This invention pertains generally to prostacyclin formulations and methods for their use in promoting vasodilation, inhibiting platelet aggregation and thrombus formation, stimulating thrombolysis, inhibiting cell proliferation (including vascular remodeling), providing cytoprotection, preventing atherogenesis and inducing angiogenesis.

The present invention relates to inhibitors of histone deacetylases, in particular HDAC8, that are useful for the treatment of cancer and other diseases and disorders, as well as the synthesis and applications of said inhibitors.

The present invention relates to inhibitors of histone deacetylases, in particular HDAC8, that are useful for the treatment of cancer and other diseases and disorders, as well as the synthesis and applications of said inhibitors.

Provided are inhibitors of pathogenic, bacterial metabolite production and conjugates of the inhibitors. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions containing the inhibitors or conjugates and methods of using the same.

The present invention relates to dipeptidyl ketoamide m-methoxyphenyl derivatives and their use in the treatment of diseases and conditions associated with elevated calpain activity, such as heart injury caused by infarction, ischemia with or without reperfusion, neurodegenerative disorders, malaria, diabetic nephropathy, neurotoxicity induced by HIV virus, cancer, and fibrotic diseases.

The present disclosure provides compositions, methods, and devices for sensing, detecting, and/or selectively capturing phosphate from water. An exemplary method includes: contacting a ligand or a rare earth metal complex of a ligand as described herein with an aqueous phosphate-containing medium at a pH of 5 to 12 under conditions sufficient to bind phosphate (e.g., reversibly bind phosphate). In certain embodiments, the method further includes releasing the bound phosphate by contacting the bound phosphate complex with an aqueous medium at a pH of 0 to 4 under conditions sufficient to release the bound phosphate.
