| 20120107845 | Disrupting FCRN-Albumin Interactions - Provided herein are, inter alia, methods for identifying a candidate compound for treating the toxic effects of compounds or molecules that bind to albumin in a subject. The methods include identifying test compounds that inhibit the binding between FcRn and albumin. | 05-03-2012 |
| 20110280887 | METHODS FOR DIAGNOSIS OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE - This invention pertains to methods and compositions for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular conditions. More specifically, the invention relates to isolated molecules that can be used to diagnose and/or treat cardiovascular conditions including cardiac hypertrophy, myocardial infarction, stroke, arteriosclerosis, and heart failure. | 11-17-2011 |
| 20110250703 | IL1RL-1 AS A CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE MARKER AND THERAPEUTIC TARGET - This invention pertains to methods and compositions for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular conditions. More specifically, the invention relates to isolated molecules that can be used to diagnose and/or treat cardiovascular conditions including cardiac hypertrophy, myocardial infarction, stroke, arteriosclerosis, and heart failure. | 10-13-2011 |
| 20100322959 | IMMUNOGENIC COMPOSITION - The present application relates to immunogenic compositions comprising staphylococcal PNAG which is less than 40% N-acetylated and is conjugated to a carrier protein by a linker bonded to an amine group on PNAG to form a PNAG conjugate. Methods of using and processes to make an immunogenic composition are also described. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20100196898 | DISEASE-ASSOCIATED GENETIC VARIATIONS AND METHODS FOR OBTAINING AND USING SAME - The invention provides a comprehensive, rapid, unbiased, and accurate method for identifying and/or discovering disease-associated genetic variations, e.g., disease-associated variations. The present invention further provides novel disease-associated genetic variations for use as genetic markers of disease, e.g., cancer. The invention further provides methods for assessing an individual's risk for developing a disease, e.g., cancer, by detecting the presence the novel disease-associated genetic variations of the invention. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20080299540 | Hormone responsive tissue culture system and uses thereof - The invention provides tissue culture system for primary cells (e.g. normal mammalian primary epithelial progenitors). This system includes: a) a serum-free, chemically defined cell culture media; and, b) methods for isolation and in vitro long-term propagation of primary cells (e.g. primary epithelial cells). Primary cells so isolated and cultured can be kept undifferentiated and proliferate for many weeks (>15 weeks) or population doubling (>35 PD) without senescence, or any detectable genetic alterations. Upon changing media/culture conditions, these cells can be induced to differentiate. | 12-04-2008 |
