Publication number: 20120121536Abstract: Glucose deprivation is an attractive strategy in cancer research and treatment. Cancer cells upregulate glucose uptake and metabolism for maintaining accelerated growth and proliferation rates. Specifically blocking these processes is likely to provide new insights to the role of glucose transport and metabolism in tumorigenesis, as well as in apoptosis. As solid tumors outgrow the surrounding vasculature, they encounter microenvironments with a limited supply of nutrients leading to a glucose deprived environment in some regions of the tumor. Cancer cells living in the glucose deprived environment undergo changes to prevent glucose deprivation-induced apoptosis. Knowing how cancer cells evade apoptosis induction is also likely to yield valuable information and knowledge of how to overcome the resistance to apoptosis induction in cancer cells.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 24, 2011Publication date: May 17, 2012Applicant: OHIO UNIVERSITYInventors: Xiaozhuo Chen, Stephen Bergmeier

More specifically, the subject invention is directed to methods for identifying a ligand that binds to a target biological molecule of interest, wherein a population of small organic compounds are selected and then “pre-screened” to identify those that are capable of binding to the molecular target.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 1998Date of Patent: February 5, 2002Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Jonathan A. Ellman, Ingrid Choong

Patent number: 6344334Abstract: Method for identifying a drug lead compound that inhibits binding of target bioogical molecules (TBM) by contacting TBM with members of a library of candidate cross-linked target binding fragments (CXBF), each CXBF having at least two candidate target bindig fragments (CTBF), which are inhibitors of binding, linked to a cross-linker, and selecting CXBF that inhibit the binding of the TBM to a greater extent than either of the individual CTBF linked to said cross-linker, wherein the library of CXBF is produced by: (a) screening a population of CTBF capable of being chemically cross-linked by a cross-linker to identify a subpopulation of the CTBF that inhibit binding of the TBM; and (b) chemically cross-linking members of the subpopulation of CTBF or structurally related analogs thereof with a cross-linker to provide a library of CXBF, wherein at least one linking group comprises an oxime ether linking group.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 1999Date of Patent: February 5, 2002Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Jonathan A. Ellman, Ingrid Choong

Patent number: 5877185Abstract: The subject invention provides for novel synergistic compositions useful for inactivating viruses or inducing apoptosis in tumor cells and for treating cancer or retroviral infections. Generally, the compositions comprise one or a plurality of ligands that oxidatively attack a zinc finger of pADPRT in combination with one or a plurality of agents selected from the group consisting of: agents that decrease cellular levels of glutathione and ligands that non-covalently bind to the nicotinamide site of pADPRT but do not effect zinc ejection from a zinc finger of pADPRT.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 1995Date of Patent: March 2, 1999Assignee: Octamer, Inc.Inventors: Ernest Kun, Jerome Mendeleyev, Eva Kirsten

Patent number: 5830912Abstract: The present invention comprises 6,8-difluoro-7-hydroxycoumarins and derivatives of 6,8-difluoro-7-hydroxycoumarins, including reactive dyes, dye-conjugates and enzyme substrates. These fluorine-substituted fluorescent dyes typically possess greater photostability and lower pH sensitivity in the physiological pH range than their nonfluorinated analogs, exhibit less fluorescence quenching when conjugated to a substance, possess absorption and emission spectra that closely match those of their nonfluorinated analogs, and also exhibit higher quantum yields than their nonfluorinated analogs.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 1996Date of Patent: November 3, 1998Assignee: Molecular Probes, Inc.Inventors: Kyle R. Gee, Richard P. Haugland, Wei-Chuan Sun
