COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR INHIBITING THE ACTIVATION OF DSRNA-DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASE AND TUMOR GROWTH INHIBITION

摘要

The present invention relates to compositions and methods for preventing and treating a condition in a mammalian subject that include at least one inhibitor of double stranded RNA dependent protein kinase (PKR-I) prior to or concurrently with the treatment, wherein the treatment results to an inhibition of activation of dsRNA-dependent protein kinase. The compositions and methods of the present invention further include at least one potentiator that further enhances the inhibition of phosphorylation by PKR-I.
