| 20110311518 | NOVEL SYNTHETIC AGONISTS OF TLR9 - The invention relates to synthetic chemical compositions that are useful for modulation of Toll-Like Receptor (TLR)-mediated immune responses. In particular, the invention relates to agonists of Toll-Like Receptor 9 (TLR9) that generate unique cytokine and chemokine profiles. | 12-22-2011 |
| 20110293565 | NOVEL SYNTHETIC AGONISTS OF TLR9 - The invention relates to synthetic chemical compositions that are useful for modulation of Toll-Like Receptor (TLR)-mediated immune responses. In particular, the invention relates to agonists of Toll-Like Receptor 9 (TLR9) that generate unique cytokine and chemokine profiles. | 12-01-2011 |
| 20110171209 | Potentiation of Autoimmune and Inflammatory Disease Treatments by Immune Regulatory Oligonucleotide (IRO) Antagonists of TLR7 and TLR9 - The invention provides the use of immune regulatory oligonucleotides (IRO) as antagonist of TLRs and potentiators of anti-inflammatory agents that inhibit TNF for the prevention and treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. | 07-14-2011 |
| 20110082186 | COMPOSITIONS FOR INHIBITING GENE EXPRESSION AND USES THEREOF - The inventors have examined the means for providing more efficacious gene expression blocking compounds. The inventors have discovered new structural features that surprisingly improve the efficacy of gene expression blocking molecules. These features include the presence of multiple 3′ ends and a linker at the 5′ ends. Surprisingly, these features improve the efficacy of the gene expression blocking compounds in a manner that decreases the compound's biologic instability. Even more surprisingly, this effect has been found to be applicable to both DNA and RNA oligonucleotide-based compounds and to have application in traditional antisense and RNAi technologies. | 04-07-2011 |
| 20110009477 | OLIGONUCLEOTIDE-BASED COMPOUNDS AS INHIBITORS OF TOLL-LIKE RECEPTORS - The invention provides novel oligonucleotide-based TLR antagonists containing a modified immune stimulatory motif and the use of such compounds in the prevention and treatment of TLR-medicated diseases. These oligonucleotide-based TLR antagonists containing a modified immune stimulatory motif have one or more chemical modifications in the immune stimulatory motif, which would be immune stimulatory but for the modification. | 01-13-2011 |
| 20100215642 | SYNTHETIC RNA-BASED AGONISTS OF TLR7 - The invention relates to the therapeutic use of novel stabilized oligoribonucleotides as immune modulatory agents for immune therapy applications. Specifically, the invention provides novel RNA-based oligoribonucleotides with improved nuclease and RNase stability and that selectively induce immune modulatory activity through TLR7. | 08-26-2010 |
