摘要:
The present invention provides nucleic acids encoding a novel ABC family cholesterol transporter, SSG. The herein-disclosed sequences can be used for any of a number of purposes, including for the diagnosis and treatment of cholesterol-associated disorders, including sitosterolemia, and for the identification of molecules that associate with and/or modulate the activity of SSG.
摘要:
Antigen binding proteins that interact with Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9) are described. Methods of treating hypercholesterolemia and other disorders by administering a pharmaceutically effective amount of an antigen binding protein to PCSK9 are described. Methods of detecting the amount of PCSK9 in a sample using an antigen binding protein to PCSK9 are described.
摘要:
The invention provides compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and methods for treating atherosclerosis, inflammation, thrombosis and other conditions and for decreasing or prevention of accumulation of cholesterol in a subject by modifying LCAT polypeptide.

摘要:
The invention provides methods and compositions relating to novel pentafluorophenylsulfonamide derivatives and analogs and their use as pharmacologically active agents. The compositions find particular use as pharmacological agents in the treatment of disease states, particularly cancer, vascular restenosis, microbial infections, and psoriasis, or as lead compounds for the development of such agents. The compositions include compounds of the general formula I:
摘要:
This invention provides methods and compositions that are useful for modulating cholesterol levels in a cell, and for identifying compounds that can tested for ability to modulate cholesterol levels in mammals. In vitro assays for prescreening to identify candidate therapeutic agents for modulation of cholesterol metabolism are provided. These methods involve analyzing the effect of a test compound on the binding of FXR to a ligand for FXR. Such ligands include, for example, bile acids, coactivators, and corepressors. The methods and compositions involve modulating FXR-mediated expression of genes involved in cholesterol metabolism.
