Compounds of the general formula

##STR00001##

are disclosed with activity towards treating diseases related to inflammation, such as cancer, neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods of use are also described.

Compounds of the present invention and pharmaceutically acceptable compositions thereof, are useful as modulators of ATP-Binding Cassette (“ABC”) transporters or fragments thereof, including Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (“CFTR”). The present invention also relates to methods of treating ABC transporter mediated diseases using compounds of the present invention.

Provided herein are methods and compositions for treating disease-states associated with presence of increased number of ErbB4+ pro-inflammatory macrophages in a subject in need thereof. The methods include providing an activator of ErbB4 and administering a therapeutically effective amount of the activator to the subject. The compositions include an activator of ErbB4. In one embodiment, the activation of ErbB4 is Neuregulin-4.

The present invention relates to phenyl amino pyrimidine compounds which are inhibitors of protein kinases including JAK kinases. In particular the compounds are selective for JAK2 kinases. The kinase inhibitors can be used in the treatment of kinase associated diseases such as immunological and inflammatory diseases including organ transplants; hyperproliferative diseases including cancer and myeloproliferative diseases; viral diseases; metabolic diseases; and vascular diseases.

Methods of synthetically producing, formulating and using secretoglobins SCGB1A1, SCGB3A2, and SCGB3A1 are provided. Methods of using secretoglobins SCGB1A1, SCGB3A2, and SCGB3A1 as therapeutic agents to affect long term patient outcomes, such as preventing severe respiratory exacerbations of underlying conditions that require medical intervention, including hospitalization are provided. Methods of producing recombinant human secretoglobins, analytical methods, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods of use to prevent the long term sequelae of acute and chronic respiratory conditions are provided.

The present invention relates to a composition and health functional food for preventing and treating a respiratory inflammation disease using a mixed herbal mixture. Through various experiments, for example, determination of the cell number of BAL (bronchoalveolar lavage) (Experimental Example 1); Determination of CD11b+/Gr-1+ ratio in leukocyte within BAL fluid (Experimental Example 2); Determination of expressed RNA level of inflammatory cytokines in lung tissue (Experimental Example 3); Determination of expressed RNA level of inflammatory cytokines in BALF (Experimental Example 4); Lung histology (Experimental Example 5); Brief Clinical test (Experimental Example 7) etc, it has been verified that the inventive combined extract showed more potent inhibiting effect on respiratory inflammation disease than each herb extract. Therefore, the herbal extract of the present invention can be usefully used in a pharmaceutical composition, health functional food, and health supplement food for preventing and treating respiratory inflammation disease.
