The invention pertains to the use of therapeutically effective amounts of (a) (i) vitamin C and/or selenium and (ii) at least one of docosahexaenoic acid (22:6; DHA), eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5; EPA) and docosapentaenoic acid (22:5; DPA), or esters thereof; or (b) (i) vitamin C and/or selenium and (iii) one or more of uridine and cytidine, or salts, phosphates, acyl derivatives or esters thereof; or (c) a combination of (i), (ii) and (iii); wherein (a), (b) or (c) optionally further comprises vitamin E, in the manufacture of a product for therapeutically improving synaptic connectivity and/or therapeutically supporting memory and/or cognitive function in a human subject in need thereof

Scope: The invention relates to organic and bioorganic combinatorial chemistry and pharmacia, namely to new combinatorial library of dipiridamol derivative and supramolecular structures based on them, which when being used not separated in individual components, have high bioactivity as a means of stem cell fission encouragement as pharmaceutical compositions combined with phosphodiesterase inhibitors and histone deacetylase inhibitors, as well as pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The composition can also be used to struggle with resistant microorganisms by establishing their sensitivity to antibiotics.

Herein, is taught a Eumelanin-inspired antimicrobial capable of overcoming methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MSRA) and Enterococcus faecalis. By ligating quaternary ammonium functionalized “arms” on to a Eumelanin-inspired indole, with intrinsic antimicrobial activity, a cell wall destroying antimicrobial agent was prepared. It also has antifungal effects against Candida albicans. Further, Eumelanin-inspired phenyleneethynylene (EIPE) derivatives EIPE-1 and EIPE-HCl are novel compounds. EIPE structure serves as scaffolding for functional groups that may have antibacterial properties. Both gram-positive and gram-negative organisms are screened against EIPE derivatives using a standardized Kirby Bauer disk agar diffusion assay. These results showed that EIPE-1 has antibacterial properties against some pathogenic gram-positive organisms.
