摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for diagnosis and/or prognosis of cancer and for monitoring the progression of cancer and/or the therapeutic efficacy of an anti-cancer treatment in a subject by determining the molecular form of cadherin at the cell surface of cancer cells in the subject. The invention also relates to a method for preventing, inhibiting or treating cancer or its metastasis in a subject by increasing the adhesive forms of cadherin and/or decreasing the non-adhesive forms of cadherin at the cell surface. The invention also relates to a method step of determining the expression level of furin and proprotein convertase 5A (PC5A).
摘要:
Disclosed herein are PACE4 inhibitors, compositions comprising PACE4 inhibitors and their uses thereof for lowering PACE4 activity, reducing cell proliferation, reducing tumor growth, reducing metastasis formation, preventing and/or treating cancer. Also provided are methods for lowering PACE4 activity, reducing the proliferation of a cell, reducing tumor growth and/or treating and preventing cancer. Methods for screening PACE4 inhibitors and cell proliferation inhibitors are further provided.
摘要:
Methods and kits for diagnosis and staging of non-septic shock are presented in which one or more protease activities are measured from a biological sample to so identify and/or stage non-septic shock. Most preferably, at least two protease activities are correlated, however, additional or alternative markers may also be measured.
摘要:
Methods and compositions for treating prostate cancer by promoting prostate epithelial cell differentiation are described. Treatment methods involve administration of an active form of prostate-derived factor (PDF), or of an inactive PDF precursor, or of a combination of a proprotein convertase (PC) with a PDF precursor, to increase the biological activity of PDF in the subject and promote prostate epithelial cell differentiation.
