Abstract: Compounds and methods are provided for the treatment of pathogenic virus infections. Compositions and methods are provided for inhibiting RNA viruses.

Abstract: Compounds and methods are provided for the treatment of pathogenic virus infections or cancer. The formulations combine an inhibitor of de novo pyrimidine synthesis, and an inhibitor of a pyrimidine salvage pathway enzyme.

Abstract: Provided herein include methods and compositions for synthesis of Lipid IVA and derivatives thereof, using a defined set of pathway enzyme, which may be isolated and used to reconstitute all or part of the pathway in a cell-free reaction.

Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided for modulating the physiological activation of tissue transglutaminase (TG2); which methods can include inhibiting the activity of TG2 associated with inflammatory disorders, which disorders may include, without limitation, sepsis, ischemic reperfusion injury, renal fibrosis, and the like.

Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided for modulating the physiological activation of tissue transglutaminase (TG2); which methods can include inhibiting the activation of TG2 associated with enteric inflammatory disorders, which disorders may include celiac disease, irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn's Disease, dermatitis herpetiformis, and the like. In other embodiments of the invention, methods are provided for reducing undesirable paracellular transport in enteric tissues, in particular the paracellular transport of molecules greater than about 500 mw, e.g. peptides, including without limitation immunogenic gluten peptides.

Abstract: Administering an effective dose of glutenase to a Celiac or dermatitis herpetiformis patient reduces levels of toxic gluten oligopeptides, thereby attenuating or eliminating the damaging effects of gluten.

Abstract: A combination enzyme product consisting of a glutamine specific endoprotease and a prolyl endopeptidase is provided. Both enzymes are active and stable in the stomach and can therefore be administered as lyophilized powders or simple capsules/tablets. A ratio of the two enzymes is used to maximize their synergy.

Abstract: The response of a patient with an enteropathic disease to therapy, particularly a candidate therapy in a clinical trial setting, is assessed by detecting the ability of the patient to metabolize an orally administered CYP3A substrate. The CYP3A metabolism may be monitored in a variety of ways. Conveniently, the appearance of a metabolite of the CYP3A substrate is detected in a patient sample over a period of time following oral administration, e.g. in urine, plasma, breath, saliva, etc. The CYP3A substrate is optionally labeled, e.g. with an isotopic, fluorescent, etc. label.

Abstract: Transglutaminase inhibitors and methods of use thereof are provided.

Abstract: Detection of toxic gluten oligopeptides refractory to digestion and antibodies and T cells responsive thereto can be used to diagnose Celiac Sprue.

Abstract: The diagnosis of a patient with an enteropathic disease or the response of a patient with an enteropathic disease to therapy, particularly a candidate therapy in a clinical trial setting, is assessed by detecting the ability of the patient to metabolize an orally administered CYP3A substrate. The CYP3A metabolism may be monitored in a variety of ways. Conveniently, the appearance of a metabolite of the CYP3A substrate is detected in a patient sample over a period of time following oral administration, e.g. in urine, plasma, serum breath, saliva, etc. The CYP3A substrate is optionally labeled, e.g. with an isotopic, fluorescent, etc. label.
