| 20120015346 | INFLUENZA VIRUS DETECTION AND DIAGNOSIS - The invention discloses compositions comprising nucleic acid(s) for rapid detection, identification, differentiation, and/or diagnosis of certain Influenza virus A subtypes, e.g., H1N1, H3N2 and A(2009 H1N1)pdm, and methods of use thereof, e.g., Short-run RT-PCR, including an RT-PCR assay kit, comprising the disclosed composition(s). | 01-19-2012 |
| 20110214680 | APPROACHES TO IDENTIFY LESS HARMFUL TOBACCO AND TOBACCO PRODUCTS - Aspects of the invention concern methods for detecting, identifying and evaluating tobacco and tobacco products to determine the potential that these compositions have to contribute to a tobacco-related disease. It is based, at least in part; on the discovery that exposure of pulmonary cells to smoke or smoke condensate obtained from tobacco or tobacco products induces double stranded breaks in cellular DNA, which were efficiently detected using assays that measure the presence, absence, or amount of phosphorylation of the histone, H2AX. | 09-08-2011 |
| 20110152835 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR THE REPAIR AND/OR REGENERATION OF DAMAGED MYOCARDIUM - Methods, compositions, and kits for repairing damaged myocardium and/or myocardial cells including the administration cytokines are disclosed and claimed. Methods and compositions for the development of large arteries and vessels are also disclosed and claimed. The present application also discloses and claims methods and media for the growth, expansion, and activation of human cardiac stem cells. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110123500 | METHODS OF ISOLATING NON-SENESCENT CARDIAC STEM CELLS AND USES THEREOF - The invention describes the isolation and methods of use of a non-senescent pool of adult cardiac stem cells. In particular, a subset of adult cardiac stem cells with superior regenerative capacity is disclosed. Such cells were found to have immortal DNA. Compositions comprising the non-senescent stem cells are also described. In addition, the present invention provides methods for repairing aged myocardium or damaged myocardium using the isolated non-senescent adult cardiac stem cells. | 05-26-2011 |
| 20110091428 | COMPOSITIONS OF ADULT ORGAN STEM CELLS AND USES THEREOF - Compositions of isolated adult organ stem cells, including hematopoietic stem cells, cardiac stem cells, and kidney stem cells, are disclosed. In particular, the present invention provides c-kit positive, lineage negative adult stem cells that can be isolated from adult organ tissue. Such stem cells are capable of generating all the cell lineages of the organ tissue from which they were isolated. Methods for repairing damaged organ tissue with the isolated organ stem cells are also disclosed. | 04-21-2011 |
| 20110059537 | METHOD FOR ESTIMATING RISK OF ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY - Methods and products for identifying subjects at risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) are provided according to the invention. Included, for instance, are diagnostic kits and methods involving the use of at least two AKI associated markers. | 03-10-2011 |
| 20100173826 | Smooth Muscle Relaxation - The invention relates to methods of inducing smooth muscle relaxation, for example, a method of inducing relaxation of a vascular or a non-vascular muscle or a method of inducing relaxation of the microvasculature, in a subject in need thereof by promoting the accumulation of protoporphyrin IX in the smooth muscle. | 07-08-2010 |
