Natural product-based anti-cancer agents: aza-Englerin analogues

Abstract: Chemotherapy resistance in a wide array of cancers is often associated with enhanced glucose uptake and dysregulation of the insulin signaling pathway. Therapeutics capable of inhibiting insulin signaling would be valuable as a stand-alone treatment and for sensitizing resistant tumors to standard chemotherapy regiments. Researchers at NCI’s...

Use of beclin 1 Inhibitors, including 17-hydroxy Wortmannin, to Treat TRAIL-resistant Cancer

This technology includes the use of a beclin 1 inhibitor, 17-hydroxy Wortmannin, for the treatment of TRAIL-resistant colon cancer. TRAIL (TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) binds to death receptors (DR4/DR5) and activates apoptosis in cancer cells. Multiple clinical trials have focused on promoting TRAIL-induced death but have had a lack of efficacy...

Real-Time PCR Assay for HIV-1 Subtype Diagnosis and Global Surveillance of Drug Resistance

CDC researchers have developed a patented set of RT-PCR and sequencing primers based on HIV-1 group M sequences. Evaluation of the primers using samples collected around the world demonstrated broad detection capacity for multiple HIV-1 group subtypes and predominant circulating recombinant forms. Commercially available HIV-1 drug resistance (HIVDR)...

Simple, Rapid, and Sensitive Real-Time PCR Assays for Detecting Drug Resistance of HIV

This novel assay features real-time PCR reagents and methods for detecting drug-resistance related mutations in HIV, for newly diagnosed patients and those individuals currently receiving antiretroviral therapies. As the use of antiretroviral compounds to treat HIV infection proliferates, viruses adapt and evolve mutations limiting the efficacy of...

Rapid Detection of Antiretroviral(s) Drug-Resistant HIV-1 within Clinical Samples

One of the problems with the development of current therapies for HIV infection is that the virus rapidly develops resistance to drugs such as reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitors. CDC researchers have developed an enzyme-based methodology for detecting phenotypic resistance to antiretroviral drugs whose mode of action decreases the efficiency of...

Endotracheal Tube Using Unique Leak Hole to Lower Dead Space

Through injury or diseases, human or animal lungs may become too weak to sustain a sufficient flow of oxygen to the body and to remove adequate amounts of expired carbon dioxide. The present invention is a tracheal tube ventilation apparatus which efficiently rids patients of expired gases and promotes healthier breathing. This is accomplished by...
