摘要:
A method is provided for treating solid tumors comprising administering a composition comprising a PDGF aptamer and a cytotoxic agent. In a preferred embodiment the PDGF aptamer is identified using the SELEX process for the Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential enrichment. A method is also provided for reducing the interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) of a solid tumor comprising administering a PDGF aptamer. Finally, a method is provided for increasing the uptake of cytotoxic agents into a tumor comprising administering a composition comprising a PDGF aptamer and a cytotoxic agent.

The invention relates to a combination of (a) an inhibitor of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) activity and (b) a vector for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-, especially VEGF-C) gene transfer, a pharmaceutical preparation comprising (a) and (b) in combination together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier material; a product comprising (a) and (b) as defined above and optionally a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier material, for simultaneous, chronologically staggered or separate use; a method of administering or the use of said combination or product for the treatment of endothelial damage; and/or to the use of (a) and (b) for the manufacture of said pharmaceutical preparation or product for the treatment of endothelial damage.
摘要:
Disclosed herein are methods to inhibit cleavage of a type I receptor of transforming growth factor beta (TβRI) and reduce cancer cell invasiveness/metastasis, and agents and pharmaceutical compositions for use in these methods. Also disclosed herein are methods for identifying agents that inhibit cleavage of TβRI and methods for diagnosing and/or prognosing cancer based on nuclear localization of a intracellular domain of TβRI, which is a product of TβRI cleavage.
摘要:
A new receptor family has been identified, of activin-like kinases. Novel proteins have activin/TGF-β-type I receptor functionality, and have consequential diagnostic/therapeutic utility. They may have a serine/threonine kinase domain, a DFKSRN or DLKSKN sequence in subdomain VIB and/or a GTKRYM sequence in subdomain VIII.
摘要:
This invention relates to peptide molecules and compounds which are negative regulators of TGFβ signaling, particularly of TβR-I kinase activity. The invention further relates to methods of using such peptides and compounds in the treatment of disease.
摘要:
The invention relates to the cloning of two novel protein tyrosine phosphatases. Nucleic acid sequences encoding these phosphatases (PTPL1 and GLM-2) as well as anti-sense sequences are also provided. The recombinantly produced PTPL1 and GLM-2 proteins also are provided, as well as antibodies to these proteins. Methods relating to isolating the phosphatases, using the nucleic acid sequences, and using the phosphatases also are provided.
