Composition And Method For Modulating An Inflammatory Response

View page
US Patent:
20040038299, Feb 26, 2004
Filed:
Feb 10, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/361270
Inventors:
Jun Kuai - Lexington MA, US
Joseph Wooters - Brighton MA, US
Elliott Nickbarg - Belmont MA, US
Yongchang Qiu - Arlington MA, US
Lih-Ling Lin - Concord MA, US
International Classification:
G01N033/53
C07K014/705
US Classification:
435/007100, 530/350000
Abstract:
The invention relates to compositions and methods comprising lymphotoxin-beta receptor (LTR) modulators, which activate or inhibit LTR signaling. LTR modulators are useful for treating lymphocyte mediated immunological diseases and cancer, and more particularly, for regulating mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis. This invention relates to soluble forms of the LTR complex proteins that act as LTR activating or inhibiting agents. This invention also relates to the use of soluble molecules, directed against either the LTR, its ligands, LIGHT and LT12, or its intracellular binding partners, that function to regulate LTR signaling. A novel screening method for selecting soluble receptors, antibodies and other agents that modulate LTR signaling is provided.

US Patent:
20060078944, Apr 13, 2006
Filed:
Aug 1, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/523328
Inventors:
Jun Kuai - Cambridge MA, US
Lih-Ling Lin - Concord MA, US
Joseph Wooters - Brighton MA, US
Elliott Nickbarg - Belmont MA, US
International Classification:
G01N 33/53
C12P 21/02
C12N 9/12
C07K 14/535
C07K 14/715
US Classification:
435007100, 435320100, 435325000, 435069500, 530350000, 530351000, 435194000
Abstract:
The present invention relates to, among other embodiments, protein complexes which include tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and/or tumor necrosis factor alpha receptor (TNFR). Preferably, the complexes comprise at least one polypeptide selected from the group consisting of: NF-κB activating kinase (NAK), RasGAP3, TRCP1, and TRCP2. The present invention further provides assays of identifying a compound for modulating the stability and activity of the complex. Also provided are methods of modulating apoptosis and inflammation, as well as treating TNF-α related diseases.

12/009166
Inventors:
Jun Kuai - Lexington MA, US
Ken Dower - Medford MA, US
Jeffrey Lawrence Feldman - Arlington MA, US
Debra Denene Pittman - Windham MA, US
David Gunther Winkler - Arlington MA, US
Lih-Ling Lin - Concord MA, US
Scott Alan Jelinsky - Acton MA, US
Cara Williams - Methuen MA, US
International Classification:
A61K 49/00
A61K 31/7088
A61K 39/00
C07K 16/00
A61K 38/02
G01N 33/53
A61K 39/395
C07H 21/02
A61P 37/06
US Classification:
424 92, 514 44, 4241841, 5303881, 4241411, 536 231, 435 72, 435 71, 514 12
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods of treating inflammatory diseases/disorders in a subject by inhibiting/antagonizing TREM-1 expression/activity/signal transduction and/or DAP12/TyroBP expression and/or activity. Methods of detecting the presence of inflammatory disease in a subject by detecting TREM-1 and/or DAP12/TyroBP expression and/or activity in the subject or a sample obtained therefrom, wherein increased expression or activity is indicative of the inflammatory disease are also included. The present invention further provides methods for assessing the efficacy of a TREM-1-modulating agent administered to a patient by detecting levels of secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1) and/or one or more other biomarkers in the patient or in a sample from the patient.

US Patent:
20080248460, Oct 9, 2008
Filed:
Jul 6, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/825385
Inventors:
Jun Kuai - Lexington MA, US
Joseph L. Wooters - Brighton MA, US
Elliott Nickbarg - Belmont MA, US
Yongchang Qiu - Arlington MA, US
Lih-Ling Lin - Concord MA, US
International Classification:
C12Q 1/70
C12Q 1/02
C12Q 1/68
G01N 33/573
US Classification:
435 5, 435 29, 435 6, 435 792
Abstract:
The invention relates to compositions and methods comprising lymphotoxin-beta receptor (LTβR) modulators, which activate or inhibit LTβR signaling. LTβR modulators are useful for treating lymphocyte mediated immunological diseases and cancer, and more particularly, for regulating mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis. This invention relates to soluble forms of the LTβR complex proteins that act as LTβR activating or inhibiting agents. This invention also relates to the use of soluble molecules, directed against either the LTβR, its ligands, LIGHT and LTβ1α2, or its intracellular binding partners, that function to regulate LTβR signaling. A novel screening method for selecting soluble receptors, antibodies and other agents that modulate LTβR signaling is provided.
