  • Publication number: 20150110774
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound, composition and method for reducing or inhibiting the differentiation or development of progenitor blood cells into malignant cells, leukemia cells or physiologically pathological cells. Particularly, the invention describes the use of inhibitors of S100 proteins, including myeloid related proteins. Inhibition of the activity or synthesis of S100 proteins results into reduction or inhibition of the production or proliferation of aberrant and cancer blood cells.

  • Publication number: 20140348849
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds and methods for modulating, reducing or inhibiting, inflammatory reactions in a patient. Particularly, inflammatory reactions that are targeted by the present invention are cell migration, secretion of toxic products and proteolysis at a site of inflammation. Reduction of inflammation manifestations and reactions occurs by using an anti-S100 polynucleotide or polypeptide inhibitor or antagonist, which is essentially targeted against S100A8, S100A9 or S100A12, alone or in combination with other inhibitors of chemokines or immune modulating products.

  • Publication number: 20070166322
    Abstract: An immunopotentiating composition comprising a papaya mosaic virus (PapMV), or a virus-like particle (VLP) derived from PapMV coat protein, which is capable of functioning as an adjuvant and thus potentiating an immune response in an animal is provided. The immunopotentiating composition can further comprise an immunogen, which can be fused or otherwise linked to the VLP, or not linked to the VLP. The immunopotentiating composition is capable of potentiating a humoral and/or a cellular response in the animal and is suitable for use as an adjuvant or vaccine. Methods of potentiating an immune response in an animal comprising administering to the animal an immunopotentiating composition are also provided have application in both human and veterinary medicine.
