Title:	Use of targeted oxidative therapeutic formulation in bone regeneration
Abstract:	A pharmaceutical formulation and its use. The pharmaceutical formulation contains peroxidic species or reaction products resulting from oxidation of an alkene, such as geraniol, by an oxygen-containing oxidizing agent, such as ozone; a penetrating solvent, such as dimethylsulfoxide (\"DMSO\"); a dye containing a chelated metal, such as hematoporphyrin; and an aromatic redox compound, such as benzoquinone. The pharmaceutical formulation is used to effectively stimulate bone regeneration and increase osteoblastic activity in a patient.

Patent Claims:	1. A method for stimulating bone regeneration in a patient, comprising: administering to the patient an effective amount of a pharmaceutical formulation comprising: peroxidic species or reaction products resulting from oxidation of menthol or an alkene by an oxygen-containing oxidizing agent, wherein the oxygen-containing oxidizing agent is selected from the group consisting of singlet oxygen, oxygen in its triplet state, superoxide anion, periodate, hydroxyl radical, hydrogen peroxide, alkyl peroxide, carbamyl peroxide, benzoyl peroxide, oxygen bound to a transition element, and ozone, and wherein the alkene is selected from the group consisting of terpineol, citronellol, nerol, linalool, phytol, geraniol, perillyl alcohol, menthol, geranylgeraniol and farnesol, and wherein the peroxidic species or reaction products resulting from oxidation of menthol or the alkene is from about 0.001% to about 30% by weight of the pharmaceutical formulation; a penetrating solvent, wherein the penetrating solvent is selected from the group consisting of dimethylsulfoxide, sterol, lecithin, propylene glycol, and methylsulfonylmethane, and wherein the penetrating solvent is from about 50% to about 99% by weight of the pharmaceutical formulation; a dye containing a chelated divalent or trivalent metal, wherein the dye is selected from the group consisting of porphyrin, rose bengal, chlorophyllin, hemin, corrins, texaphrin, methylene blue, hematoxylin, eosin, erythrosin, lactoflavin, anthracene dye, hypericin, methylcholanthrene, neutral red, phthalocyanine, fluorescein, eumelanin, and pheomelanin, and wherein the dye is from about 0.1% to about 30% by weight of the pharmaceutical formulation; and an aromatic redox compound, wherein the redox compound is selected from the group consisting of substituted or unsubstituted benzoquinone, naphthoquinone, and anthroquinone, and wherein the aromatic redox compound is from about 0.01% to about 20% by weight of the pharmaceutical formulation. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the alkene is in a liquid form, in a solution, or in a dispersion. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the alkene is contained in a fixed oil, an ester, a fatty acid, or an ether. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the penetrating solvent is a liquid, micelle membrane, liposome, emollient, or vapor. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the penetrating solvent is dimethylsulfoxide ("DMSO"). 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the dye is selected from the group consisting of porphyrin, rose bengal, chlorophyllin, and a mixture thereof. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the metal is iron. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the metal is selected from the group consisting of copper, manganese, tin, magnesium, and strontium. 9. The method of claim 1, further comprising an electron donor. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the electron donor is ascorbic acid or a pharmaceutical salt thereof. 11. A method for stimulating bone regeneration in a patient, comprising: administering to the patient an effective amount of a pharmaceutical formulation comprising: peroxidic species or reaction products resulting from oxidation of geraniol by a mixture of ozone and oxygen; dimethylsulfoxide ("DMSO"); a dye containing a chelated divalent or trivalent metal, wherein the dye comprises a mixture of hematoporphyrin and rose bengal or a mixture of hematoporphyrin and chlorophyllin; and methylnaphthoquinone. 12. A method for increasing osteoblastic activity in a patient, comprising: administering to the patient an effective amount of a pharmaceutical formulation comprising: peroxidic species or reaction products resulting from oxidation of menthol or an alkene by an oxygen-containing oxidizing agent, wherein the oxygen-containing oxidizing agent is selected from the group consisting of singlet oxygen, oxygen in its triplet state, superoxide anion, periodate, hydroxyl radical, hydrogen peroxide, alkyl peroxide, carbamyl peroxide, benzoyl peroxide, oxygen bound to a transition element, and ozone, and wherein the alkene is selected from the group consisting of terpineol, citronellol, nerol, linalool, phytol, geraniol, perillyl alcohol, menthol, geranylgeraniol and farnesol, and wherein the peroxidic species or reaction products resulting from oxidation of menthol or the alkene is from about 0.001% to about 30% by weight of the pharmaceutical formulation; a penetrating solvent, wherein the penetrating solvent is selected from the group consisting of dimethylsulfoxide, sterol, lecithin, propylene glycol, and methylsulfonylmethane, and wherein the penetrating solvent is from about 50% to about 99% by weight of the pharmaceutical formulation; a dye containing a chelated divalent or trivalent metal, wherein the dye is selected from the group consisting of porphyrin, rose bengal, chlorophyllin, hemin, corrins, texaphrin, methylene blue, hematoxylin, eosin, erythrosin, lactoflavin, anthracene dye, hypericin, methylcholanthrene, neutral red, phthalocyanine, fluorescein, eumelanin, and pheomelanin, and wherein the dye is from about 0.1% to about 30% by weight of the pharmaceutical formulation; and an aromatic redox compound, wherein the redox compound is selected from the group consisting of substituted or unsubstituted benzoquinone, naphthoquinone, and anthroquinone, and wherein the aromatic redox compound is from about 0.01% to about 20% by weight of the pharmaceutical formulation. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the alkene is in a liquid form, in a solution, or in a dispersion. 14. The method of claim 12, wherein the alkene is contained in a fixed oil, an ester, a fatty acid, or an ether. 15. The method of claim 12, wherein the penetrating solvent is a liquid, micelle membrane, liposome, emollient, or vapor. 16. The method of claim 12, wherein the penetrating solvent is dimethylsulfoxide ("DMSO"). 17.
