摘要:
The invention concerns novel methods for determining the toxic potential of test compounds, as well as equipment and kits for implementing said methods. The invention also concerns methods for generating nucleic acid sequences for use as genetic markers of toxicity. The invention is based in particular on the constitution of differential libraries of nucleic acids, characteristic of situations wherein the viability and/or cell proliferation are disrupted, and for demonstrating that said libraries are useful for very dependably assessing with high degree of sensitivity the toxic profile of compounds. The invention is particularly useful in the pharmaceutical industry, for analysing the toxic profile of molecules to be used for pharmaceutical preparation and/or in pharmaceutical compositions.
摘要:
The invention relates to the field of biology, genetics and medicine. In particular, the invention relates to novel methods for the detection, characterisation and/or treatment (or management) of neurodegenerative pathologies. The invention also relates to methods for the identification or screening of compounds active in the aforementioned pathologies. The invention further relates to the compounds, genes, cells, plasmids or compositions which are used to carry out the above-mentioned methods. The invention is based on the identification of the role of phosphodiesterase 4B, the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor (PBR) and GABA(A)-type GABA receptors in neurodegenerative pathologies. In addition, the invention outlines the use of same as therapeutic, diagnostic or experimental markers or targets for said disorders.
摘要:
The invention concerns a method for identifying and/or cloning nucleic acid regions representing qualitative differences associated with alternative splicing events and/or with insertions, deletions located in RNA transcribed genome regions, between two physiological situations, comprising either hybridisation of RNA derived from the test situation with cDNA's derived from the reference situation and/or reciprocally, or double-strand hybridisation of cDNA derived from the test situation with cDNA's derived from the reference situation; and identifying and/or cloning nucleic acids representing qualitative differences. The invention also concerns compositions or banks of nucleic acids representing qualitative differences between two physiological situations, obtainable by the above method, and their use as probe, for identifying genes or molecules of interest, or still for example in methods of pharmacogenomics, and profiling of molecules relative to their therapeutic and/or toxic effects. The invention further concerns the use of dysregulation of splicing RNA as markers for predicting molecule toxicity and/or efficacy, and as markers in pharmacogenomics.

摘要:
The invention concerns novel compositions and methods for detecting pathological events. More particularly, it concerns methods for detecting in vitro the presence of a pathology or a pathological event in a subject, which consists in taking a sample of the subject's blood cells and in determining the presence, in said sample, blood cells having a physiological condition characteristic of the pathology. The invention also concerns instruments, kits and compositions for implementing said methods, and their used in the field of human and animal health care, or in experimental research for example.
