Publication number: 20130143852Abstract: Model and method of treating inflammatory diseases. Traditional treatments for such diseases include administering to the patient toxic anti-inflammatory drugs. Following stabilization of the symptoms, the drug doses are tapered down to minimize side effects, as a result of which inflammation remains high and the disease is rarely cured. A chemistry-based disease model concludes that irrespective of the role that inflammation plays in the disease, inflammation reduction will impede disease initiation and progression. Managing and controlling inflammatory diseases requires reducing inflammation to acceptable normal values. Non-toxic ways such as anti-inflammatory diets and regular exercise allow such reduction in inflammation to normal values, thereby slowing down or arresting disease progression and allowing reduction in the required anti-inflammatory drug maintenance dose.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2012Publication date: June 6, 2013Inventor: Kaplesh Kumar

Publication number: 20130005666Abstract: The NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a key transcriptional regulator of antioxidant defense and detoxification. To directly monitor stabilization of Nrf2 we fused its Neh2 domain, responsible for the interaction with its nucleocytoplasmic regulator, Keap1, to firefly luciferase (Neh2-luciferase). It is shown herein that Neh2 domain is sufficient for recognition, ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of Neh2-luciferase fusion protein. The novel Neh2-luc reporter system allows direct monitoring of the adaptive response to redox stress and classification of drugs based on the time-course of reporter activation. The novel reporter was used to screen a library of compounds to identify activators of Nrf2. The most robust and yet non toxic Nrf2 activators found—nordihydroguaiaretic acid, fisetin, and gedunin-induced astrocyte-dependent neuroprotection from oxidative stress via an Nrf2-dependent mechanism.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2012Publication date: January 3, 2013Applicant: CORNELL UNIVERSITYInventors: Rajiv RATAN, Irina GAZARYAN, Natalya A.
