletal muscle. Methods for treating metabolic disease are also provided. Additionally, methods for treating hypothermia are provided. In some embodiments, the brown adipocyte recruiter is a human protein or peptide. In other embodiments the brown adipocyte recruiter may be a non-human protein or peptide. In still other embodiments, the brown adipocyte recruiter is a small molecule or natural product.
Drug target for preventing pathologic calcium overload in cardiomyocytes and methods of screening for same
The present invention provides, inter alia, methods for identifying a candidate agent that can treat or ameliorate the effects of a heart condition caused by the effects of abnormal beta-adrenergic receptor activation on calcium levels in cardiomyocytes in a subject. Compositions that include the candidate agents identified by the methods disclosed, and methods of treating or ameliorating the effects of a heart condition in a subject by administering to the subject the candidate agents identified by the methods disclosed, are also provided.
