  • Publication number: 20070275895
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel follistatin-3 protein which is a member of the family of inhibin-related proteins. In particular, isolated nucleic acid molecules are provided encoding the human follistatin-3 protein. Follistatin-3 polypeptides are also provided as are vectors, host cells and recombinant methods for producing the same. The invention further relates to screening methods for identifying agonists and antagonists of follistatin-3 activity. Also provided are diagnostic methods for detecting reproductive system-related disorders and disorders of the regulation of cell growth and differentiation and therapeutic methods for treating reproductive system-related disorders and disorders of the regulation of cell growth and differentiation.

  • Publication number: 20070178108
    Abstract: Human Colon Specific Polynucleotides (DNA and RNA), Polypeptides, and Antibodies, as well as methods for using and producing such polynucleotides, polypeptides, and antibodies are disclosed. More particularly, methods are disclosed for utilizing such polynucleotides, polypeptides, and antibodies to detect, diagnose, prevent, treat, and/or ameliorate cancer (particularly gastrointestinal tract cancers such as colon and pancreatic cancer). Also disclosed are compositions and methods for targeting and destroying cancer cells (particularly gastrointestinal tract cancers such as colon and pancreatic cancer) via the Colon Specific Protein and/or via the Colon Specific Protein Receptor. Moreover, methods of screening for antagonists and binding partners of the Colon Specific Protein and therapeutic uses of such antagonists and binding partners are also disclosed.
