| 20120122830 | PREGNENOLONE SULFATE FOR THE TREATMENT OF NEUROLOGIC DISORDERS - The disclosure relates, in part, to methods of using pregnenolone sulfate (PREGS) to protect against the neurotoxicity of the β-amyloid peptide Aβ | 05-17-2012 |
| 20120114616 | OLFACTORY STEM CELLS AND USES THEREOF - Some aspects of this invention are based, at least in part, on the discoveries (i) pluripotent stem cell populations can be obtained from olfactory mucosa, (ii) that various regions of the olfactory mucosa contain pluripotent stem cells, (iii) that cells from these olfactory mucosa derived stem cell populations can be maintained in cultures containing EGF and/or bFGF, (iv) that cells from these olfactory mucosa derived stem cell populations are able to form neurospheres, and/or (v) that cells from these olfactory mucosa derived stem cell populations can differentiate into various lineages, including mesenchymal and neuronal lineages. | 05-10-2012 |
| 20110166042 | Methods for Producing Inducible and/or Repressible Expression Active Linear RNA Interference Cassettes and Inducible and/or Repressible Expression Active Linear Gene Cassettes and Their Uses - The present invention relates to a (first) method for producing inducible and/or repressible expression active linear RNA interference constructs comprising a PCR amplification of a source polynucleotide comprising the inhibitory RNA coding sequence of interest or comprising a PCR amplification of a DNA source comprising a promoter using a reverse primer comprising the inhibitory RNA coding sequence of interest. The present invention furthermore relates to a (second) method for producing inducible and/or repressible expression active linear gene constructs comprising a PCR amplification of a source expression polynucleotide comprising a promoter sequence and the DNA sequence of interest or comprising a PCR amplification using the DNA sequence as a template. The present invention furthermore relates to libraries, arrays, cells and cell lines and kits utilizing the inducible and/or repressible expression active linear RNA interference constructs or the inducible and/or repressible expression active linear gene constructs. | 07-07-2011 |
