Abstract: The present invention relates to novel 3-(cycloalkano-heteroarylidenyl)-2-indolinone compounds and physiologically acceptable salts and prodrugs thereof which are expected to modulate the activity of protein tyrosine kinases and therefore to be useful in the prevention and treatment of protein tyrosine kinase related cellular disorders such as cancer.
Abstract: The present invention features a method for treatment of an organism having a disease or condition characterized by an abnormality in a signal transduction pathway, wherein the signal transduction pathway includes a rdgB protein. The invention also features methods for diagnosing such diseases and for screening for agents that will be useful in treating such diseases. The invention also features purified and/or isolated nucleic acid encoding a rdgB protein.

Abstract: A novel protein tyrosine phosphatase is the protein designated PTP 1D. The PTP 1D protein may be produced by recombinant means, for example using a nucleic acid construct encoding the protein as provided herein. Also disclosed is an antibody specific for an epitope of PTP 1D, protein. Methods for identifying compounds which bind to a PTP 1D protein and inhibit or stimulate its enzymatic activity, pharmaceutical compositions comprising PTP 1D, and methods for treating a disease associated with PTP 1D, and methods for treating a disease associated with PTP 1D protein using such compositions, are provided.
