摘要:
The present invention relates to compositions and methods comprising one or more domains of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) in an amount effective to modulate one or more of the contractility and angiogenic activity of a mammalian muscle or endothelial cell or tissue for use in the treatment of a disease or condition having as a symptom thereof one or more of abnormal muscle cell or tissue contractility and abnormal angiogenic activity. The one or more domains of uPA can be present in the inventive compositions and methods either as part of the full uPA molecule in either single chain or two chain form (scuPA or tcuPA), or as an isolated polypeptide, or a fragment of the uPA molecule (e.g., the amino terminal fragment “ATF”), or a deletion mutant of the uPA molecule. The inventive methods comprise administering to a mammal afflicted with such a disease or condition the inventive composition, and modulating one or more of the contractility and the angiogenic activity of the muscle or endothelial cell or tissue, thereby treating the disease or condition. Kits for treating such diseases are also included.

The present invention relates to compositions of the polypeptide EEIIMID and one or more fibrinolytic agents selected from the group consisting of scuPA, tPA, uPA, tcuPA, streptokinase, rt-PA, alteplase, rt-PA derivatives, reteplase, lanoteplase, TNK-rt-PA, anisoylated plasminogen streptokinase complex, anistreplase, or a streptokinase derivative. The invention further relates to methods of enhancing the fibrinolytic activity, reducing the side effects due to vasoactivity caused by the fibrinolytic agents, or prolonging the half lives of the fibrinolytic agents by adding EEIIMD.

摘要:
The invention provides novel methods for treating disease based upon the medicinal use of lipids and phospholipids covalently bound to physiologically acceptable monomers or polymers. Phosphatidylethanolamine moieties conjugated to physiologically acceptable monomers and polymers (PE conjugates) manifest an unexpectedly wide range of pharmacological effects, including stabilizing cell membranes; limiting oxidative damage to cell and blood components; limiting cell proliferation, cell extravasation and (tumor) cell migratory behavior; suppressing immune responses; and attenuating physiological reactions to stress, as expressed in elevated chemokine levels. The surprisingly manifold pharmacological properties of the PL-conjugates allow for the invention, disclosed herein, of novel methods for the treatment of a diverse range of disease states, including obstructive respiratory disease, including asthma; colitis and Crohn's disease; central nervous system insult, including blood brain barrier compromise, ischemic stroke, and multiple sclerosis; contact dermatitis; psoriasis; cardiovascular disease, including ischemic conditions and prophylaxis for invasive vascular procedures; cellular proliferative disorders, including anti-tumor vasculogenesis, invasiveness, and metastases; anti-oxidant therapy; hemolytic syndromes; sepsis; acute respiratory distress syndrome; tissue transplant rejection syndromes; autoimmune disease; viral infection; and hypersensitivity conjunctivitis. The therapeutic methods of the invention include administration of phosphatidylethanolamine bound to carboxymethylcellulose, heparin, hyaluronic acid, polyethylene glycol, and hemaccel. Disclosed herein are also new compounds comprised of phospholipid moieties bound to low molecular weight monomers and dimers, including mono- and disaccharides, carboxylated disaccharides, mono- and dicarboxylic acids, salicylates, bile acids, and fatty acids.
摘要:
Compositions of the polypeptide SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2, anti-LRP antibodies, LRP antagonists, and/or one or more fibrinolytic agents are formulated for enhancing the fibrinolytic activity, reducing the side effects due to vasoactivity caused by the fibrinolytic agents, and/or prolonging the half lives of the fibrinolytic agents. The invention further relates to combination compositions and/or therapy regimens, comprising the polypeptide SEQ ID NO:1 and/or SEQ ID NO:2 and one or more currently used plasminogen activators.
