  • Patent number: 7700543
    Abstract: The use of NF-?B inhibitors to enhance the cytotoxic effects of chemotherapy or radiation therapy in the treatment of neoplastic conditions is described. When chemotherapeutic compounds and radiation activate NF-?B within cells, the cells are more resistant to the cytotoxic effects of these treatments. Inhibition of NF-?B activation is disclosed to provide a method to improve the efficacy of these cancer therapies.

  • Publication number: 20040214757
    Abstract: Constitutive and tissue-specific protein factors which bind to transcriptional regulatory elements of Ig genes (promoter and enhancer) are described. The factors were identified and isolated by an improved assay for protein-DNA binding. Genes encoding factors which positively regulate transcription can be isolated and employed to enhance transcription of Ig genes. In particular, NF-kB, the gene encoding NF-kB, IkB and the gene encoding IkB and uses therefor.
