Compositions and methods for the treatment of cancer
The present invention discloses anti-cancer compositions, and associated methods, including an anti-cancer composition comprising: a cellular energy inhibitor having the structure according to formula I ##STR00001## wherein X is selected from the group consisting of: a nitro, an imidazole, a halide, sulfonate, a carboxylate, an alkoxide, and amine oxide; and R is selected from the group consisting of: OR′, N(R″).sub.2, C(O)R′″, C1-C6 alkyl, C6-C12 aryl, C1-C6 heteroalkyl, a C6-C12 heteroaryl, H, and an alkali metal; where R′ represents H, alkali metal, C1-C6 alkyl, C6-C12 aryl or C(O)R′″, R″ represents H, C1-C6 alkyl, or C6-C12 aryl, and R′″ represents H, C1-C20 alkyl or C6-C12 aryl. The anti-cancer composition can additionally comprise at least one sugar, which stabilizes the cellular energy inhibitor by substantially preventing the inhibitor from hydrolyzing. Also, the anti-cancer composition can comprise a hexokinase inhibitor. Further, the anti-cancer composition can comprise a biological buffer that is present in an amount sufficient to at least partially deacidify the cellular energy inhibitor and neutralize metabolic by-products of the cellular energy inhibitor.
DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS AND THERAPY SELECTION FOR RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS AND PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS
The present invention provides methods for differentially diagnosing rheumatoid arthritis (RA) versus psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in an individual. Specifically, the method relates to detecting the presence or absence of distinct alleles of the PDE4D and PDE4B genes which are associated with either RA or PsA. Also provided herein are methods for selecting an individual who should receive or who is likely to respond to a treatment with a PDE4 inhibitor. The present invention also provides methods for treating an individual with RA or PsA.

Methods and compositions for treating a disease condition in a subject
Methods for treating a disease condition in a subject are provided. The subject methods include selectively modulating at least one biological activity of advential tissue in a manner effective to treat the disease condition. Also provided are compositions, kits and systems for use in practicing the subject methods.
COMBINATION THERAPY OF A TYPE II ANTI-CD20 ANTIBODY WITH A SELECTIVE BCL-2 INHIBITOR
The present invention is directed to a combination therapy involving a type II anti-CD20 antibody and a selective Bcl-2 inhibitor for the treatment of a patient suffering from cancer, particularly, a CD20-expressing cancer.

MICROWAVEABLE FROZEN LOBSTER TAIL CONTAINING CANNABIS AND METHOD OF DELIVERY OF CANNABIS COMPOUNDS
In one embodiment, a minimally-processed microwaveable lobster product including a lobster tail, a fat-containing composition, and a microwaveable package. The lobster tail has a shell containing lobster meat. The shell has a longitudinal axis with at least two cuts formed generally parallel to the longitudinal axis, the tail meat is also split longitudinal. The fat-containing composition is disposed in the ventral region of the lobster tail. The microwaveable package has first and second resilient layers. The first resilient layer is disposed under the lobster tail and contacts the lobster tail. The second resilient layer is disposed above the lobster tail and contacts the lobster tail and the fat-containing composition.
In another embodiment the lobster tail is prepared with Cannabis missed with the fat-containing composition. This embodiment is similarly microwaveable.
