  • Use of biomolecular targets in the treatment and visualization of tumors
    Publication number: 20040224337
    Abstract: PTPL1/FAP-1 is shown to be differentially expressed in primary brain tumor tissues, as compared to normal brain tissues. PTPL1/FAP-1 is useful as a biomolecular target for brain tumor treatment therapies. Agents are screened for their effect on PTPL1/FAP-1, and find use as therapeutic agents. Determination of PTPL1/FAP-1 overexpression provides diagnostic tests for detecting and staging brain tumors. The invention also provides compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable compositions for administration to patients suffering from a brain tumor.
