The present invention provides asymmetrical duplex RNA molecules that are capable of effecting sequence-specific gene silencing. The RNA molecule comprises a first strand and a second strand. The first strand is longer than the second strand. The RNA molecule comprises a double-stranded region formed by the first strand and the second strand, and two ends independently selected from the group consisting of 5'-overhang, 3′-overhang, and blunt end. The RNA molecules of the present invention can be used as research tools and/or therapeutics.

Compositions of asymmetric interfering RNA and uses thereof

The present invention provides asymmetrical duplex RNA molecules that are capable of effecting sequence-specific gene silencing. The RNA molecule comprises a first strand and a second strand. The first strand is longer than the second strand. The RNA molecule comprises a double-stranded region formed by the first strand and the second strand, and two ends independently selected from the group consisting of 5'-overhang, 3&#x2032;-overhang, and blunt end. The RNA molecules of the present invention can be used as research tools and/or therapeutics.

The present invention relates to the use of a novel class of cancer stem cell pathway (CSCP) inhibitors; to methods of using such compounds to treat refractory, recurrent, or metastatic cancers; to methods of selective killing cancer cells by using such compounds with specific administration regimen; to methods of targeting cancer stem cells by inhibiting Stat3 pathway; to methods of using novel compounds in the treatment of conditions or disorders in a mammal related to aberrant Stat3 pathway activity; and to processes for preparing such compounds and intermediates thereof, and to the pharmaceutical composition of relevant compounds, and to the specific methods of administration of these compounds.

Group of STAT3 pathway inhibitors and cancer stem cell pathway inhibitors

Compounds as inhibitors of CSCPK and related kinases. The compounds are thiazole-substituted indolin-2-ones and are prepared from indolin-2-ones. They are included in pharmaceutical compositions and both the compounds and the pharmaceutical compositions are used in inhibiting cancer stem cells and in the treatment of a protean kinase related disorders.

Compositions of kinase inhibitors and their use for treatment of cancer and other diseases related to kinases

The invention provides novel inhibitors of cancer stem cells as well as cancer stem cell pathway kinase and other related kinases, pharmaceutical compositions and uses thereof in the treatment of cancer or a related disorder in a mammal, and methods of making such compounds and compositions.

Inhibitors of kinases and cancer stem cells, and methods of preparation and use thereof

The present invention relates to novel thiazole-substituted indolin-2-ones as inhibitors of CSCPK and related kinases; to methods of inhibiting cancer stem cells by using a kinase inhibitor; to pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds; and to methods of using such compounds in the treatment of a protein kinase related disorder in a mammal; and to processes of making such compounds and intermediates thereof.
