  • Pharmaceutical compositions which inhibit FKBP52-mediated regulation of androgen receptor function and methods of using same
    Patent number: 9782399
    Abstract: Pharmaceutical compositions that bind to a predicted FK506 Binding Protein 52 (FKBP52) interaction surface on the androgen receptor hormone binding domain, otherwise known as FKBP52 Targeting Agents (FTAs) are provided. These compositions of the present invention are found to specifically recognize the FKBP52 regulatory surface on the androgen receptor and inhibit FKBP52 from functionally interacting with the androgen receptor. Compositions comprising the pharmaceutical composition, as well as methods of use, treatment and screening are also provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 1, 2015
    Date of Patent: October 10, 2017
    Assignees: The United States of America, as represented by The Secretary, Department of Health and Human Services, The Regents of the University of California, The Board of Regents of The University of Texas System
    Inventors: Leonard M. Neckers, Marc B. Cox, Jane B. Neckers, Yeong Sang Kim, Aki Iwai, Yangmin Ning, Johanny Kugelman-Tonos, Heather A. Balsiger, Robert Fletterick
