摘要:
Analogs of blood factors which are transiently inactive are useful in treatment of diseases characterized by thrombosis. In addition, modified forms of activated blood factors that generate the active blood factor in serum but have extended half-lives are useful in treating hemophilic conditions. These modified forms of the blood factor may be acylated forms which are slowly deacylated in vivo.
摘要:
The present invention is directed towards immunoglobulin polypeptides that specifically bind to the extracellular domain of the human type beta PDGF receptor. The binding of the immunoglobulin polypeptides to the receptor inhibits PDGF-induced (or stimulated) receptor activation as indicated by inhibition of receptor phosphorylation and dimerization, and by inhibition of PDGF-mediated mitogenesis, chemotaxis and migration of cells displaying the human PDGF type beta receptor on the cell surface. Nucleic acids encoding the immunoglobulin polypeptides are also included in the invention. The immunoglobulin polypeptides have diagnostic and therapeutic uses.
摘要:
This invention relates to the glycoprotein v gene. Specifically, this invention discloses the sequence and structure of the glycoprotein v gene and the amino acid sequence of the glycoprotein v polypeptide. In addition, the evolutionary relationship of the glycoprotein v gene with other glycoproteins is described and several uses of the isolated glycoprotein v gene are shown.
摘要:
The present invention provides the amino acid and nucleotide sequence of a protein that binds to null3 integrins, nullIIb and Src kinase and is involved in integrin mediated signaling. Based on this disclosure, the present invention provides methods for identifying agents that block integrin mediated signaling, methods of using agents that block integrin mediated signaling to modulate biological and pathological processes, and agents that block integrin mediated signaling
摘要:
Novel benzamide compounds including their pharmaceutically acceptable isomers, salts, hydrates, solvates and prodrug derivatives having activity against mammalian factor Xa are described Compositions containing such compounds are also described The compounds and compositions are useful in vitro or in vivo for preventing or treating coagulation disorders
摘要:
Nucleic acid molecules encoding the C140 cell surface receptor have been cloned and sequenced. The availability of C140 receptor DNA permits the recombinant production of the C140 receptor which can be produced on the surface of a cell, including an oocyte. The nucleic acid molecules are useful in an assay for detecting a substance which affects C140 receptor activity, either receptor agonists or antagonists. Further, the elucidation of the structure of the C140 receptor permits the design of agonist and antagonist compounds which are useful in such assays. The availability of the C140 receptor also permits production of antibodies specifically immunoreactive with one or more antigenic epitopes of the C140 receptor.
摘要:
Novel purinergic receptors are provided, having research, diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Also provided are nucleic acids encoding these receptors, as well as expression systems for their production.
摘要:
The present invention discloses that phosphorylation of cytoplasmic tyrosine residues in the null-subunit of integrins is needed for signal protein association. The invention provides methods of identifying signaling partners involved in integrin mediated signaling, methods of identifying agents which block integrin mediated signaling, methods of using agents which block integrin mediated signaling to modulate biological and pathological processes, and agents which block integrin mediated signaling.
