  • Patent number: 10821106
    Abstract: This invention is related to the field of PCSK9 biology and the composition and methods of use of small organic compounds as ligands for modulation of PCSK9 biological activity. In particular, the invention provides compositions of small organic compounds that modulate circulating levels of low density lipoproteins by altering the conformation of the protein PCSK9. Binding these small organic compound ligands to PCSK9 alters the conformation of the protein, modifying the interaction between PCSK9 and an endogenous low density lipoprotein receptor, and can lead to reduced or increased levels of circulating LDL-cholesterol. High LDL-cholesterol levels are associated with increased risk for heart disease. Low LDL-cholesterol levels may be problematic in other conditions, such as liver dysfunction; thus, there is also utility for small organic compound ligands that can raise LDL levels.

  • Patent number: 10800749
    Abstract: In alternative embodiments, the invention provides nucleophilic hydroxyimino-acetamido alkylamine antidotes that cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) to catalyze the hydrolysis of organophosphate (OP)-inhibited human acetylcholinesterase (hAChE) in the central nerve system (CNS). The hydroxyimino-acetamido alkylamines of the invention are designed to fit within AChE active center gorge dimensions, bind with reasonable affinity, and react with the conjugated phosphate atom in the gorge. The hydroxyimino-acetamido alkylamines of the invention are also designed to possess ionization states that govern affinity and reactivity for the two linked hAChE re-activation steps.

  • Patent number: 10774063
    Abstract: Targeting uncontrolled cell proliferation and resistance to DNA damaging chemotherapeutics with at least one reagent has significant potential in cancer treatment. Replication Protein A, the eukaryotic single-strand (ss) DNA binding protein, is essential for genomic maintenance and stability via roles in both DNA replication and repair. Reported herein are small molecules that inhibit the in vitro, in vivo, and cellular ssDNA binding activity of RPA, thereby disrupting the eukaryotic cell cycle, inducing cytotoxicity and increasing the efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents damage DNA, and/or disrupt its replication and/or function. These results provide new insights into the mechanism of RPA-ssDNA interactions in chromosome maintenance and stability. This represents a molecularly targeted eukaryotic DNA binding inhibitor and demonstrates the utility of targeting a protein-DNA interaction as a means of studying the cell cycle and providing a therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment.
