1. To understand the clearance mechanism of luseogliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, we investigated its human metabolite profile and metabolic enzymes responsible for the primary metabolic pathways in human using reaction phenotyping. 2.

1. We investigated the metabolism and disposition of luseogliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, in rats and dogs, as well as in vitro metabolism in rats, dogs and humans. In addition, we studied its localization in the rat kidney.

One minute downward pressure on the tip of any one of the front 3 teeth (1st incisor, 2nd incisor, and canine) at the right and left sides of the upper and lower jaw by a wooden toothpick induced temporary disappearance (20 min approximately 4 hours) of abnormally increased pain parameters (pain grading, Substance P, & TXB2), and cancer parameters (Telomere, Integrin alpha5beta1, Oncogene C-fos Ab2, etc. of Astrocytoma, Glioblastoma, squamous cell carcinoma of esophagus, adenocarcinoma of lung, breast cancer, adenocarcinoma of colon, prostate cancer). The effect included temporary disappearance of headache, toothache, chest and abdominal pain, and backache, often with improved memory & concentration.

TS-011, a potent and selective inhibitor of 20-HETE synthesis, has been described as providing significant benefits in animal stroke models. However, no studies have investigated changes in brain 20-HETE levels after cerebral ischemia. Also lacking are studies of TS-011 pharmacodynamics with respect to brain 20-HETE levels that may explain the benefits of TS-011 in animal models of ischemic stroke.
