  • LASP-1, a novel urinary marker for transitional cell carcinoma detection
    Patent number: 9383363
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of LASP-1 in a urine sample obtained from a subject for diagnosing and/or grading transitional cell carcinoma. The invention furthermore relates to a method for diagnosing transitional cell carcinoma comprising detecting the presence or absence of LASP-1 in a urine sample obtained from a subject, wherein the presence of LASP-1 above 1 ng/500 ?l urine is indicative for transitional cell carcinoma and a method for grading transitional cell carcinoma comprising determining the level of LASP-1 in a urine sample obtained from a subject, wherein the level of LASP-1 correlates with the grade of the transitional cell carcinoma.
    Type: Grant

  • Derivatives of cyclic guanosine-3',5'-monophosphorothioate
    Patent number: 5625056
    Abstract: New derivatives of S.sub.P - and R.sub.P -configures cyclic guanosine-3',5'-phosphorothioates and their physiologically and pharmaceutically acceptable salts according to the general formula ##STR1## are cell membrane permeable inhibitors (R.sub.P -isomers) and stimulators (S.sub.P -isomers) of cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase which are resistant against phosphodiesterase degradation and suitable as ligands for affinity chromatography of cyclic nucleotide-dependent binding proteins.
