摘要:
The present invention provides antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof that specifically hind the ENDO180 polypeptide and are internalized thereby, to conjugates comprising the molecules, to compositions comprising the antibodies and conjugates and to methods of using the same for delivery of therapeutic agents to cells that express the ENDO180 polypeptide on the surface of the cell for treating cell proliferative diseases or disorders and fibrosis, and for controlling (modulating) tumor progression.
摘要:
The present invention provides novel molecules, compositions, methods and uses for treating microvascular disorders, eye diseases and respiratory conditions based upon inhibition of the RTP801 gene and/or protein.
摘要:
There are provided polynucleotides that are modulated by hypoxic conditions. The disclosure includes such genes and proteins as well as analogs, salts and functional derivatives of such proteins, and DNA encoding such analogs, and methods of use. Methods for treating the effects of stroke, hypoxia and/or ischemia by regulating such genes or proteins are also disclosed. The presence of hypoxia or a hypoxia-associated pathology may be diagnosed by screening for the presence of at least one polynucleotide having the nucleic acid sequence according to the present invention. Methods of regulating hypoxia associated pathologies are also provided.
摘要:
The invention is directed to a process of identifying a compound capable of inhibiting the activity of a human Ax1 receptor that comprises contacting the Ax1 receptor or cells expressing the Ax1 receptor with the compound; measuring the Ax1 receptor activity in the presence of the compound; and comparing the activity measured to that measured in the absence of the compound under controlled conditions, wherein a decrease identifies the compound as being capable of inhibiting the activity. Therapeutic and diagnostic applications are also described.
摘要:
This application is directed to a process of identifying a compound capable of modulating activity of a human ENDO180 receptor that comprises the steps of measuring the binding of the ENDO180 receptor to an interactor with which the ENDO180 receptor interacts specifically in vivo, in the absence or presence of a compound, and determining whether the binding of the ENDO180 receptor to the interactor is affected by the compound. This application is also directed to use of a compound identified by that process in the preparation of a medicament for therapy of disease, in particular fibrosis. This application also relates to the use of ENDO180 modulators in treatment of disease.
摘要:
The invention relates to a double-stranded compound, preferably an oligoribonucleotide, which down-regulates the expression of a human p53 gene. The invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound, or a vector capable of expressing the oligoribonucleotide compound, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The present invention also contemplates a method of treating a patient suffering from alopecia or acute renal failure or other diseases comprising administering to the patient the pharmaceutical composition in a therapeutically effective dose so as to thereby treat the patient. The alopecia may be induced by chemotherapy or radiotherapy, and the patient may be suffering from cancer, in particular breast cancer.
