Abstract:
Methods for reducing or preventing the effects of cytotoxic compounds in healthy cells are provided. The methods relate to the use of selective cyclin- dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors to induce transient quiescence in CDK4/6 dependent cells, such as hematopoietic stem cells and/or hematopoietic progenitor cells. Also described is a method of selecting compounds for reducing or preventing the effects of cytotoxic agents compounds in healthy cells.
Abstract:
This invention is directed to isolated and purified nucleic acids encoding circular RNA comprising one or more ANRIL exons, methods for detecting such nucleic acids, and uses thereof. The invention provides methods for detecting ANRIL associated disorders such as atherosclerosis, related kits, and methods of screening for compounds to prevent or treat such disorders.
Abstract:
The presently disclosed subject matter relates to methods and compositions for protecting healthy cells from damage due to DNA damaging agents. In particular, the presently disclosed subject matter relates to the protective action of selective cyclin dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors administered to subjects that have been exposed to or that are at risk of exposure to DNA damage.

Abstract:
The presently disclosed subject matter provides methods for determining the molecular age of a tissue. Also provided are methods for employing a molecular age that has been determined for a tissue for assessing the appropriateness of various therapeutic applications for the tissue or a subject comprising the tissue.

The presently disclosed subject matter relates to methods and compositions for protecting cells and or tissues from damage due to ischemia. In particular, the presently disclosed subject matter relates to the protective action of cyclin dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors administered to subjects that have been exposed to, or that are at risk of, ischemia.

Abstract:
Methods for reducing or preventing the effects of ionizing radiation in healthy cells are provided. The methods relate to the use of selective cyclin- dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors to induce transient quiescence in CDK4/6 dependent cells, such as hematopoietic stem cells and/or hematopoietic progenitor cells. Radioprotection can be effected in mammals by treatment with selective CDK4/6 inhibitor compounds either before, at the same time as, or after exposure to the ionizing radiation.
