424 9321, 435377, 435455, 435 2, 435 21, 435 6
Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of phospholipase C zeta in inducing or promoting the activation of oocytes, preferably human oocytes, nuclear transfer embryos, parthenogenic embryos, cross species embryos and during in vitro fertilization.The invention further relates to methods of detecting levels of expression of phospholipase c zeta in sperm as a means of detecting male infertility.The invention also relates to the use of phospholipase C zeta to treat male infertility. Still further the invention relates to the recombinant cells that are engineered to express phospholipase C zeta, preferably under inducible conditions.Also, the invention relates to antibodies specific to phospholipase C zeta, preferably human phospholipase C zeta.

US Patent:
20140336202, Nov 13, 2014
Filed:
Dec 7, 2012
Appl. No.:
14/363346
Inventors:
- Durham NC, US
Manabu Kurokawa - Durham NC, US
Neil Spector - Durham NC, US
Mark Dewhirst - Durham NC, US
Assignee:
DUKE UNIVERSITY - Durham NC
International Classification:
A61K 31/517
A61K 31/404
G01N 33/50
A61K 31/496
US Classification:
51425405, 514409, 51426624, 435 21
Abstract:
Methods of treating subjects with cancer and screening for MDM2 inhibitors that may be effective cancer therapeutics are provided herein. The cancers that may be treated using MDM2 inhibitors using the methods described herein include those that are or may become resistant to treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Methods of treating subjects with cancers that have, or develop in response to treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors, elevated levels of MDM2, Mcl-1 or PP5 or decreased levels of Huwe1 or CAS using MDM2 inhibitors are provided herein. The MDM2 inhibitors may be effective at treating these cancers alone or in combination with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor regardless of p53 status (mutant or wild-type) of the cancer.
