Abstract:
A method of inhibiting M2-like macrophages in a patient is provided comprising administering to a patient having ovarian cancer a therapeutically effective amount of a FRβ-transported C1 inhibitor compound having selective efficacy to FRβ expressing tumor cells. The method includes wherein the FRβ-transported C1 inhibitor compound is a substituted pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine antifolate inhibitor compound having selective efficacy to FRβ expressing tumor cells. The present invention provides a method for targeting both the tumor and the tumor microenvironment with the FRβ-transported C1 inhibitor compounds.
Abstract:
The present invention provides conformationally restricted 4-substituted 2,6-dimethylfuro[2,3- d ]pyrimidine compounds and pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds. Preferably, the compounds exhibit dual inhibition of microtubule assembly and receptor tyrosine kinases. Methods of treating cancer comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of at least one conformationally restricted 4-substituted 2,6-dimethylfuro[2,3- d ]pyrimidine compound to a patient is disclosed.
Abstract:
A method for identifying an animal or human, including the steps of collecting and retaining an archive data set of measurements of two or more kinetic stylometrics of a first individual animal or human; collecting and retaining a test data set of measurements of the same two or more kinetic stylometrics of a test individual; and comparing archive and test data sets to determine similarity therefore, wherein similarity within any appropriate confidence interval confirms that the test individual and the first individual are the same. Using similar methods, social or other groups maybe kinetically stylometrically profiled for subsequent individual testing.
Abstract:
A functionalized composition and resulting functionalized body or prosthesis for in vitro and in vivo use comprising at least one calcium phosphate containing phase that is functionalized with a linker group comprising at least one of an organic acid molecule, a phosphonic acid, an amine, Ν,Ν-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and 3-maleimidopropionic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester, wherein the linker group provides for a reactive location for the attachment of the chemical or biologically active moiety to the calcium phosphate containing phase. The functionalized compositions have a pliable physical property when mixed with water and adhere to natural bone and subsequently harden at ambient temperatures. Methods of manufacturing a functionalized artificial prosthesis that may be used as artificial bones, joints, in-vitro support structures, and in-vivo support structures for cells, tissues, organs, and nerve growth and regeneration are disclosed. Methods of repairing a bone, vertebrae, or tissue structures using the functionalized compositions are provided.
Abstract:

Methods of treating a patient diagnosed with cancer is disclosed comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of the substituted bicyclic pyrimidine compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, and solvates of the compounds, for treating cancer.
Abstract:
A particularly constructed tamoxifen-melatonin hybrid ligand gives new and unexpectedly improved results in the prevention and treatment of cancer, particularly breast cancer. The hybrid ligand comprises either tamoxifen or 4-hydroxytamoxifen and also melatonin, with the tamoxifen or 4-hydroxytamoxifen and melatonin's being linked by an unsubstituted C 2 -C 6 alkyl linker between the tamoxifen amine and the carbonyl of melatonin.
Abstract:
The present invention provides bicyclic compounds, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, prodrugs, solvates, and hydrates thereof, having antimitotic activity, anti-multidrug resistance activity, such as for example P-glycoprotein inhibition, and antitumor activity, and which inhibit paclitaxel sensitive and resistant tumor cells. Also provided are methods of utilizing these compounds for treating tumor cells and inhibiting mitosis of cancerous cells.
