摘要:
The present subject matter relates to the use of one or more inhibitors to treat a disease, e.g., cancer, in a subject. It is based, at least in part, on the discovery that protein kinase B (AKT) and ring finger protein 167 (RNF 167)-mediated CASTOR1 degradation activates the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) independent of arginine and promotes cancer progression. Accordingly, the presently disclosed subject matter provides for compositions, methods, and kits for treating a subj ect using an RNF 167 inhibitor, an inhibitor that reduces phosphorylation of CASTOR1 at S14, ubiquitination and/or degradation of CASTOR1, or a combination thereof.
摘要:
Disclosed herein relates to a replication competent recombinant adenovirus comprising restriction enzyme sites in an E3 region to insert a gene of interest. Also disclosed herein is a method for generating the replication competent recombinant adenovirus and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the adenovirus for use in treating a disease or a condition.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to compositions comprising isolated T cells, with activity against a fungal antigen, a viral antigen or a tumour antigen, wherein the composition comprises a defined number or defined ratio of T cells. Described herein are compositions comprising at least two populations of T cells, the compositions being suitable for treating various diseases and disorders.
摘要:
Provided herein are materials and methods for efficiently delivering nucleic acids to cochlear and vestibular cells, and methods of treating sensory transduction disorders associated with a genetic defect.
摘要:
A method of immunizing a susceptible host against a pathogen comprising administering to the host a vaccine that comprises an attenuated recombinant live vaccine strain lacking a polynucleotide encoding CapB (LVS AcapB), wherein the LVS AcapB expresses an antigen of at least one pathogen from Table 1; or administering to the host a vaccine that comprises an attenuated Listeria monocytogenes expressing the antigen of the pathogen from Table 1; or administering to the host a prime vaccine and a heterologous booster vaccine where the prime vaccine comprises an attenuated recombinant live vaccine strain lacking a polynucleotide encoding CapB (LVS AcapB), wherein the LVS AcapB expresses an antigen of at least one pathogen from Table 1 and the heterologous booster vaccine comprises an attenuated Listeria monocytogenes expressing the antigen of the pathogen from Table 1.
摘要:
Compositions of a recombinant adenovirus based vector vaccine containing one or more flavivirus antigen genes are disclosed herein. Methods for constructing and producing such vaccines and methods of using these vaccines to generate immune responses against flaviviruses are also described. Compositions described herein allow for vaccinations in subjects with preexisting immunity to adenovirus.
摘要:
The invention relates to methods of selectively purifying an adeno-associated virus (AAV) from an aqueous biomass using a flocculent. In embodiments, the flocculent is polydiallyldialkylammonium salt, e.g., polydiallyldimethvlammonium chloride (pDADMAC).
