摘要:
The present invention identifies genes whose gene products are differentially expressed in lymphedema tissues, particularly cutaneous tissue involved in whole organ response to lymphedema. The invention provides methods for diagnosing or assessing an individual's susceptibility to lymphedema. Also provided are therapeutic methods for treating a patient or methods for prophylactically treating an individual susceptible to lymphedema. Additionally, the invention describes screening methods for identifying agents that can be administered to treat individuals that have or at risk of developing lymphedema.

The method of treating patients be administering phenylalkyl N-hydroxurea derivatives for combating atherosclerotic plaque and cardiovascular diseases and compositions for this use.
摘要:
The present invention identifies two circulating proteins that have been newly identified as being differentially expressed in atherosclerosis. Circulating levels of these two proteins, particularly as a panel of proteins, can discriminate patients with acute myocardial infarction from those with stable exertional angina and from those with no history of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Such levels can also predict cardiovascular events, determine the effectiveness of therapy, stage disease, and the like. For example, these markers are useful as surrogate biomarkers of clinical events needed for development of vascular specific pharmaceutical agents.
摘要:
The present invention identifies genes whose gene products are differentially expressed pressure overload of the heart. The invention provides methods for diagnosing or assessing an individual's susceptibility to heart failure from many etiologies, as well as the presence and severity of hypertrophy, chamber enlargement, or systolic heat failure. Also provided are therapeutic methods for treating a heart patient or methods for prophylactically treating an individual susceptible to heart failure. Additionally, the invention describes screening methods for identifying agents that can be administered to treat individuals that have suffered a heart attack or are at risk of heart failure.

摘要:
The invention provides genes (DEA genes) that are differentially expressed in atherosclerotic lesions and polypeptides encoded by these genes. The invention provides compositions comprising a targeting agent conjugated to a functional moiety, wherein the targeting agent selectively binds to a polypeptide encoded by one a DEA gene. The functional moiety can be an imaging agent, therapeutic agent, etc. The invention further provides methods for providing diagnostic or prognostic information related to atherosclerosis involving detecting expression or activity of an expression product of one or more of the DEA genes. The invention further provides therapeutic methods comprising administering to a subject a composition comprising a targeting agent conjugated to a functional moiety that binds selectively binds to a polypeptide encoded by a DEA gene.
摘要:
Polynucleotide sequences are provided that correspond to genes that are differentially expressed in atherosclerotic disease conditions. Methods for using these sequences to detect gene expression and/or for transcriptional profiling in mammals are also provided. The polynucleotide sequences of the invention may be used, for example, to diagnose atherosclerotic disease, to monitor extent of progression or efficacy of treatment or to assess prognosis of atherosclerotic disease, and/or to identify compounds effective to treat an atherosclerotic disease condition.
