Compositions, methods and compounds useful for enhancing the uptake of a lipid particle b\ a cell are described In particular embodiments, the methods of the invention include contacting a cell with a lipid particle and a compound that binds a Na+/K+ ATPase to enhance uptake of the lipid particle b\ the cell Related compositions useful in practicing methods include lipid particles comprising a conjugated compound that enhances uptake of the lipid particles b\ the cell The methods and compositions are useful in delivering a therapeutic agent to a cell, e g for the treatment of a disease or disorder in a subject
Provided herein is a vaccine that combines a vaccine facilitator and a DNA construct encoding an antigen to elicit antigen-specific antibody responses, wherein the vaccine facilitator is a Na/K pump inhibitor. Cellular entry of the DNA is accelerated as compared to other vaccines that do not contain the vaccine facilitator.

Disclosed herein are methods for identifying compounds that enhance base excision repair, as well as compounds identified thereby and methods of using such compounds in the interception of malignancy, i.e. the prevention of progression of a disease from a state of susceptibility to active disease. Exemplified compounds are acetohexamide and related compounds, as well as benserazide and analogs thereof. Exemplified malignancies are those of human breast cells carrying mutations, in particular, SUM149 cells and HCC1937 cells, which cells carry BRCA1 mutations.
This invention provides lipid-linked prodrugs having structures as set out herein. Uses of such lipid-linked prodrug compounds for treatment of various indications, and methods for making and using lipid-linked prodrugs are also provided.
Small molecule arrays, particularly small molecule microarrays, and methods of identifying a small molecule based on observing the effect of a small molecule on an observable characteristic of a biological sample or test element, such as a cell, protein, cell lysate, tissue slice or small organism.
