COMPOUNDS AND METHODS FOR THE TREATMENT OF PROLIFERATIVE DISEASES
- Summary
- Cell-based and cell-free assays are disclosed that detect compounds that promote aggregation of proteins, glycoproteins, and protein-nucleic acid complexes. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical formulations useful for treating or preventing viral infections, bacterial infections, cancer, and diseases involving hyper-proliferative cells.

Title: COMPOUNDS AND METHODS FOR THE TREATMENT OF PROLIFERATIVE DISEASES
Usefulness: COMPOUNDS AND METHODS FOR THE TREATMENT OF PROLIFERATIVE DISEASES
Summary: The method is useful for identifying a compound (that promote cytoplasmic nucleoprotein aggregation of proteins, glycoproteins, or protein-nucleic acid complexes), useful in formulations to treat or prevent viral infection, bacterial infection, cancer, a hyper-proliferative disease, and influenza A infection (including H1N1, H3N2, and H5N1) (all claimed). Test details are described but no results given.
Novelty: Identifying compounds that promote aggregation, used to treat e.g. viral infection, comprises e.g. treating cells with a test compound, adding fixing solution to stop protein translation, and treating cells with a fluorescent antibody
