摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to compositions and methods for anti-HIV (anti-CD4 binding site) potent VRC01-like (PVL) antibodies targeted to gp120 having an amino acid substitution at a residue in the anti-CD4 binding site PVL antibody that is equivalent to Phe43 in CD4, these antibodies having improved potency and breadth.
摘要:
Treatment of neurodegenerative diseases is achieved using small molecule purine scaffold compounds that inhibit Hsp90 and that possess the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier or are otherwise delivered to the brain.
摘要:
Isolated antibodies have been characterized which show specific affinity to a repeating conformational epitope of a protofibril form of the human β-amyloid peptide as compare to low molecular weight forms of β-amyloid peptide. These isolated antibodies and related pharmaceutically effective compositions may be useful in the therapeutic and/or prophylactic treatment of Alzheimer's disease by effectively blocking the ability of the protofibril form of β-amyloid peptide to form fibril forms linked with complications associated with Alzheimer's disease. The isolated antibodies of the present invention are also useful in various diagnostic assays and associated kits.
摘要:
The invention provides for delivery, engineering and optimization of systems, methods, and compositions for manipulation of sequences and/or activities of target sequences. Provided are delivery systems and tissues or organ which are targeted as sites for delivery. Also provided are vectors and vector systems some of which encode one or more components of a CRISPR complex, as well as methods for the design and use of such vectors. Also provided are methods of directing CRISPR complex formation in eukaryotic cells to ensure enhanced specificity for target recognition and avoidance of toxicity and to edit or modify a target site in a genomic locus of interest to alter or improve the status of a disease or a condition.
摘要:
The invention is directed to compositions and methods for treating or reducing the likelihood of the development of epilepsy in an individual. The method comprises administering to the central nervous system of an individual in need of such treatment a therapeutically effective amount of an agent capable of increasing the expression and/or activity of miR-128.
摘要:
The present invention provides STING crystals. The present invention also provides STING modulators that interact with sites present in and/or defined by such crystals. The present invention also provides methods of making and using such crystals and modulators. Other aspects and/or features of the present invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art, reading the present specification.
摘要:
The invention relates to compositions, methods, kits, and assays related to the use and/or exploitation of isomers of cGAMP as well as the structure of the enzyme cGAS.
摘要:
The invention relates to methods for the diagnosis and prognosis of hepatic disorder and associated pathologies as well as of a solid proliferative disorder in a mammalian subject. More specifically, the methods of the invention are based on determining the expression, methylation of ARTS as well as histone trimethylation. The invention further provides therapeutic methods for treating said disorders.
