摘要:
Compositions and methods are provided for alleviating cancer in a mammal by administering a therapeutic dose of a pharmaceutical composition that inhibits activity of AXL protein activity, for example by competitive or non-competitive inhibition of the binding interaction between AXL and its ligand GAS6.

摘要:
Short hairpin RNA (shRNA) interference therapy targeting hypoxia inducible factor—lot (HIF-1 α) prolyl-4-hydroxylase protein (HIF-PHD2) is used for treatment of myocardial ischemia. This treatment can be followed noninvasively by molecular imaging. Provided are compositions comprising novel vectors encoding shRNA targeting the HIF-1α and asparaginyl hydroxylase genes. The vectors encoding shRNA are also useful for the treatment of cardiac diseases, peripheral vascular diseases and decubitis ulcers.
摘要:
Recombinant anaerobic bacterial compositions that under anaerobic conditions present in a solid tumor and produce an enzyme capable of catalyzing the conversion of a prodrug to its cytotoxic product in situ are described. Methods of treating tumors using the composition are also described.
摘要:
Provided herein are novel heteroaryl compounds, compositions comprising the compounds, and methods of treatment or prevention comprising administration of the compounds. The compounds are effective in the targeting of cells defective in the von Hippel-Lindau gene and in inducing autophagic cell death. The methods are directed to treating or preventing diseases such as cancer, and in particular cancers resulting from von Hippel-Lindau disease. The compounds of the invention may be administered in combination with another therapeutic agent.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method of treating a solid tumor, where the tumor contains regions of hypoxic cells, either because of poor vascularization in the tumor or because of vasoconstrictive or vaso-occlusive measures brought to bear on the tumor. The method includes administering to a subject, a compound effective to activate protein kinase C activity in the cells of the tumor, via a route effective to direct the compound to such regions of hypoxia in the tumor. Preferred compounds include phorbol esters, diacylglycerols, and thapsigargin. Also disclosed is a vaso-occlusive composition containing a protein kinase C activator, for use in the treatment method.
摘要:
A method of assessing a cell's susceptibility to cell-damaging energy, such as ionizing radiation and heat, is disclosed. The method is based on measurable changes in voltage-dependent potassium channel currents in the cell in response to the energy. Also disclosed is a method for screening drugs which are effective to sensitize a cell to cell-damaging radiation.
