摘要:
A method for changing a globular protein structure into a fibrillar protein structure. The method comprising the steps of providing a globular protein, forming a solution containing the globular protein, adding a detergent to the solution containing the globular protein, applying the solution to a molecular sizing column with a pore size of at least 70 kDa and eluting with a solution containing detergent. A method for changing an unfolded protein structure into a fibrillar protein structure. The method comprising the steps of providing a globular protein, forming a solution containing the globular protein, adding a urea to the solution to unfold the globular protein, applying the solution to a molecular sizing column and eluting with a solution containing detergent. A method for treating cancer comprising the steps of providing a protein, changing the protein into a fibrillar structure, and administering a therapeutically effective amount of the fibrillar structure protein to a patient in need thereof. A method for producing a vaccine adjuvant or antigen adjuvant comprising the steps of providing a protein, and changing the protein into a fibrillar structure.

A method for inhibiting survival of cancer cells in a subject is disclosed. The method comprises administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of fibrillar albumin. The preparation of the fibrillar albumin comprises: (i) forming a solution comprising an isolated and/or purified globular albumin; (ii) adding a detergent to the solution containing the isolated and/or purified globular albumin, wherein the detergent is one selected from the group consisting of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and n-tetradecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate; (iii) applying the solution to a molecular sizing column with a pore size that permits separation of a protein with a molecular weight of at least about 70 kDa so as to promote column-induced formation of the fibrillar albumin from the isolated and/or purified globular albumin; and (iv) eluting the fibrillar albumin from the column, wherein the eluted albumin has a fibrillar structure.

摘要:
Methods are provided for suppressing cancer metastasis. Cancer metastasis is the most common cause of treatment failure and death in cancer patients. Tumor cell invasion and/or migration can be significantly inhibited after fibrillar proteins (rVP1, F-HSA, and F-BSA) treatment in vitro. In addition, rVP1 can significantly suppress murine and human breast cancer metastasis and human prostate and ovarian cancer metastasis in vivo while F-HSA can significantly suppress murine breast cancer metastasis. Compositions of fibrillar proteins as anti-cancer metastasis therapeutics and methods of use thereof are provided herein.
