HPV proteins as targets for therapeutic intervention.
Human papillomaviruses (HPV) are the aetiological agents of several types of anogenital tumours, particularly cervical carcinoma. Recent evidence also suggests a role for HPV in the development of squamous cell carcinomas of the skin, especially in immunocompromised individuals. HPV infection also produces a number of non-malignant, but nonetheless cosmetically unpleasant lesions. Therefore, an...
متن کاملHeat shock proteins as emerging therapeutic targets.
Chaperones (stress proteins) are essential proteins to help the formation and maintenance of the proper conformation of other proteins and to promote cell survival after a large variety of environmental stresses. Therefore, normal chaperone function is a key factor for endogenous stress adaptation of several tissues. However, altered chaperone function has been associated with the development o...
متن کاملProlyl Isomerases –Old Proteins as New Therapeutic Targets
Prolyl isomerases comprise three main protein families totalling over thirty mammalian genes, and several hundred orthologues across the biological domains, with a very broad spectrum of physiological functions and disease implications. Potent small molecule inhibitors exist for members of the three main mammalian families (cyclophilins, FKBPs and parvulins),. but, until recently, these protein...
متن کاملSmall G proteins as novel therapeutic targets in cardiovascular medicine.
Small G proteins are implicated in regulation of endothelial function, smooth muscle cell contraction, proliferation, and migration, as well as cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Targeting small G proteins and their downstream signaling could constitute promising therapeutic approaches in cardiovascular disorders such as atherosclerosis, restenosis, hypertension, vasospasm, and cardiac hypertrophy.
متن کاملNonstructural HIV proteins as targets for prophylactic or therapeutic vaccines.
By the end of 2004, more than 20 HIV-1 vaccine candidates will have entered clinical testing in at least 30 trials worldwide. Almost half of these vaccines include nonstructural HIV-1 gene products. This represents an important innovation in the HIV vaccine field, because until 9 years ago not even preclinical testing in small animal models had been carried out with such immunogens. This review...
