  • Transcription factor decoy and tumor growth inhibitor
    Patent number: 6060310
    Abstract: The present invention provides compositions with high affinity for a target transcription factor, that can be introduced into cells as decoy cis-elements to bind the factor and alter gene expression. Specifically, the present invention provides nucleic acid molecules that compete with cAMP response element (CRE) enhancers for binding to transcription factors.

  • Antisense oligonucleotides of human regulatory subunit RI-alpha of cAMP dependent protein kinases for the treatment of cancer
    Patent number: 5691317
    Abstract: Antisense oligonucleotides of human regulatory subunit RI-alpha of cAMP-dependent protein kinases are disclosed along with pharmaceutical compositions containing these oligonucleotides as the active ingredients. These antisense oligonucleotides are useful for inhibiting the growth of cancer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 2, 1995
    Date of Patent: November 25, 1997
    Inventor: Yoon S. Cho-Chung

  • Antisense oligonucleotides of human regulatory subunit RI.sub..alpha. of cAMP-dependent protein kinases
    Patent number: 5271941
    Abstract: Antisense oligonucleotides of human regulatory subunit RI-alpha of cAMP-dependent protein kinases are disclosed along with pharmaceutical compositions containing these oligonucleotides as the active ingredients. These antisense oligonucleotides have been shown to inhibit the growth of several cancer cell lines including HL-60, human colon carcinoma LS-174T, neuroblastoma cells, breast cancer cells, and gastric carcinoma cells. In addition, these oligonucleotides can inhibit the growth of human colon carcinoma cells transplanted in athymic mice.
