Indazole compounds for treating various diseases and pathologies are disclosed. More particularly, the present disclosure concerns the use of an indazole compound or analogs thereof, in the treatment of disorders characterized by the activation of Wnt pathway signaling (e.g., cancer, abnormal cellular proliferation, angiogenesis, Alzheimer's disease, lung disease, fibrotic disorders, cartilage (chondral) defects, and osteoarthritis), the modulation of cellular events mediated by Wnt pathway signaling, and neurological conditions/disorders/diseases linked to overexpression of DYRK1A.

A class of fluorine-substituted indazole compounds and uses thereof having the general formula depicted below ##STR00001##
in which C1 is ##STR00002##
where ##STR00003##
is the bond through which C1 is attached to L, and C2 is ##STR00004##
where ##STR00005##
is the bond through which C2 is attached to indazole, and pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds. The compounds and pharmaceutical compositions of the invention can be used as soluble guanylate cyclase simulators.

The present invention is directed to compounds according to formula,

(R.sup.2R.sup.3)-A.sup.1-c(A.sup.2-A.sup.3-A.sup.4-A.sup.5-A.sup.6-A.sup.7-A.sup.8-A.sup.9)-A.sup.10-R.sup.1,

and pharmaceutically-acceptable salts thereof that act as ligands for one or more of the melanocortin receptors, to methods of using such compounds to treat mammals and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds.

The present disclosure provides compositions comprising ephedrine sulfate ready for immediate use in a clinical setting, and methods of making and using same.

The present invention provides compounds of formula (I): compositions comprising such compounds; the use of such compounds in therapy (for example in the treatment or prevention of a disease or condition in which plasma kallikrein activity is implicated); and methods of treating patients with such compounds; wherein A, B, W, X and Y are as defined herein. ##STR00001##

Genotyping methods and compositions for selecting patients with cardiovascular disease who will benefit from treatment with HDL-raising or HDL mimicking agent, in particular with a CETP inhibitor/modulator

The present invention generally to methods of treating subjects suffering from a cardiac condition or having a risk factor for developing a cardiac condition by administering an ELA peptide or fusion protein to a subject in need. The invention relates to fusion proteins of Fc-ELA-32 and Fc-ELA-21 that exhibit improved properties for use as therapeutic agents, e.g. in the treatment of cardiac conditions. In addition, the present invention relates to polynucleotides encoding such fusion proteins, and vectors and host cells comprising such polynucleotides. The invention further relates to methods for producing the fusion proteins of the invention, and to methods of using them in the treatment of disease.

The present disclosure relates generally to compounds and compositions, and their use as kinase inhibitors.

The present disclosure relates to the use of angiotensin II, angiotensin III, or angiotensin IV in therapeutic methods for the treatment of hypotension, especially catecholamine-resistant hypotension.
