Abstract

Compositions contenant un générateur d'oxyde nitrique et leurs procédés d'utilisation pour le traitement de l'oeil sec. Les composés de l'invention favorisent la production de NO, lorsqu'ils sont administrés dans l'oeil. On pense que NO stimule la production de mucine dans l'éphitélium conjonctival humain, et qu'ils sont donc utiles dans le traitement de l'oeil sec. De plus, le NOG de l'invention doit stimuler la production et/ou la sécrétion de mucine dans l'épithélium conjonctival et/ou dans les cellules caliciformes oculaires, à la suite d'une application locale sur l'oeil. Les NOG peuvent être par exemple: nitroglycérine, nitroprussiates, spermine NONOate, (+/-)-(E)-4-éthyl-2-[(E)-hydroxyimino]-5-nitro-3-hexèneamide (FK-409), 1-hydroxy-2-oxo-3-(N-méthyl-3-aminopropyl)-3-méthyl 1-triazène (NOC-7), S-nitrosoglutathione, 4-phényl-3-furoxancarbonitrile, S-nitroso-N-acétyl-pénicillamine (SNAP), dinitrate d'isosorbide, GEA 3264, GEA 5145, GEA 3175, trinitate de glycéryle, molsidomine; 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1), hydroxylamine, linsidomine, NOC-18, CHF-2363, pirsidomine, N,N'-diméthylhexanediamine (DMHD/NO), 2,2-diéthyl-1-nitroso-oxyhydrazine (DEA/NO), Et 2NN(O)NONa, NO-cétoprofène, NO-dicoflénac, NO-flurbiprofène. Le NOG idéal de l'invention est la molsidomine.
