| 20120083495 | COMPOUNDS FOR THE TREATMENT OF SPINAL MUSCULAR ATROPHY AND OTHER USES - Compounds useful for the treatment of spinal muscular atrophy or other uses, as well as methods of using such compounds to increase SMN expression, increase EAAT2 expression, or increase the expression of a nucleic acid that encodes a translational stop codon introduced by mutation or frameshift. | 04-05-2012 |
| 20110243840 | MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES AGAINST ORTHOPOXVIRUSES - The present invention relates to monoclonal antibodies that bind or neutralize Orthopoxviruses. The invention provides such antibodies, fragments of such antibodies retaining B5 or A33 binding ability, fully human antibodies retaining B5 or A33 binding ability, and pharmaceutical compositions including such antibodies. The invention further provides for isolated nucleic acids encoding the antibodies of the invention and host cells transformed therewith. Additionally, the invention provides for prophylactic, therapeutic, and diagnostic methods employing the antibodies and nucleic acids of the invention. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20110207784 | OXADIAZOLE-2-OXIDES AS ANTISCHISTOSOMAL AGENTS - The invention provides 1,2,5-oxadiazole-containing compounds of Formula (I), wherein R | 08-25-2011 |
| 20110183859 | INFLAMMATORY GENES AND MICRORNA-21 AS BIOMARKERS FOR COLON CANCER PROGNOSIS - Disclosed herein are methods for detecting a more aggressive form of a colon adenocarcinoma in a subject, thereby predicting the prognosis of the subject. The methods generally include determining an inflammatory gene expression signature in the colon adenocarcinoma and/or the adjacent non-cancerous tissue. In some embodiments, the inflammatory genes include, but are not limited to, PRG1, ANXA1, IL-17a, IL-23a FOXP3, HLA-DRA, IL-10, CD68 and IL-12a. In some embodiments, the method further includes detecting expression of microRNA-21 (miR-21) in the colon adenocarcinoma. Altered expression of one or more of the inflammatory genes or miR-21 indicates the prognosis of the subject. Also provided are arrays consisting essentially of probes specific for PRG1, ANXA1, IL-17 | 07-28-2011 |
| 20110034547 | CHONDROPSIN-CLASS ANTITUMOR V-ATPASE INHIBITOR COMPOUNDS, COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF - A composition comprising a substantially purified compound of the formula: | 02-10-2011 |
| 20100247682 | USE OF NITRITE SALTS FOR THE TREATMENT OF CARDIOVASCULAR CONDITIONS - It has been surprisingly discovered that administration of nitrite to subjects causes a reduction in blood pressure and an increase in blood flow to tissues. The effect is particularly beneficial, for example, to tissues in regions of low oxygen tension. This discovery provides useful treatments to regulate a subject's blood pressure and blood flow, for example, by the administration of nitrite salts. Provided herein are methods of administering a pharmaceutically-acceptable nitrite salt to a subject, for treating, preventing or ameliorating a condition selected from: (a) ischemia-reperfusion injury (e.g., hepatic or cardiac or brain ischemia-reperfusion injury); (b) pulmonary hypertension (e.g., neonatal pulmonary hypertension); or (c) cerebral artery vasospasm. | 09-30-2010 |
