20080228165 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTRODUCING ELEMENTS INTO TISSUE - Systems, devices and methods for securing tissue including the annulus of a mitral valve. The systems, devices and methods may employ catheter based techniques and devices to plicate tissue and perform an annuloplasty. | 09-18-2008 |
20080228198 | SUTURE CUTTER AND METHOD OF CUTTING SUTURE - Suture cutters and methods of cutting suture in a surgical procedure. The suture cutter may include an actuator, an intermediate cannula portion and a movable cutting assembly. The cutting assembly may be operatively coupled to the actuator and include a cutting element. An adjustably sized cutting window receives the suture. The adjustably sized cutting window may be bound on at least one side with the cutting element for cutting the suture received inside the cutting window. Actuation moves the cutting assembly to cut the suture. | 09-18-2008 |
20080228265 | TISSUE ANCHORS, SYSTEMS AND METHODS, AND DEVICES - Systems, devices and methods for securing tissue including the annulus of a mitral valve. The systems, devices and methods may employ catheter based techniques and devices to plicate tissue and perform an annuloplasty. | 09-18-2008 |
20080228266 | PLICATION ASSISTANCE DEVICES AND METHODS - Systems, devices and methods for securing tissue including the annulus of a mitral valve. The systems, devices and methods may employ catheter based techniques and devices to plicate tissue and perform an annuloplasty. | 09-18-2008 |
20080228267 | DEVICES AND METHODS FOR INTRODUCING ELEMENTS INTO TISSUE - Systems, devices and methods for securing tissue including the annulus of a mitral valve. The systems, devices and methods may employ catheter based techniques and devices to plicate tissue and perform an annuloplasty. | 09-18-2008 |
20090076547 | TISSUE ANCHOR AND ANCHORING SYSTEM - A tissue anchor includes an anchor member formed from a generally flexible material. An activation member, which may be a tensioning member, causes proximal and distal end portions of the anchor member to move toward each other into a shortened configuration suitable for anchoring against the tissue. The tissue anchor can optionally be deployed and activated using a catheter device. | 03-19-2009 |

20090019374 | Methods and apparatus for creating, combining, distributing and reproducing program content for groups of participating users - A communications system for simulcasting audio or audiovisual program content to a plurality of participating system users via a communication network. Each user operates an access device that reproduces the received program content for the user and also accepts spoken comments from the user concurrently with or immediately following the reproduction of the program content. The spoken comments are transmitted to at least selected ones of the other users so that the selected users can engage in a conversation about the program content as it is simulcast. | 01-15-2009 |

20100183658 | Novel Compounds for Enhancing MHC Class II Therapies - The invention provides classes of novel compounds that accelerate peptide loading to DR in the absence of DM and related pharmaceutical compositions. The invention also provides conjugates of these compounds with peptides, antigens or other MHC-based therapeutics, including peptides that self-catalyze their loading onto MHC Class II molecules. Methods are provided for modulating an immune response in a subject. Also disclosed are methods of using the novel compounds, e.g., in combination with MHC-based therapeutics, for the treatment of autoimmune diseases and for the manufacture of medicaments. Methods of improving loading of viral peptides and tumor peptides for enhancing the CD4 T cell response following vaccination against viruses or tumors, and related vaccines, are also provided. | 07-22-2010 |
