A composition for reducing damage associated with oxidative phosphorylation. The composition comprises an upregulating compound mixture configured to upregulate an endogenous antioxidant system, an exogenous antioxidant mixture configured to inhibit oxidation of biomolecules by reactive oxygen species, and a mineral mixture configured to provide one or more cofactors to a endogenous antioxidant enzyme. The endogenous antioxidant system includes a Nrf2 transcription factors that promotes transcription of antioxidant genes.

The present invention concerns ophthalmic compositions comprising a combination of hyaluronic acid (HA) as a vehicle, and one or more prostaglandin analogues, such as latanoprost, as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), wherein the HA acts as a transporting vehicle (transporter) of the prostaglandin analogue into the eye. The invention also includes methods for the use of such ophthalmic compositions for reduction of intraocular pressure to treat, prevent, and/or delay the onset or recurrence of ocular hypertension and glaucoma. The ophthalmic compositions of the invention have improved stability, improved API solubility, and improved efficacy in reducing intraocular pressure.

The present disclosure is directed to use of MrgprX2 antagonists in the treatment of inflammatory disorders, e.g., inflammatory disorders of the skin. This invention is also directed to pharmaceutical compositions comprising a MrgprX2 antagonist and a pharmaceutically or orally acceptable carrier for administration.

This invention is in the field of medicinal chemistry. In particular, the invention relates to a new class of small-molecules having a quinoline or thioxanthenone (or similar) structure which function as autophagy inhibitors and/or histone deactylase inhibitors, and their use as therapeutics for the treatment of conditions characterized with aberrant autophagy activity and/or aberrant HDAC activity (e.g., cancer, pulmonary hypertension, diabetes, neurodegenerative disorders, aging, heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis, infectious diseases, conditions and symptoms caused by a viral infection (e.g., COVID-19)).
