  • Publication number: 20220257609
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods for treating a cholecystokinin (CCK) receptor-expressing cancerous tumor in a subject. The methods comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a CCK receptor inhibitor and an effective amount of an immune checkpoint inhibitor, wherein the CCK receptor inhibitor inhibits one or more CCK receptors selected from the group consisting of a CCK-A receptor, a CCK-B receptor and a CCK-C receptor, and wherein the immune checkpoint inhibitor is a programmed cell death protein 1 (PD1) inhibitor or a cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) inhibitor.

  • Patent number: 6593098
    Abstract: Novel human BUB genes and their encoded proteins are provided herein. The kinases encoded by the disclosed BUB1A and BUB1B genes play a pivotal role in mitotic checkpoint control. BUB3 is a substrate of these kinases, BUB genes and their encoded proteins provide valuable therapeutic targets for the design of anti-proliferative agents which inhibit the aberrant cellular proliferation observed in tumor cells.
