Methods And Compositions For Inducing Apoptosis By Stimulating Er Stress

View page
US Patent:
20090062227, Mar 5, 2009
Filed:
Mar 26, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/056192
Inventors:
AXEL H. SCHONTHAL - LOS ANGELES CA, US
NICOS A. PETASIS - HACIENDA HEIGHTS CA, US
FLORENCE M. HOFMAN - VENICE CA, US
STAN G. LOUIE - FULLERTON CA, US
THOMAS C. CHEN - LA CANADA CA, US
Assignee:
UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA - LOS ANGELES CA
International Classification:
A61K 31/415
A61K 31/69
A61K 31/472
A61K 31/4418
A61K 31/427
A61K 31/496
A61K 31/7105
C40B 30/00
A61P 35/00
US Classification:
514 44, 514406, 514 64, 514307, 514357, 514365, 51425309, 506 7
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for inducing apoptosis in selected cells by aggravating ER-stress. The aggravation of ER-stress is achieved in a specific manner by inhibiting SERCA (sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase), leading to elevated level of cytoplasmic calcium concentration, yet without inhibiting the activity of COX-2 (cyclooxygenase-2) or triggering the release of histamine. Induction of apoptosis may be enhanced by first inducing or further aggravating ER-stress through inhibition of proteasome or proteases. Also provided are compounds and compositions useful as ER-stress aggravating agents, methods for screening, selecting, identifying and designing the same and methods for treating diseased conditions by inducing apoptosis through specific and selective aggravation of ER-stress.

US Patent:
20140288115, Sep 25, 2014
Filed:
Jun 6, 2014
Appl. No.:
14/298697
Inventors:
Thomas C. Chen - Los Angeles CA, US
Florence M. Hofman - Los Angeles CA, US
Stan G. Louie - Los Angeles CA, US
Axel H. Schonthal - Los Angeles CA, US
Nicos A. Petasis - Los Angeles CA, US
Assignee:
UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA - Los Angeles CA
International Classification:
A61K 31/4741
A61N 5/10
C12Q 1/68
A61K 31/495
A61K 45/06
US Classification:
514291, 514393, 435375, 435 618, 600 1
Abstract:
It is discovered that noscapine is effective in treating temozolomide (TMZ)-resistant brain cancer. Provided are compositions and methods of treating brain cancer patients, in particular those that are TMZ-resistant. The patients are treated by administration of a therapeutically effective amount of noscapine or an analog thereof. In certain aspects, TMZ is also administered to the patients. Examples of brain cancers include glioma such as glioblastoma multiforme.
