摘要:
The present invention relates to replication defective recombinant viruses which contain at least one inserted gene encoding all or part of the protein GAX or of a variant of this protein, and to their therapeutic use, in particular for treating post-angioplastic restenosis.

摘要:
The invention relates to novel promoter sequences derived from a portion upstream of the coding sequence of the gene for the CARP protein (Cardiac Ankyrin Repeat Protein), and which are capable of controlling the level and the specificity of expression of a transgene in vivo in cardiac muscle cells. The invention thus describes novel compositions, constructs, vectors and their uses in vivo for the transfer and expression of a nucleic acid in vivo in cardiac muscle cells. The subject of the present invention is also the use of the promoter sequences for generating transgenic animals which constitute models for studying certain cardiac pathologies.
摘要:
Angiogenesis is stimulated by introducing two replication-deficient adenovirus vectors to the endothelial cells or proximate to the endothelial cells of an organism. The first vector encodes VEGF-B167 or a fragment or conservative substitution thereof, the second vector encodes VEGF-A or VEGF-C, or fragments or conservative substitutions thereof.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of a plasmid encoding a fibroblast growth factor as therapeutic agent for the prevention and treatment of hypercholesterolemia or diabetes associated myocardial or skeletal angiogenic defects. The present invention also relates to a method for enhancing formation of both collateral blood vessels and arterioles in myocardial or skeletal ischemic tissues in a mammalian subject suffering from hypercholesterolemia or diabetes. The present invention further relates to a method of promoting collateral blood vessels in ischemic myocardial or skeletal tissues without inducing VEGF-A factor expression and causing edema in the treated muscles.
摘要:
This invention pertains to polynucleotides comprising GAX domains involved in GAX biological activity. It may pertain, notably, to domains involved in the interaction of GAX with other molecules or domains that are responsible for biological activity. The invention also pertains to chimeric molecules comprising a GAX functional domain. It also pertains to the use of GAX to repress gene expression, as well as the use of compounds that inhibit GAX interaction with certain cellular partners to modulate GAX activity. It also pertains to a method for screening and/or identifying GAX cellular partners.
