Provided herein are methods of using 4-oxo-2-phenyl-4H-chromene-7,8-diyl bis(methylcarbamate) and derivatives thereof for treating or preventing a bone disorder. The methods include administering to the subject an effective amount of a compound of Formula I or a pharmaceutical composition as described herein. The bone disorder can include, for example, osteoporosis. Also provided herein are methods of inhibiting asparagine endopeptidase (AEP) activity in a cell and methods of promoting bone growth, increasing bone density, or increasing bone strength in a subject. Novel mechanisms of action in treating and preventing bone disorders are provided herein.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising 4-hexylresorcinol(4-HR) as an active ingredient for prevention or treatment of a bone disease, and a formulation thereof. The composition comprising 4-hexylresorcinol (4-HR) as an active ingredient, or an ointment thereof was found to improve bone thickness, density, and strength and control bone remodeling by promoting the differentiation of osteoblasts and suppressing the proliferation and differentiation of osteoclasts in osteoporosis-induced animal models. Thus, the composition or ointment comprising 4-hexylresorcinol (4-HR) as an active ingredient can be provided as a therapeutic agent for bone diseases including bone fracture, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoporosis.

Provided is a novel anti-Plexin-A1 agonist antibody that promotes dendritic cell contraction. Also provided is a pharmaceutical composition comprising such an antibody and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

The invention relates to a liquid pharmaceutical formulation comprising an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof, cyclodextrin and methionine. In addition, it relates to a method for reducing precipitation of an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof in a liquid pharmaceutical formulation through addition of methionine and cyclodextrin. In particular, the liquid pharmaceutical formulations comprises an anti-sclerostin antibody, hydroxypropyl-gamma cyclodextrin and methionine and may be used in the treatment of a bone disorder associated with at least one of low bone formation, low bone mineral density, low bone mineral content, low bone mass, low bone quality and low bone strength, and especially for treating osteoporosis. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method of reducing inflammation at injection site in a mammalian subject comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a liquid pharmaceutical formulation comprising an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof, cyclodextrin and methionine.

The present invention relates to sustained-release formulations and dosage forms of ruxolitinib, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which are useful in the treatment of Janus kinase-associated diseases such as myeloproliferative disorders.

The present invention provides methods of maintaining or increasing mobility and/or vitality by administering a composition comprising one or more polar lipids, in addition to uses, compositions, and medicaments comprising one or more polar lipids to maintain or increase mobility and/or vitality.

The present invention relates to Lactobacillus plantarum NK3 and Bifidobacterium longum NK49, which are novel lactic acid bacteria and, more particularly, to a composition comprising novel lactic acid bacteria useful for prevention and treatment of inflammatory diseases.

Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to the field of treating and preventing osteoporosis, with particular embodiments directed to a method of ameliorating, treating, or preventing osteoporosis in a human subject employing tomatidine, xylitol, rapamycin, etc., as well as modifying an individuals microbiome to reduce the likelihood of osteoporosis.

The present invention provides compositions and methods for modulating one or more phenotypes of a macrophage-related cell, e.g., a macrophage. The invention further provides methods of treating disease by modulating macrophage phenotype. Representative phenotypes include pro-inflammatory, anti-inflammatory, immunogenic, tolerogenic, tissue-destructive, tissue restorative, cytotoxic, migratory, bone-resorbing, pro-angiogenic, anti-angiogenic, suppressor, antigen presentation, or phagocytic. Representative diseases include atherosclerosis, arthritis, and multiple sclerosis.
