| 摘要 |
Embodiments of the invention include methods of treating, preventing, and/or reduce the risk or severity of a condition selected from the group consisting of muscle wasting, muscle weakness, cachexia, and a combination thereof in an individual in need thereof. In some embodiments, particular small molecules are employed for treatment, prevention, and/or reduction in the risk of muscle wasting. In at least particular cases, the small molecules are inhibitors of STAT3. |

1. A method of treating a condition selected from the group consisting of muscle wasting, muscle weakness, cachexia, and a combination thereof in an individual that has muscle wasting or cachexia or that is at risk of having muscle wasting or cachexia, comprising the step of providing to the individual an effective amount of one or more compositions selected from the group consisting of N-(1′,2-dihydroxy-1,2′-binaphthalen-4′-yl)-4-methoxybenzenesulfonamide, N-(1′,2-dihydroxy-1,2′-binaphthalen-4′-yl)-4-methoxybenzenesulfonamide, N-(3,1′-Dihydroxy-[1,2′]binaphthalenyl-4′-yl)-4-methoxy-benzenesulfonamide, N-(4,1′-Dihydroxy-[1,2′]binaphthalenyl-4′-yl)-4-methoxy-benzenesulfonamide, N-(5,1′-Dihydroxy-[1,2′]binaphthalenyl-4′-yl)-4-methoxy-benzenesulfonamide, N-(6,1′-Dihydroxy-[1,2′]binaphthalenyl-4′-yl)-4-methoxy-benzenesulfonamide, N-(7,1′-Dihydroxy-[1,2′]binaphthalenyl-4′-yl)-4-methoxy-benzenesulfonamide, N-(8,1′-Dihydroxy-[1,2′]binaphthalenyl-4′-yl)-4-methoxy-benzenesulfonamide, 4-Bromo-N-(1,6′-dihydroxy-[2,2′]binaphthalenyl-4-yl)-benzenesulfonamide, 4-Bromo-N-[4-hydroxy-3-(1H-[1,2,4]triazol-3-ylsulfanyl)-naphthalen-1-yl]-benzenesulfonamide, Table 6-11, FIG. 15, FIG. 16, and a functional derivative thereof. |
