摘要:
Methods are provided for identifying agents that modulate signaling mediated by transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) and members of the TGF-β family, such as bone morphogenic protein (BMP). Such agents may be identified using screens that evaluate candidate agents for the ability to modulate Smad protein degradation. Agents identified as described herein may be used to augment or inhibit signaling mediated by one or more TGF-β family members in a variety of cell types and for therapeutic purposes.
摘要:
Compositions and methods are provided for treating NF-λB-related conditions. In particular, the invention provides a stimulus-inducible IKK signalsome, and components and variants thereof. An IKK signalsome or component thereof may be used, for example, to identify antibodies and other modulating agents that inhibit or activate signal transduction via the NF-λB cascade. IKK signalsome, components thereof and/or modulating agents may also be used for the treatment of diseases associated with NF-λB activation.
摘要:
This invention generally relates to methods for treating or preventing an inflammatory disease or disorder comprising administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount of a Pyrazoloanthrone Derivative having the following structure: Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R1 and R2 are as defined herein.

摘要:
Compounds having activity as selective inhibitors of JNK are disclosed. The compounds of this invention are pyrazoloanthrone and derivatives thereof having structure (I) wherein R1 and R2 are as defined herein. Such compounds have utility in the treatment of a wide range of conditions that are responsive to JNK inhibition. Thus, methods of treating such conditions are also disclosed, as are pharmaceutical compositions containing one or more compounds of the above compounds.
