摘要:
Inoculation of ATM-deficient mice with probiotic microorganisms, such as L. johnsonii, changed immune parameters, decreased a marker of DNA damage and increased the lifespan of the mice. Compositions and methods described herein are useful for the treatment and prevention of Ataxia telangiectasia and other cancer-prone diseases, such as p53 deficiency-associated cancers. Compositions and methods of the present invention are also useful for treating and preventing radiation-induced toxicity to normal tissue in a subject being exposed to radiation. Compositions and methods of the invention can increase lifespan in a simple, non-invasive manner.
摘要:
Reduction of EMP2 expression and/or anti-EMP2 therapy reduces cancer stem cells in multiple types of cancer. For example, breast cancers stem cells were defined by the presence of HIF-1α, CD44 and ALDH. It is found that anti-EMP2 IgG1 can be used to reduce the numbers of cancer stem cells.
摘要:
The present invention relates to microbial UC pANCA antigens. The invention provides methods of diagnosing ulcerative colitis (UC) and methods of inducing tolerance in a pANCA-positive patient with UC using a histone H1-like antigen. The invention further provides methods of diagnosing UC and methods of inducing tolerance in a pANCA-positive patient with UC using a porin antigen. Methods of diagnosing UC and methods of inducing tolerance in a pANCA-positive patient with UC using a Bacteroides antigen also are provided.
摘要:
The present invention provides nucleic acid and amino acid sequence of the novel I-1 and I-2 polypeptides, which are associated with human inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Methods of diagnosing and treating inflammatory bowel disease using the IBD-associated I-1 and I-2 antigens also are provided.
