摘要:
Antibodies, or antigen-binding portions thereof, to aspartyl (asparaginyl) β-hydroxylase are provided. The anti-aspartyl (asparaginyl) β-hydroxylase antibodies, or antigen-binding portions thereof, can modulate activity of aspartyl (asparaginyl) β-hydroxylase.
摘要:
The invention features a non-transgenic model of Alzheimer's Disease, method for inducing prolonged in vivo gene expression in a mammal, and methods of inhibiting Alzheimer's Disease-associated neuronal cell death.
摘要:
Disclosed are transgenic animals and transfected cell lines expressing a protein associated with Alzheimer's Disease, neuroectodermal tumors, malignant astrocytomas, and glioblastomas. Also disclosed is the use of such transgenic animals and transfected cell lines to screen potential drug candidates for treating or preventing Alzheimer's disease, neuroectodermal tumors, malignant astrocytomas, and glioblastomas. The invention also relates to new antisense oligonucleotides, ribozymes, triplex forming DNA and external guide sequences that can be used to treat or prevent Alzheimer's disease, neuroectodermal tumors, malignant astrocytomas, and glioblastomas.
摘要:
Nucleic acid molecule that comprise an incomplete hepatitis C and hepatitis B viral genome including specifically disclosed DNA sequences are disclosed. Pharmaceutical compositions that contain nucleic acid molecules comprising an incomplete hepatitis C and hepatitis B viral genome including a nucleotide sequence encoding a complete hepatitis C core protein and hepatitis B S gene protein operably linked to regulatory elements functional in human cells are disclosed. Methods of immunizing individuals susceptible to or infected by hepatitis B virus and/or hepatitis C virus comprising the step of administering such pharmaceutical compositions are disclosed.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to recombinant hosts expressing novel proteins associated with Alzheimer's Disease, neuroectodermal tumors, malignant astrocytomas, and glioblastomas. This invention is specifically directed to the recombinant hosts and vectors which contain the genes coding for the neuronal thread proteins. This invention is also directed to substantially pure neural thread protein, immunodiagnostic and molecular diagnostic methods to detect the presence of neural thread proteins, and the use of nucleic acid sequences which code for neural thread proteins in gene therapy.
摘要:
A method for the determination of a free protein subunit of a quaternary protein in a sample, which comprises:(a) contacting a sample with a first immunological binding partner which is or will be bound to a carrier, wherein the first immunological binding partner binds epitopic determinants bindable only on the free protein subunit;(b) incubating the components of step (a) for a period of time and under conditions sufficient to form an immune complex between the free protein subunit, the first immunological binding partner, and the carrier;(c) separating the carrier of step (b) from the sample;(d) adding to the carrier of step (c), a detectably-labeled second immunological binding partner, wherein the second immunological binding partner binds epitopic determinants bindable on both the free protein subunit and the quaternary protein; and(e) determining the detectably-labeled second immunological binding partner in the carrier or in liquid phase.
摘要:
A simultaneous sandwich immunoassay employing high-affinity monoclonal antibodies is disclosed. This simultaneous sandwich assembly has surprising sensitivity compared to forward and reverse sandwich assays for the detection of multi-determinant antigens such as hepatitis B surface antigen.
摘要:
This invention relates to methods for treating, preventing, or reversing brain disease or damage produced by chronic alcohol intake by administering a peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) agonist.
摘要:
The present specification provides, inter alia, methods of using Wnt and FZD proteins and genes, and Wnt- and FZD-specific antibodies and probes in diagnosis and treatment of cancer and for screening test compounds for an ability to treat cancer. Also disclosed are compounds useful for treating cancer such as liver cancer.
