Gene Expression Profiling Of Esophageal Carcinomas

View page
US Patent:
20100216131, Aug 26, 2010
Filed:
Dec 10, 2007
Appl. No.:
12/518441
Inventors:
Rajyalakshmi Luthra - Missouri City TX, US
Jaffer A. Ajani - Houston TX, US
Maden G. Luthra - Missouri City TX, US
International Classification:
C12Q 1/00
C07H 21/02
US Classification:
435 6, 536 2433, 536 231
Abstract:
The present invention generally regards gene expression profiling of esophageal cancers, including localized esophageal cancers. In particular, gene expression for a particular group of genes identifies individuals that are either going to be responsive to cancer therapy, for example chemotherapy and/or radiation, or that are not going to be responsive to cancer therapy. Exemplary genes having such expression profiles include, for example, PERP, S100A2, and SPRR3.

Methods For The Treatment Of Malignant Disease In Patients Using Citrulline Containing Amino Acid Solutions

View page
US Patent:
51890259, Feb 23, 1993
Filed:
May 14, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/510028
Inventors:
Jaffer Ajani - Houston TX
Bruce Grossie - Houston TX
Kenji Nishioka - Houston TX
David M. Ota - Houston TX
Assignee:
Board of Regenets, The University of Texas System - Austin TX
International Classification:
A61K 3170
A61K 31415
A61K 3140
A61K 31195
US Classification:
514 23
Abstract:
Disclosed are total parenteral nutrition formulations which include essential amino acids in combination with either arginine or ornithine, for use in the detection of recurrent malignant disease in patients. Such formulations stimulate tumor-specfic polyamine production to a greater extent than non-tumor related polyamine production. Additionally, such formulations were found to specifically promote an increase in red blood cell putrescine levels of tumor-bearing rats. Nontumor-bearing rats were not found to be similarly reactive to these formulations. Methods for making and administering these formulations as well as their use in preventing DFMO-induced toxicity are also disclosed. Also disclosed are parenteral nutritional formulations which include both citrulline and ornithine which have an arginine concentration of less than about 0. 10% by weight final concentration.
