| 20120087950 | FUNCTIONALIZED CALCIUM PHOSPHATE ARTIFICIAL BONE AND JOINT COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF USE AND MANUFACTURE - The present invention provides a functionalized composition and resulting functionalized body or prosthesis for in vitro and in vivo use comprising at least one calcium phosphate containing phase that is functionalized with a linker group comprising at least one of an organic acid molecule, a phosphonic acid, an amine, N,N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and 3-maleimidopropionic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester, and combinations thereof, and one or more of a chemical and/or a biologically active moieties, wherein the linker group provides for a reactive location for the attachment of the chemical or biologically active moiety, or both, to the calcium phosphate containing phase, and optionally including an unmodified and/or modified calcium aluminate containing phase. The functionalized compositions have a pliable physical property when mixed with water and adhere to natural bone and subsequently harden at ambient temperatures. Methods of manufacturing a functionalized artificial prosthesis that may be used as artificial bones, joints, in-vitro support structures, and in-vivo support structures for cells, tissues, organs, and nerve growth and regeneration are disclosed. Methods of repairing a bone, vertebrae, or tissue structures using the functionalized compositions are provided. | 04-12-2012 |

| 20080253963 | Tumor markers in ovarian cancer - The present invention features methods of diagnosing and prognosticating ovarian tumors by detecting increased expression of an ovarian tumor marker gene in a subject or in a sample from a subject. Also featured are kits for the aforementioned diagnostic and prognostic methods. In addition, the invention features methods of treating and preventing ovarian tumors, and methods of inhibiting the growth or metastasis of ovarian tumors, by modulating the production or activity of an ovarian tumor marker polypeptide. Further featured are methods of inhibiting the growth or metastasis of an ovarian tumor by contacting an ovarian tumor cell with an antibody that specifically binds an ovarian tumor marker polypeptide. | 10-16-2008 |
