Abstract

This invention provides compositions and methods to diagnose and treat polycystic disorders by inhibiting the biological activity of a gene now correlated with appearance of this disorder. By way of illustrative only, the Connective Tissue Growth Factor (CTGF) gene is an example of such a gene. Also provided by this invention are compositions and methods to treat or ameliorate abnormal cystic lesions and diseases associated with the formation of cysts in tissue. The methods and compositions treat and ameliorate pathological cyst formation in tissue by inhibiting or augmenting gene expression or the biological activity of its gene expression product or its receptor.

METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR THE TREATMENT OF
POLYCYSTIC DISEASES

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. 119(e) to U.S.
Provisional Applications, U.S. Serial Nos. 60/566,670 and 60/590,385, filed April 29, 2004 and July 22, 2004, respectively. The contents of these applications are incorporated by reference into the present disclosure.
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention is related to the area of polycystic diseases and to the diagnosis and treatment of such diseases.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is the most common genetic renal disorder occurring in 1:1000 individuals and is characterized by focal cyst formation in all tubular segments (Friedman, J.
Cystic Diseases of the Kidney, in PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF MEDICAL
GENETICS (A. Emery and D. Rimoin, Eds.) pp. 1002-1010, Churchill Livingston, Edinburgh, U.K. (1983); Striker & Striker (1986) Am. J. Nephrol.
6:161-164. Extrarenal manifestations include hepatic and pancreatic cysts as well as cardiovascular complications. Gabow & Grantham (1997)

Claims (29)

1. A method for inhibiting cystic disorders or abnormalities in a suitable tissue by contacting the tissue with an effective amount of an agent that modulates the biological activity of a gene or polynucleotide identified in Tables 2 through 5, thereby inhibiting cystic abnormalities.
2. The method of claim 1, wherein the suitable tissue is selected from the group consisting of tubular kidney tissue, hepatic tissue and pancreatic tissue.
3. The method of claim 2, wherein the suitable tissue is isolated from a subject suffering from ADPKD.
4. The method of claim 1, wherein the modulating agent is a polynucleotide that modulates the activity or expression of a polynucleotide or gene identified in Tables 2 through 5.
5. The method of claim 4, wherein the agent is an antibody or ligand that specifically binds to the expression product of the gene or polynucleotide.
6. The method of claim 4, wherein the agent is selected from the group consisting of an antisense polynucleotide, a ribozyme and a multivalent RNA aptamer.
7. The method of claim 5, wherein the agent is selected from the group consisting of an antibody, an antibody derivative, and an antibody variant.
8. The method of claim 5, wherein the agent is a polyclonal antibody or a monoclonal antibody.
9. The method of claim 7, wherein the agent is selected from the group consisting of an antibody fragment, a humanized antibody and a chimeric antibody.
10. The method of claim 1, wherein the agent is a small molecule that modifies, blocks or augments post-translational modification the expression product of the gene or polynucleotide.
11. The method of claim 1, wherein the agent is a small molecule that modulates the activation of a precursor of the expression product of the polynucleotide or gene.
12. A method for inhibiting the formation of polycystic lesions in a subject, comprising delivering to the subject an effective amount of an agent that modulates the biological activity of a gene identified in Tables 2 through 5, thereby inhibiting the formation of polycystic lesions.
13. The method of claim 12, wherein the modulating agent is a polynucleotide that inhibits or augments the activity or expression of a CTGF polynucleotide.
14. The method of claim 12, wherein the agent is an antibody or ligand that specifically binds to the expression product of the gene or the polynucleotide.
15. The method of claim 13, wherein the agent is selected from the group consisting of an antisense polynucleotide, a ribozyme and a multivalent RNA aptamer.
16. The method of claim 14, wherein the agent is an antibody selected from the group consisting of a monoclonal antibody, an antibody derivative and an antibody variant.
17. The method of claim 14, wherein the agent is a polyclonal antibody or a monoclonal antibody.
18. The method of claim 17, wherein the agent is selected from the group consisting of an antibody fragment, a humanized antibody and a chimeric antibody.
19. The method of claim 12, wherein the agent is a small molecule that modifies, blocks, or augments post-translational modification of a polynucleotide or gene identified in Tables 2 through 5.
20. The method of claim 12, wherein the agent is a molecule that modifies the activation of a precursor of the expression product of the polynucleotide or gene identified in Tables 2 through 5.
21. A method for preventing or treating Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) in a suitable subject, comprising delivering an effective amount of an isolated molecule that modulates polycystic biological activity of a gene or its expression product identified in Tables 2 through 5, to a subject in need thereof.
22. The method of claim 21, wherein the isolated molecule is a polynucleotide that modulates the activity or expression of a CTGF
polynucleotide.
23. The method of claim 21, wherein the molecule is an antibody that specifically binds to the expression product of the gene or the polynucleotide.
24. The method of claim 22, wherein the molecule is selected from the group consisting of an antisense polynucleotide, a small molecule, a ribozyme, a multivalent RNA aptamer.
25. The method of claim 22, wherein the molecule is an antibody selected from the group consisting of an antibody, an antibody derivative and an antibody variant.
26. The method of claim 22, wherein the agent is a polyclonal antibody or a monoclonal antibody.
27. The method of claim 26, wherein the agent is selected from the group consisting of an antibody fragment, a humanized antibody and a chimeric antibody.
28. The method of claim 22, wherein the molecule is a small molecule that modifies, inhibits or augments post-translational modification of an expression product of a gene or a polynucleotide or gene identified in Tables 2 through 5.
29. The method of claim 22, wherein the molecule is a molecule that modifies the activation of a precursor of the expression product of a polynucleotide or gene identified in Tables 2 through 5.
