摘要:
The present invention is directed to antibodies binding to the MUC1 cytoplasmic domain and methods of using such antibodies to treat, diagnose, detect and monitor cancers that express the MUC1 antigen.
摘要:
Methods for improved administration and dosing of DPD inhibitors in combination with 5-FU and/or 5-FU prodrugs are provided, comprising first administering to a patient in need thereof a DPD inhibitor that substantially eliminates activity of the enzyme and thereafter administering 5-FU or a 5-FU prodrug, wherein the level of 5-FU or 5-FU prodrug is in substantial excess of DPD inhibitor in the patient.
摘要:
This invention relates to regulation of cell signaling, cell growth, and more particularly to the regulation of cancer or immune cell growth. The invention provides methods of inhibiting interactions between MUC1 and BH3-containing proapoptotic proteins, methods of inhibiting MUC1 expression, and methods of promoting apoptosis. Also provided are screening methods for compounds that inhibit interactions between MUC1 and BH3-containing proapoptotic proteins and pharmaceutical compositions of the same.
摘要:
The invention provides for peptides from the MUC1 cytoplasmic domain and methods of use therefor. These peptides can inhibit MUC1 oligomerization, thereby preventing tumor cell growth, inducing tumor cell apoptosis and necrosis of tumor tissue in vivo.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to improved compositions for cellular delivery of peptides. Using segments of only 3-5 positively-charged residues, one can effectively transfer peptides, including therapeutic peptides, into cells. Also provided are modified peptides such as those include stapled and cyclized peptide technology, as well as peptoids/peptidomimetics.
摘要:
The invention provides methods of identifying and making compounds that inhibit the interaction between MUC1 and either or both of HSP70 and HSP90. Also embraced by the invention are in vivo and in vitro methods of inhibiting such an interaction.
摘要:
The invention provides methods of identifying and making compounds that inhibit the interaction between MUC1 and either p53 or TBP. Also embraced by the invention are in vivo and in vitro methods of inhibiting such an interaction and of inhibiting the expression of MUC1 by a cell.
摘要:
The present invention provides compositions and methods for inhibiting the binding of the carboxy-terminus of MUC1 to PDZ domain(s) and to enhance the sensitivity of MUC1 expressing cancer cells to chemotherapeutic agents.
摘要:
The present invention provides for the use of creatine compounds and hyperplastic inhibitory agents for prophylactic and/or therapeutic treatments of undesirable cell growth, e.g. tumors. The present invention provides methods of using creatine compounds, in combination with a hyperplastic inhibitory agent, to inhibit the growth of undesirable cells in a subject. The present invention is based, at least in part, on the discovery that creatine compounds and hyperplastic inhibitory agents, such as inhibitory agents, additively and synergistically combine to inhibit cell growth. The present invention further pertains to compositions for inhibiting undesirable cell growth in a subject. The compositions of the present invention include an effective amount of the creatine compound and a hyperplastic inhibitory agent in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Other aspects of the invention include packaged creatine compounds and inhibitory agents. The packaged compounds and agents also include instructions for using the creatine compound/inhibitory agent combination for inhibiting undesirable cell growth in a patient or instructions for using the compounds and agents, in selected quantities, in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
