摘要:
The NSAID, sulindac and/or its metabolites and derivatives, in combination with hydrogen peroxide or another oxidizing agent, such as arsenic trioxide that generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), significantly enhances the killing of cancer cells. This effect occurs at concentrations of each compound that individually have little or no activity directed against cancer cells. A skin cream has been developed and used to treat skin cancer and precancerous skin growths that effectively removes the lesions with no effect on surrounding normal skin.

This invention provides methods for the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus in patients, the sera of which contain antibodies reactive against ribosomal proteins P0, P1 and P2. A peptide containing an amino acid sequence corresponding to the carboxyl termini of the ribosomal proteins, which peptide is bound to a solid carrier, is also provided for use in such methods.
摘要:
The invention provides compositions comprising sulindac, R-epimer sulindac, S-epimer sulindac, derivatives, metabolites, and structural analogs thereof which protect normal cells against damage caused by solar rays, oxidative damage, environmental factors, diseases and organisms.
摘要:
The NSAID, sulindac and/or its metabolites and derivatives, in combination with an agent that generates or induces reactive oxygen species (ROS), significantly enhances the killing of abnormal cells but does not affect normal cells. This effect occurs at concentrations of each compound that individually have little or no activity directed against the abnormal cells.
摘要:
The invention provides small molecules that act as catalytic antioxidants and methods of use thereof. The compounds can repeatedly bind and destroy reactive oxygen species by serving as substrates for enzymes of the methionine sulfoxide reductase (Msr) class. Some embodiments of the catalytic antioxidant compounds are derived from drugs with anti-inflammatory activity due to inhibition of cyclooxygenase enzymes.

The invention provides small molecules that act as catalytic antioxidants and methods of use thereof. The compounds can repeatedly bind and destroy reactive oxygen species by serving as substates for enzymes of the methionine sulfoxide reductase (Msr) class. Some embodiments of the catalytic antioxidant compounds are derived from drugs with anti-inflammatory activity due to inhibition of cyclooxygenase enzymes.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of MT as a reducing system for the Msr enzymes and other oxioreductase enzymes which form similar intermediates. Specifically, the invention provides for a reduction in the level of oxidative damage in cells through an increase in levels of MT by administration of suitable compounds, resulting in an increase in the activity of the Msr enzymes.
