摘要:
Provided are methods of identifying inhibitors of beta-secretase that employ modified beta-secretase substrates. The modified beta-secretase substrates have beta-secretase cleavage sites that are altered from wild type. The amino acid sequences of the altered beta-secretase cleavage sites contain different amino acids in at least one of the positions P2-P1-P1'-P2' of the beta-secretase cleavage site. Many of the modified beta-secretase substrates are more efficient substrates for beta-secretase than are corresponding substrates having wild-type sequences, that is, these modified substrates are more susceptible to enzymatic breakdown by beta-secretase. Recombinant polynucleotide molecules encoding the modified beta-secretase substrates are provided. Antibodies that recognize cleavage products of the modified beta-secretase substrates are provided. Stable cell lines expressing the modified beta-secretase substrates are provided. Transgenic animals expressing the modified beta-secretase substrates are provided.
摘要:
The present invention provides compounds that are inhibitors of the proteolytic activity of the enzyme β-secretase, pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, processes for making the compounds, and methods of using the compounds to treat Alzheimer s disease.
摘要:
The present invention provides antibody or the antigen-binding portion thereof bind to carbohydrate antigen, such as Globo series antigens (e.g. Globo H, SSEA-4 or SSEA-3). Also disclosed herein are pharmaceutical compositions and methods for the inhibition of cancer cells in a subject in need thereof. The pharmaceutical compositions comprise an antibody or an antigen-binding portion thereof and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to chimeric antigen receptors (CARs), which bind to Globo series antigens (e.g. Globo H, SSEA-3 or SSEA-4), including an antigen-binding fragment (Fab) or a single-chain variable fragment (scFv). Further, the present methods are also provided for administering CARs to a subject in an amount effective to inhibit cancer cells.
摘要:
The instant invention relates to a method for reducing the risk for development of anti-viral treatment resistance due to an HIV mutation in a human subject infected with HIV, comprising administering EFdA in combination with one or more anti-viral agents.
摘要:
A pharmaceutical composition, including a compound l-(3-(3-N,N- dimethylaminocarbonyl)phenoxyl-4-mtrophenyl)-l-ethyl-N,N'- bis(ethylene)phosphoramidate and at least one therapeutic agent including a chemotherapeutic agent or biological agent, and its medical use are provided.
摘要:
The disclosure provides a method of active immunotherapy for a cancer patient, comprising administering vaccines against Globo series antigens (i.e., Globo H, SSEA-3 and SSEA-4). Specifically, the method comprises administering Globo H-CRM197 (OBI-833/821) in patients with cancer. The disclosure also provides a method of selecting a cancer patient who is suitable as treatment candidate for immunotherapy. Exemplary immune response can be characterized by reduction of the severity of disease, including but not limited to, prevention of disease, delay in onset of disease, decreased severity of symptoms, decreased morbidity and delayed mortality.
摘要:
A new process to synthesis of compound OBI-3424 R-form and S-form products is provided. The "R-form" compound OBI-3423 was first synthesized with 48% overall yield from compound OBI-3424-5 by installation of the labile phosphate motif at later stage. The stereo chemistry is established by 5 steps chemo-enzyme combination synthesis to afford 99% optical purity, After then, the "S-form" compound OBI-3424 is prepared with improving overall yield of 54% from compound OBI-3424-5. The stereo chemistry is established by 4 steps combination of chemo-enzyme synthesis with excellent optical purity of 99%.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to treating cancer patients with anti-dendritic cells (anti-DCs)/anti-immunogenic cell death (anti-ICD) bispecific engager combined with tumor ICD inducers to enhance the dendritic cell activity. Exemplary polyvalent proteins include at least one DC binding site and at least one ICD binding site. In certain embodiments, the binding sites may be linked through a constant immunoglobulin region. Anti-DC and anti-ICD monoclonal antibodies are also provided.
摘要:
Methods and reagents suitable for in vitro diagnostic assay comprising a qualitative immunohistochemical assay using anti-Globo H antibodies and/or binding fragments thereof are provided. The method comprises the detection of Globo-H expression levels in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) cancer tissue using a visualization system. The Globo-H expression can be determined by using tumor scoring showing partial or complete staining at any intensity.
