20160033489 | Haptenes and Conjugates Derived from Pyocyanin, Antibodies Thereof, and Immunichemical Method for Detecting Infections Caused by Pseudomonas Aeruginosa - The present invention relates to a compound of general formula I and to the use thereof as a hapten. | 02-04-2016 |
20140342982 | GENE THERAPY COMPOSITION FOR USE IN DIABETES TREATMENT - New gene therapy constructions and compositions are the subject of present invention. The gene therapy compositions consist in adeno-associated vectors which jointly express insulin (Ins) and glucokinase (Gck) genes. The new gene therapy constructions are useful for treatment of diabetes either in dogs or human beings. | 11-20-2014 |
20140045923 | GENE THERAPY COMPOSITIONS FOR PREVENTING AND/OR TREATING OF AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES - Gene therapy compositions for the prevention and/or treatment of autoimmune diseases. The present invention relates to vectors, preferably plasmids that comprise specific promoters, that encode insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) or a functional biological equivalent thereof, which will be used to prevent or treat Type 1 Diabetes (DT1) and/or other autoimmune diseases. Moreover, the invention comprises the method of preventing or treating DT1 by means of the expression of IGF-I, or a functional biological equivalent thereof, in hepatic cells. IGF-I was capable of interrupting the immune attack against pancreatic β cells, thereby preventing the loss of β cell mass and, consequently, maintaining normal levels of circulating insulin. | 02-13-2014 |
20130224737 | Method For Determining The Production Of Reactive Oxygen Species In A Cellular Population - The invention relates to a method for determining the production of reactive oxygen species in a cellular population. The invention also relates to a method for determining the need for an antioxidant treatment of a male subject, and to a method for identifying a substance that can reduce the reactive oxygen species in a cellular population. | 08-29-2013 |
20130158104 | VECTORS AND SEQUENCES FOR THE TREATMENT OF DISEASES - The present invention provides new sequences, gene constructions, vectors and pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of diseases and specially, for the treatment of mucopolysaccharidoses. | 06-20-2013 |
20110035157 | BIOMASS CONCENTRATION MEASUREMENT DEVICE AND METHOD AND USE OF AN ELECTRONIC CHIP ELEMENT FOR MEASURING SAID BIOMASS CONCENTRATION - The invention relates to devices and methods for measuring a concentration of a biomass suspended in a medium. Embodiments of the device include a substrate capable of being immersed in the medium, at least two electrodes integrated in the substrate, and a processing and control circuit electromagnetically coupled to the at least two electrodes. The processing and control circuit is configured to apply an electrical potential to the at least two electrodes, the applied electrical potential generating a stationary electric charge that leads to the appearance of an electrical double layer on a surface of one of the at least two electrodes and that causes a biomass electrostatic adhesion on the surface, measure a change in capacitance of the electrical double layer in response to the biomass electrostatic adhesion, and determine the concentration of the biomass using a calibration curve that correlates the change in capacitance with the concentration. | 02-10-2011 |
