Discovery of Well Defined Sulfated Glycopolymers as Specific Heparanase Inhibitors for Cancer Therapeutics
The remodeling of the extracellular matrix has been shown to be highly upregulated in cancer and inflammation and is critically linked to the processes of invasion and metastasis. The finding that heparanase is elevated in a wide variety of tumor types and is subsequently linked to the development of pathological processes has led to an explosion of...

Identification of Galeterone's mechanism of action leading to novel treatment therapies for castrate resistant prostate cancer (CRPC)
Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC) or Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer (HRPC), is a type of prostate cancer that typically recurs after administering androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). The need for effective therapies for these difficult to treat cancers is gaining prominence in the prostate cancer market. The global CRPC market is poised...

Fc-folate conjugate for the treatment of triple negative breast cancer
Approximately 13% of women in the United States will develop breast cancer according to the American Cancer Society. That makes breast cancer the second leading cause of cancer death in women right behind lung cancer. Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents about 10 – 20% of all breast cancers. Triple negative refers to cancer cells...

Disulfide by Design 2.0: A web-based tool for disulfide engineering in proteins
Background:Immunoinformatics employs a computer-driven approach to identifying fragments of the target pathogen that would provide a suitable vaccine, avoiding potential safety concerns from the more traditional approach of using whole pathogens. Immunoinformatics now plays a crucial role in vaccine design, immunodiagnostic development, and antibody...

Microfluidic platforms for live-cell imaging and bio/pathomimetic tissue models
Background:Methodologies to image and quantify tissue models using high-content analysis (HCI) and functional analyses of 3D avatars are needed as such avatars better recapitulate the phenotype of pathobiological processes and better predict efficacy of, and resistance to, a wide variety of therapies. Furthermore, changes in morphometry, viability,...

Drugs that disrupt interactions between ELK1 and the androgen receptor to suppress growth of both early stage and castration resistant prostate cancer
Background:Prostate cancer is the second-most commonly diagnosed cancer among men and the fifth most common cause of male cancer death worldwide. Although tumors are often initially sensitive to medical or surgical therapies that decrease levels of testosterone, continued disease progression generally represents a transition to the lethal variant. In...
