Evgeny Nudler has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20090186829
    Abstract: Biomacromolecules such as proteins are inactivated by hydrophobic ANSA derivatives of the formula: wherein R1 and R2 are hydrophobic or affinity groups and R3 is selected from the group consisting of aminoacyl groups and peptidyl groups upon nitrosation. ANSA derivatives can be designed to selectively kill tumor cells and various pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi.

  • Publication number: 20080182797
    Abstract: This invention discloses isolated short peptides comprising the amino acid sequence Cys-Glu-Phe-His (CEFH) and analogs thereof as well as compositions comprising CEFH peptides and analogs thereof. The CEFH peptides disclosed herein are effective in mediating the denitration of 3-nitrotyrosines (3-NT) in cellular proteins thereby preventing tissue damage associated with excess nitric oxide (NO) and its reactive species. The CEFH peptides disclosed herein are useful in the treatment of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury of various tissues (e.g., I/R injury of heart muscle associated with heart attack or cardiac surgery, I/R injury of brain tissue associated with stroke, I/R injury of liver tissue, skeletal muscles, etc.), septic shock, anaphylactic shock, neurodegenerative diseases (e.g.

  • Publication number: 20070238682
    Abstract: The present invention provides a novel RNA, designated herein as the “HSR1” (Heat Shock RNA), and its use together with translation elongation factor eEF1A in activation of heat shock transcription factor HSF. The invention further provides the use of HSR1 for generation of novel therapeutics for the treatment of cancer, inflammation, ischemia, neurodegeneration, age-related diseases, HIV infection, deafness, and related disorders.
