The present invention provides a method for treating a disease or condition in a mammal which comprises the steps of; administering a therapeutically effective amount of a T type calcium channel inhibitor to effectively slow or stop progression of eukaryotic cells through the S, G2 and M phases of the cell cycle to increase the proportion of the eukaryotic cells in the G1 phase, stopping administration of the T type calcium channel inhibitor for a period of time, and administering a dosage selected from the group consisting of a dosage of at least one chemotherapeutic agent, a dosage of radiation, and combinations thereof, to kill the proportion of eukaryotic cells progressing past the G1 phase of the cell cycle after the stopping of the administration of the T type calcium channel inhibitor.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to a class of 2-aminothiazole derivatives which have recently been identified as allosteric enhancers of the A1? adenosine receptor. These compounds, and therapeutic compositions containing them, are useful for treating conditions in which activation of the A1? adenosine receptor would be beneficial, for example, those conditions in which stimulation of angiogenesis would improve blood flow to ischemic tissues.

A stator assembly for use in a superconducting generator operated at frequencies up to 10 Hz is disclosed. The stator assembly includes a ferromagnetic stator winding support having a plurality of teeth defining slots, the slots configured to receive and support stator windings. The stator winding support is formed so that the ratio of the sum of the widths of the slots to the sum of the widths of the teeth and slots is in the range of 0.65 to 0.90.
摘要:
Traditional methods for measuring the phosphorylation state of cellular proteins have relied on .sup.32 P-orthophosphate labeling of cells in culture. The problems associated with radioactive isotopes have therefor prohibited phosphorylation studies on whole animals and humans. The present invention provides a unique technique that allows quantitative attachment of probes (e.g. fluorophors or biotin) to phospho-proteins and peptides by activating phospho-amino acids. the phosphorylation state of cellular proteins derived from human tissues can now be measured. This method can be used for early detection of cancer and diabetes and also for the identification of pharmaceutical agents.

摘要:
An antibody is provided which binds to active GGT, and can identify tissues which express GGT on their surface. Many solid tumors express GGT on their surface. Individuals identified with such tumors may be treated with inactivated prodrugs of chemotherapeutic agents at local dosage levels substantially above the maximum dosage levels currently permitted due to side effect limitations. The prodrugs are comprised of chemotherapeutic agents rendered inactive by the attachment of a gamma-glutamyl group thereto. The gamma-glutamyl group is cleaved by GGT on the surface of solid tumor cells expressing GGT, and thus active only locally against the tumor. Side effects are suppressed. The antibody is used to identify solid tumors that are candidates for this treatment, as well as to identify tissues which express GGT and which must therefore be the basis of selection criteria of various available chemotherapeutic agents.
