  • Patent number: 7902167
    Abstract: A small nucleic acid molecule that down-regulates expression of Wrap53 gene via RNA interference (RNAi), wherein at least one strand of said small nucleic acid molecule is about 15 to about 30 nucleotides in length; and wherein at least one strand of said small nucleic acid molecule comprises a nucleotide sequence having sufficient complementarity to an RNA of said Wrap53 gene for the small nucleic acid molecule to direct cleavage of said RNA via RNA interference, for use as a medicament.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 1, 2007
    Date of Patent: March 8, 2011
    Assignee: Aprea AB
    Inventors: Marianne Farnebo, Salah Mahmoudi, Klas Wiman

  • Patent number: 7659278
    Abstract: The present invention provides novel compounds, corresponding to formulae I and II, respectively, which are able to reactivate the apoptosis-inducing function of mutant p53 proteins. This reactivation is provided by restoration of sequence-specific DNA-binding activity and transcriptional transactivation function to mutant p53 proteins, and modulation of the conformation-dependent epitopes of the p53 protein. Accordingly, the substances according to the invention will be used in pharmaceutical compositions and methods for treatment of patients suffering from various types of tumours.
