摘要:
Methods for screening for cancer are provided which are based on the direct interaction of BRCA1 with the mammalian SWI/SNF complex through association with its BRG1 subunit. Also provided are compositions for modulating cellular proliferation by modulating chromatin remodeling activity in mammalian cells which targets a BRG1 subunit of the SWI/SNF complex.
摘要:
The present invention relates to novel polynucleotides associated with the plasma membrane, the polypeptides encoded by these polynucleotides herein collectively referred to as nullplasma membrane associated antigens,null and antibodies that immunospecifically bind these polypeptides, and the use of such plasma membrane associated polynucleotides, antigens, and antibodies for detecting, treating, preventing and/or prognosing disorders related to these novel polypeptides. More specifically, isolated nucleic acid molecules are provided encoding novel plasma membrane associated polypeptides. Novel polypeptides and antibodies that bind to these polypeptides are provided. Also provided are vectors, host cells, and recombinant and synthetic methods for producing these plasma membrane associated polynucleotides, polypeptides, and/or antibodies. The invention further relates to diagnostic and therapeutic methods useful for diagnosing, treating, preventing and/or prognosing disorders related to the novel polypeptides of the invention. The invention further relates to screening methods for identifying agonists and antagonists of polynucleotides and polypeptides of the invention. The invention further relates to methods and/or compositions for inhibiting or promoting the production and/or function of the polypeptides of the invention.
摘要:
Computerized analysis of 2-D gels, both carrier ampholyte (CA) and immobilized pH gradient (IPG) based, of the proteins in tissue from esophageal tumors, reveals proteins which are different in tumor and control tissue.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a novel glucose transporter protein isolated from a breast cancer cell line, and to the gene encoding the protein. Detection of expression of the protein is useful as a diagnostic and staging marker in cancer. Control of expression of the protein is useful in the therapy of cancer. Furthermore, up-regulation of the protein is useful to overcome insulin resistance in non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus.
摘要:
The invention relates to new immunoassays using IgE type auto-antibodies specific for tumor antigens, especially prostate specific antigen (PSA). Such an assay can also be used to improve existing assays for PSA.
摘要:
A novel testis-specific gene expressed in human prostate cancer, designated 22P4F11, is described. Analysis of 22P4F11 mRNA expression in normal prostate, prostate tumor xenografts, and a variety of normal tissues indicates that the expression of this gene is testis specific in normal tissues. The 22P4F11 gene is also expressed in human prostate tumors, in some cases at high levels. A full length cDNA encoding 22P4F11 is provided. The 22P4F11 transcript and/or protein may represent a useful diagnostic marker and/or therapeutic target for prostate cancer.
摘要:
The invention provides relatively short immunogenic peptides, and biologically active variants thereof, associated with leukemia which elicit an immune response. Nucleic acids encoding the immunogenic peptides and antibodies specific for the peptides are also provided. The immunogenic peptides can be included in pharmaceutical compositions, such as cancer vaccines, and used for the treatment of cancer.
