| 20120107230 | Treatment of Hyperproliferative Diseases with Vinca Alkaloid N-Oxide Analogs - The present invention relates to vinca alkaloid and analog N-oxides having activity for treating hyperproliferative disorders. Further, the invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions and methods of using vinca alkaloid and analog N-oxides, alone or in combination with one or more other active agents or treatments, to treat hyperproliferative disorders. | 05-03-2012 |
| 20110035815 | Mosaic knockout mouse tumor models and methods or use - Disclosed herein are transgenic mouse tumor models. A portion of the cells of the disclosed transgenic mice undergo directed somatic recombination and the mouse is therefore a mosaic for homozygous knockout of p53, NF1, or both p53 and NF1 genes. The homozygous null cells resulting from the somatic recombination also express a detectable fluorescent protein, and the resulting sibling cells, which are wild type for p53, NF1, or both p53 and NF1, express a different detectable fluorescent protein. Also disclosed herein are methods of identifying compounds for treating or preventing a tumor, using the disclosed transgenic mice. | 02-10-2011 |
| 20100145024 | LONG WAVELENGTH ENGINEERED FLUORESCENT PROTEINS - Engineered fluorescent proteins, nucleic acids encoding them and methods of use. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20090155573 | SCAFFOLD-ORGANIZED METAL, ALLOY, SEMICONDUCTOR AND/OR MAGNETIC CLUSTERS AND ELECTRONIC DEVICES MADE USING SUCH CLUSTERS - A method for forming arrays of metal, alloy, semiconductor or magnetic clusters is described. The method comprises placing a scaffold on a substrate, the scaffold comprising molecules selected from the group consisting of polynucleotides, polypeptides, and perhaps combinations thereof. Polypeptides capable of forming α helices are currently preferred for forming scaffolds. Arrays are then formed by contacting the scaffold with plural, monodispersed ligand-stabilized clusters. Each cluster, prior to contacting the scaffold, includes plural exchangeable ligands bonded thereto. If the clusters are metal clusters, then the metal preferably is selected from the group consisting of Ag, Au, Pt, Pd and mixtures thereof. A currently preferred metal is gold, and a currently preferred metal cluster is Au | 06-18-2009 |
| 20090047753 | Scaffold-organized clusters and electronic devices made using such clusters - A method for forming arrays of metal, alloy, semiconductor or magnetic clusters is described. The method comprises placing a scaffold on a substrate, the scaffold comprising, for example, polynucleotides and/or polypeptides, and coupling the clusters to the scaffold. Methods of producing arrays in predetermined patterns and electronic devices that incorporate such patterned arrays are also described. | 02-19-2009 |
| 20080300202 | SUBTRACTIVE TRANSGENICS - Described herein are methods for predictable, highly selective expression of a transgene in a human or non-human animal. The methods comprise subtractive transgenics, wherein the expression pattern of one selective promoter is subtracted from the expression pattern of a second selective promoter. Provided are non-human transgenic animals exhibiting a highly selective expression pattern and methods of producing such animals. Further provided are methods of selective expression of a transgene in an animal, including a human, by administration of viral vectors. | 12-04-2008 |
