20100035373Method for manufacturing a sensor device with a stress relief layer - A method for packaging a sensor device having a sensitive structure integrated on a semiconductor chip is provided. When molding the device package, an inward extending section of the mold maintains an access opening to the sensor. A buffer layer is arranged on the chip between the inward extending section and the sensitive structure. The buffer layer protects the sensitive structure from damage by the inward extending section and acts as a seal while casting the housing. The buffer layer also covers at least part of the semiconductor electronic components of the circuitry integrated onto the chip. By covering these components, mechanical stress, as it is e.g. caused by different thermal expansion coefficients of the packaging and the chip, can be reduced.02-11-2010

20080234194GROWTH FACTOR MEDIATED COSMECEUTICALS AND USE THEREOF TO ENHANCE SKIN QUALITY - It has been discovered that vascular endothelial growth factor (“VEGF”) promotes migration of activated (but not differentiating) keratinocytes to skin. This growth factor specifically increases migration of keratinocytes of the “wounded skin” phenotype but does not have significant effects upon differentiated keratinocytes. It also increases collagen deposition and reduces wrinkles, enhances skin quality, and increases skin thickness to normal levels in individuals where skin has thinned due to age or disorder such as diabetes. It is particularly well suited for use as cosmeceuticals when applied in purified form and in known amounts. The data presented in the examples demonstrate efficacy and specificity of VEGF in enhancing migration of normal human keratinocytes as well as formation of new granulation tissue including collagen formation. VEGF induces keratinocyte and fibroblast migration, formation of new tissue, and not only induces deposition of collagen but improves alignment of the collagen fibers. Accordingly, this growth factor is highly suitable for use as a cosmeceutical, especially for skin resurfacing and reduction in wrinkles.09-25-2008
20080274079De novo synthesis of glucocorticoids in the epidermis and its uses and applications - The present invention relates to methods and compositions that control, i.e., antagonize/inhibit or agonize/stimulate, de novo glucocorticoid production in the skin. Such methods and compositions can be used for the prevention and/or treatment of a variety of skin conditions, including inflammation, acute wounds, chronic non-healing wounds, keloid, fibrotic or hypertrophic scars, and epithelial-derived cancer.11-06-2008
20090191156GM-CSF COSMECEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF - It has been discovered that granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (“GM-CSF”) promotes migration of activated (but not differentiating) keratinocytes to wound sites. It was also discovered that GM-CSF increases the quantity and improves the quality of collagen. This growth factor specifically increases migration of keratinocytes of the “wound” phenotype but does not have significant effects upon differentiated keratinocytes. Examples demonstrate reversal of skin impairment in multiple animal models of diabetic skin imparment when provided in an effective amount over an effective time period. The examples also demonstrate the efficacy of the formulations in cosmetic applications. A preferred formulation is a sustained release formulation that delivers sufficient growth factor to the skin and the underlying tissue thereof to increase the rate of keratinocyte migration, as well as collagen deposition and fibroblast proliferation, in the skin to promote rejuvenation of skin injuries resistant to repair due to underlying disease, such as diabetes, or aging.07-30-2009
20090203006BIOLOGICAL MARKERS OF CHRONIC WOUND TISSUE AND METHODS OF USING FOR CRITERIA IN SURGICAL DEBRIDEMENT - The present invention relates to methods for identifying tissue sites in a chronic wound that are suitable for debridement and whether debridement procedure has been successful using particular biological markers of the cells within the tissue sites of the chronic wounds.08-13-2009

20110190372COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR TREATING INFLAMMATORY DISORDERS - Compositions and methods for antagonizing miRNAs that are overexpressed in chronic, non-healing wounds, as compared to healthy tissue, are disclosed. The miRNA antagonists are oligonucleotides that hybridize to selected pre-miRNA or mature miRNAs and prevent the miRNAs from binding to and downregulating their target mRNAs. Methods of using the miRNA antagonists to treat inflammatory disorders, including to promote healing of chronic, non-healing wounds and acute wounds are provided.08-04-2011

20110313010COMBINATION OF LOCAL TEMOZOLOMIDE WITH LOCAL BCNU - The additive effect of combined intracranial carmustine (“BCNU”) with intracranial temozolomide (“TMZ”), and particularly in combination with radiation (“XRT”), in the treatment of two rat intracranial glioma models, the 9L gliosarcoma and the F98 glioma, demonstrates that local delivery of both drugs, especially in combination with radiation, is far more effective than delivery of either drug alone or one systemically and one locally, either with or without radiation. The triple therapy showed a significant improvement in survival when compared to controls (p=0.0004), local BCNU (p=0.0043), oral TMZ (p=0.0026), local TMZ (p=0.0105), and the combinations of either BCNU and XRT (p=0.0378) or oral TMZ and local BCNU (p=0.0154).12-22-2011

20120121510LOCALIZED THERAPY FOLLOWING BREAST CANCER SURGERY - Particles providing prolonged release of chemotherapy are injected or implanted into surgical sites in the breast following removal of cancerous tissue. In one embodiment, the particles are designed to not release formulation for approximately two to three weeks after surgery so as to not inhibit healing; in another embodiment particles are not administered until two to three weeks after surgery, and release immediately. The particles then release an effective amount of a chemotherapeutic such as a taxane to inhibit proliferation of any remaining cancer cells at or near the surgical site. This may also help prevent overproliferation leading to scarring with the surgical region.05-17-2012
