20130195840 | THERAPEUTICS AND PROCESSES FOR TREATMENT OF IMMUNE DISORDERS - Processes of diagnosing or treating an autoimmune abnormality are provided whereby the presence of IgA anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) in a subject are detected correlating with both presence and severity of disease such as Wegener's granulomatosis (WG). The FCAR genotype predicts whether IgA ANCA will be stimulatory or inhibitory of neutrophil activation such that in subjects with an inhibitory genotype, IgA ANCA will act as an inhibitor of disease severity, and in subjects with a proinflammatory genotype, IgA ANCA will increase disease severity as observed by increased prevalence of renal disease in WG. Thus, individualized medical treatment is possible based on determination of the presence of IgA ANCA and FCAR genotype. | 08-01-2013 |

20110268753 | PROCESS FOR REGULATING IMMUNE RESPONSE - The discovery of FcγRIIc expression on B-cells allows several new methods of prediction or regulation of immune responses. A process of altering an immune response in a subject is provided by altering the expression level or activity of FcγRIIc on a cell. The relative ratio of activating FcγRIIc to inhibitory FcγRIIb levels in an immune cell allows prediction of the presence or absence of immune disease or abnormality such as rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus. Inventive processes are provided whereby the relative levels of activating to inhibitory receptor expression in a subject is compared to an established inventive classification system to predict an immune response to a therapeutic, the presence or absence of disease, or the magnitude, duration, or timing of an immune response in the subject. | 11-03-2011 |

20080213804 | Parallel Processing Fluidic Method and Apparatus for Automated Rapid Immunohistochemistry - A sample processing system that may be configured to achieve parallel or coincidental sample processing such as histochemical processing may involve a plurality of samples arranged for coincidental movement perhaps by use of angular microscopic slide movements to cause processing activity that may include repeated elimination and reapplication of a fluidic substance perhaps through the action of capillary motion in order to refresh a microenvironment adjacent to a sample such as a biopsy or other such sample. Snap in antibody and other substances may be included to ease operator actions and to permit location specific substance applications perhaps by including single container multiple chamber multiple fluidic substance magazines, linearly disposed multiple substance source, and primary antibody cartridges. Through refreshing of a microenvironment, depletion of the microenvironment is avoided and the time necessary for slide processing may be dramatically shortened from a more common 60 to 120 minutes to perhaps less than 15 minutes so as to permit use of such a system in an intraoperative or surgical environment such as recommended by the College of American Pathologists intraoperative guidelines or the like. Patients may thus avoid a need to be subjected to an additional surgical procedure when lab results become available to see if tumors or the like were fully removed in a prior procedure. | 09-04-2008 |
