  • Publication number: 20220340892
    Abstract: Partial depletion of RLIP76 in p53 deficient living subject has shown many health benefits. In one embodiment, partical Rlip depletion is used to prevent or treat cancer in p53 deficient living subjects. In another embodiment, partial Rlip depletion is used for reversion of DNA-methylation abnormalities caused by the lack of p53 to normal in p53 deficient living subjects. In yet another embodiment, partial Rlip depletion is used in reduction of blood glucose, insulin-resistance, hyperlipidemina, or any combination thereof in p53 deficient living subjects. Methods of using liposome containing anti-sense nucleic acid or double stranded siRNA to partially deplete RLIP76 and thus treat p53 deficient subject are disclosed. The approaches described herein can be especially helpful in preventing cancer in Li-Fraumeni patients.

  • Publication number: 20180256681
    Abstract: Methods of preparing a proteoliposome comprise the step of contacting a liposome with an effective portion of RalBP1 to create a proteoliposome. RalBP1 is effective for the protection and treatment of mammals and the environment against the accumulation of toxic compounds, and prevents accumulation of one or more toxic compounds, reduces the concentration of toxic compounds, and protects against further contamination with one or more toxic compounds. In addition, RalBP1 is effective for the protection and treatment of mammals against the effects of ionizing radiation.

  • Publication number: 20150152175
    Abstract: The present invention is a composition identified as a region of ralA binding protein 1, wherein the region neighbors a membrane-associated portion of the ralA binding protein 1, reduces transport activity and membrane association of the ralA binding protein 1 and kills cells undergoing uncontrolled cell growth in a subject that has cells undergoing uncontrolled cell growth. The region is used to generate medicines that kill malignant cells and tumorigenic cells. Medicines may be in the form of antibodies, si-RNA and small molecules that recognize the region.
