摘要:
The present invention relates to the discovery that mutations in SCN9A are causative of Congenital Indifference to Pain (CIP) in humans. The invention also relates to methods of using compounds small organic compounds to treat pain as well as to predict the effect of analgesic agents in patients, such as those possessing gain of function mutations.
摘要:
The present invention provides compositions comprising therapeutic nucleic acids such as interfering RNA that target apolipoprotein C-III (APOC3) gene expression, lipid particles comprising one or more (e.g., a cocktail) of the therapeutic nucleic acids, methods of making the lipid particles, and methods of delivering and/or administering the lipid particles (e.g., for the treatment of lipid diseases or disorders such as atherosclerosis or a dyslipidemia such as hypertriglyceridemia or hypercholesterolemia).
摘要:
Methods of utilizing a gene related to pain perception, herein dubbed HSN2, or its encoded protein, dubbed herein “sensorin,” for the screening and identification of agents for the treatment of pain, neuropathy and related disorders, especially small organic compounds, as well as methods of using these compounds to treat or otherwise ameliorate pain, neuropathy and related disorders in human patients. Novel polypeptides and polynucleotides, along with their nucleotide and amino acid sequences, are also disclosed.
摘要:
Polynucleotide and polypeptide sequences for HFE2A, as well as mutations associated with juvenile hemochromatosis, and methods of utilizing these for the screening and identification of agents for the treatment of diseases of iron metabolism, including small organic compounds, are disclosed along with methods of treating and/or ameliorating diseases of iron metabolism, especially in human patients are disclosed. Diagnostic compounds, kits and methods using HFE2A are also described.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the discovery that mutations in SCN9A are causative of Congenital Indifference to Pain (CIP) in humans. The invention also relates to methods of utilizing the SCN9A gene and expression products thereof for the screening and identification of therapeutic agents, including small organic compounds, which are selective for SCN9A, and are useful in the treatment of pain and other disorders. The invention also relates to methods of using these compounds to treat or otherwise ameliorate such disorders.
