Abstract:
The disclosure describes compounds of Formula la, which in non-limiting aspects contain an asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) binding moiety and an anti-piAR binding moiety. Compounds of Formula la are useful in preventing, treating, and/or ameliorating heart failure in a subject when administered in therapeutically effective amounts.
Abstract:
Among other things, the present disclosure provides various agents. In some embodiments, provided agents can bind to beta-catenin. In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides technologies for modulating beta-catenin functions. In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides technologies for preventing and/or treating conditions, disorders or diseases associated with beta-catenin. In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides designed amino acids which can provide improved properties and/or activities. In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides agents comprising such amino acids.
Abstract:
The invention relates to compounds that are analogs of a cyclic peptide, cyclo [EKTOVNOGN], AFPep, that has anti-estrotrophic activity. The analogs of the invention include peptides and petidomimetics that inhibit estrogen receptor dependent cell proliferation. The compounds of the invention are useful for treating cell proliferative disorders or physiological conditions characterized by undesirable or unwanted estrogen induced cell proliferation, including breast cancer.
Abstract:
An internally-constrained cyclic oligopeptide comprising a ring of at least six amino acids for specifically binding to a target ligand, wherein the ring comprises a plurality of amino acid domains, each domain comprising at least two epitope-forming amino acids, and two or more associating functional groups positioned so that they form one or more intra-cyclic associations; whereby the cyclic oligopeptide is constrained in a single conformation so that the epitope-forming amino acids form an epitope in each domain, each epitope being capable of specifically binding to a target ligand.
Abstract:
The present invention describes novel compounds of the formula (I):(Q)d-Ln-Ch, useful for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer in combination therapy in a patient. The present invention provides novel compounds useful for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. The pharmaceuticals are comprised of a targeting moiety that binds to a receptor that is upregulated during angiogenesis, an optional linking group, and a therapeutically effective radioisotope or diagnostically effective imageable moiety
Abstract:
The present invention relates, inter alia, to certain hepcidin peptide analogues, including both peptide monomers and peptide dimers, and conjugates and derivatives thereof, as well as compositions comprising the peptide analogues, and to the use of the peptide analogues in the treatment and/or prevention of a variety of diseases, conditions or disorders, including treatment and/or prevention of erythrocytoses, such as polycytemia vera, iron overload diseases such as hereditary hemochromatosis, iron-loading anemias, and other conditions and disorders described herein.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to imaging and endoradiotherapy of diseases involving chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4). Provided are compounds which bind or inhibit CXCR4 and furthermore carry at least one moiety which is amenable to labeling. Provided are also medical uses of such compounds.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for treatment of self-protein-related diseases, or for vaccinating or immunizing against self-protein related diseases, in an individual during a treatment period, comprising performing several administrations of an effective amount of a peptide derived from the self-protein to the individual, wherein the administrations are distributed all along the treatment period.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides novel macrocyclic peptides which inhibit the PD-1/PD-L1 and PD-L1/CD80 protein/protein interaction, and thus are useful for the amelioration of various diseases, including cancer and infectious diseases.
