  • Patent number: 6787323
    Abstract: A VEGF responsive cell-based assay for determining VEGF bioactivity is disclosed. The assay utilizes established signal transduction pathways in a method for determining VEGF bioactivity in a sample.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 7, 2002
    Date of Patent: September 7, 2004
    Assignee: Pfizer Inc
    Inventors: Brian Lee Batley, Tawny Kay Dahring, Sotirios K. Karathanasis, Robert Lee Panek, Ye Edward Tian
  • Publication number: 20020146679
    Abstract: The proposed invention relates to a method for creating cell culture conditions which causes human endothelial cells in culture when exposed to a cytokine, preferably, TNF&agr; for periods of longer than 5 days (chronic exposure) to become unresponsive to growth factors and other substances in serum. The cell culture assay system allows for screening for novel molecules that may correct endothelial dysfunction and will help identify genes that could be used to prevent or correct endothelial dysfunction with gene therapy.
    Type: Application
    Filed: December 18, 2001

  • Patent number: 6136798
    Abstract: The present invention provides compounds that inhibit the association of platelet-derived growth factor and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions that contain a compound that inhibits the association of platelet-derived growth factor and phosphatidylinosital 3-kinase, and methods of treating cancer, restenosis, arthritis, dermatitis, atherosclerosis, vein graft intimal hyperplasia, neointimal hyperplasia of vascular smooth muscle and psoriasis using compounds that inhibit the association of platelet-derived growth factor and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 22, 1999
    Date of Patent: October 24, 2000
    Assignee: Warner-Lambert Company
    Inventors: Wayne Livingston Cody, Annette Marian Doherty, Scott R. Eaton, Robert Lee Panek
  • Patent number: 5952342
    Abstract: 6-Aryl naphthyridines are inhibitors of protein tyrosine kinase, and are thus useful in treating cellular proliferation mediated thereby. The compounds are especially useful in treating atherosclerosis, restenosis, psoriasis, as well as bacterial infections.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 18, 1998
    Date of Patent: September 14, 1999
    Assignee: Warner-Lambert Company
    Inventors: Clifton John Blankley, Annette Marian Doherty, James Marino Hamby, Robert Lee Panek, Mel Conrad Schroeder, Howard Daniel Hollis Showalter, Cleo Connolly
  • Patent number: 5733914
    Abstract: 6-Aryl pyrido?2,3-d!pyrimidine 7-imines, 7-ones, and 7-thiones are inhibitors of protein tyrosine kinases, and are thus useful in treating cellular proliferation mediated thereby. The compounds are especially useful in treating cancer, atherosclerosis, restenosis, and psoriasis.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 3, 1996
    Date of Patent: March 31, 1998
    Assignee: Warner-Lambert Company
    Inventors: Clifton John Blankley, Diane Harris Boschelli, Annette Marian Doherty, James Marino Hamby, Sylvester Klutchko, Robert Lee Panek
