    摘要: A substance identification method includes combining substances into four or more intermediate subpools in wells of a subpool plate and repooling the intermediate subpools into a number of final screening pools based on a repooling design providing the subpooled substances in at least three different final screening pools. The repooling design determines coordinates locating well positions for the substances. Another substance identification method includes using a two-dimensional array of wells arranged in rows and a number of columns that is at least 1.5 times the rows. Substances in the wells are combined into a number of screening pools. Individual screening pools include substances from wells having a row identifier in common with one other well. A pooling design provides the pooled substances in two different screening pools. The pooling design determines coordinates locating well positions for the substances.

    摘要: Methods of identifying specific target molecules for design of anti-angiogenic and vascular targeting approaches are disclosed. Transcriptional profiles of tumor endothelial cells were compared with that of normal resting endothelial cells, normal but angiogenically activated placental endothelial cells, and cultured endothelial cells. Although the majority of transcripts were classified as general angiogenesis markers, 17 genes were identified that show specific overexpression in tumor endothelium. Antibody targeting of four cell-surface expressed or secreted products (vimentin, CD59, HMGB1 and IGFBP7) inhibited angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo. Finally, targeting endothelial vimentin in a mouse tumor model significantly inhibited tumor growth and reduced microvessel density. The results demonstrate the utility of the identification and subsequent targeting of specific tumor endothelial markers for anticancer therapy.

    摘要: Aspects of the present invention are drawn to methods and compositions for the genetic analysis of regions of interest (ROI) from one or more starting polynucleotide sample(s). In certain aspects, adapter tagged polynucleotide fragments from a plurality of initial polynucleotide samples are pooled, circularized and amplified to produce an immortalized library. Multiple ROI's from this immortalized library are amplified (e.g., in independent iPCR reactions) to generate amplicons, and, in some embodiments, pooled to form a pooled ROI amplicon sample. In certain embodiments, the amplicons for each ROI amplicon in the pooled ROI amplicon sample are present at known molar or mass ratios. The pooled ROI amplicon sample can be analyzed/processed as desired, e.g., sequenced using next generation sequencing technology.

    摘要: Antigen-specific immunoglobulin V-regions are identified from a library of nucleic acids amplified using polymerase chain reaction using leader sequence-specific forward primers. The use of leader sequence primers allows all V-region sequences to be amplified (including those with extensive 5′ end mutations) without loss of the original 5′ V gene segment sequence. A second V-region library is made using a larger than conventional set of 5′ V-region primers. The sequence errors introduced into the amplification products by this method are corrected using sequence information obtained in the products amplified by the V-region primers to screen the library created using the leader sequence primers. Amino acid sequence information from fragments of donor immunoglobulins can be used to assist in the identification of nucleic acids encoding the heavy and light chains of donor antibodies as well as to design primers to amplify such nucleic acids.

    摘要: In some aspects, the invention provides a genetically tractable in situ non-human animal model for hepatocellular carcinoma. The model is useful, inter alia, in understanding the molecular mechanisms of liver cancer, in understanding the genetic alterations that lead to chemoresistance or poor prognosis, and in identifying and evaluating new therapies against hepatocellular carcinomas. The liver cancer model of this invention is made by altering hepatocytes to increase oncogene expression, to reduce tumor suppressor gene expression or both and by transplanting the resulting hepatocytes into a recipient non-human animal.The present invention also provides methods for identifying and validating tumor suppressor genes by screening pools of shRNAs that target genomic regions deleted in human cancers, such as human hepatocellular carcinomas. The present invention also provides validated tumor suppressor genes, and methods of inhibiting cell proliferation and/or tumor growth, for example by expression of such tumor suppressor genes.
