摘要:
The present invention provides novel methods of treating anti-neoplastic and non-neoplastic cell proliferative diseases. The present methods involve administration of triplex forming oligonucleotides to humans to inhibit the biological activity of tumor necrosis factor. Also provided are methods of treating neuro-oncologic states and renal cancer.
摘要:
The oligonucleotides have sufficient guanosine to form a guanosine tetrad and can be composed of at least about 40% guanosine nucleotides, the nucleotide sequence containing at least two runs of at least two guanosines. Some of the new oligonucleotides also contain phosphorothioate backbones and 3′ end modifications. Representative guanosine-rich oligonucleotides of the present invention demonstrate anti-viral activity in tissue culture against HSV-2, HIV-1, HCMV and FMLV, and show specific inhibition of bacterial RNA polymerase enzymes T7 and T3, the FMLV and HIV-1 reverse transcriptase enzyme and eukaryotic RNA polymerase.

摘要:
Guanosine-rich oligonucleotides having sequences that favor the formation under physiological conditions of a stable four-stranded structure containing two stacked guanosine quartets (G4s) are disclosed. These oligonucleotides demonstrate enhanced nuclease resistance, cellular uptake and biological efficacy. Methods and composition for treating viral infection using these guanosine-rich oligonucleotides are also disclosed. Certain embodiments of the new oligonucleotides are 16-17 nucleotides long and contain at least one C-5 propynyl dU substitution. A method for designing anti-viral oligonucleotides is also disclosed.

摘要:
Provided herein are methods for isolating, detecting and analyzing a virus in a sample. Generally, the virus is isolated via centrifuging, incubating, aggregating, and lysing the sample to obtain a crude neutralized lysate. The crude neutralized lysate is analyzed and the virus(es) are detected by performing one of a first polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification followed by a second PCR amplification, by an isothermal amplification or by the reverse transcription reaction and the first polymerase chain reaction amplification together utilizing fluorescently labeled primer pairs and hybridizing the resultant fluorescent labeled amplicons to complementary nucleic acid probes.
摘要:
Provided herein is a method for identifying a mastitis-causing microbe in a subject. A milk sample is centrifuged to form a microbial pellet, total nucleic acids are extracted from the pellet and a microarray analysis of extracted DNA from which the mastitis-causing microbe is identified from DNA hybridization to mastitis-causing microbe species-specific gene probes. Also provided is a method for diagnosing a bovine mastitis infection in a dairy cow after identifying the bovine mastitis-causing microbe in a raw milk sample from the dairy cow.
摘要:
The present invention provides a portable system for real-time population-scale HLA genotyping and/or allelotyping in a field environment and methods of such population-scale HLA genotyping. The individual components of the system are portable to and operable within a field environment thereby providing high throughput with real-time geno- or allelotyping. Also provided are HLA gene-specific primers and HLA allele-specific or single nucleotide polymorphism-specific hybridization probes. In addition the present invention provides a microarray comprising the hybridization probes. Further provided is a kit comprising the HLA gene-specific primers and the microarray.
