| 20120135919 | POLYMER-DRUG CONJUGATES - A conjugate that includes a drug covalently linked to a polymer. Upon administration, the conjugate is digested by an enzyme that is present at the site of administration thereby releasing a therapeutic agent. The conjugate may demonstrate substantially the same pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic behavior as the drug itself. A material for controllably releasing a conjugate in response to the local concentration of a molecular indicator. The material includes a plurality of conjugates and a plurality of multivalent cross-linking agents. The polymers of the conjugates include an analog of the indicator within their covalent structure. The multivalent cross-linking agents include cross-link receptors that interact with the indicator analog and thereby cross-link the conjugates. These non-covalent interactions are competitively disrupted when an amount of the molecular indicator is present thereby causing the material to release the conjugate in a manner that is dependent on the local concentration of indicator. | 05-31-2012 |
| 20100130726 | METHODS FOR REDUCING THE MITOGENICITY OF LECTIN COMPOSITIONS - Methods for reducing the T-cell mitogenicity of lectin compositions are provided. In one aspect this is achieved by chemically modifying mitogenic lectin compositions under optimized conditions. Additionally or alternatively, the reduction in T-cell mitogenicity is achieved by removing unmodified subunits chemically modified mixtures. Modified lectin compositions with reduced T-cell mitogenicity are also provided as are uses of the inventive compositions. | 05-27-2010 |
