20090221481STIMULATORY AUTO-ANTIBODIES TO THE PDGF RECEPTORS AS PATHOLOGY MARKER AND THERAPEUTIC TARGET - An in vitro method for detecting the presence in a body sample of auto-antibodies for the PDGF receptor suitable for the diagnosis and prognosis of autoimmune diseases, in particular the systemic sclero-is and related diagnostic kits. Use of an inhibitor of ROS and/or Ras-ERK1/2 for the preparation of a medicament for therapeutic treatment of autoimmune diseases or of treating the Graft-Versus-Host-Reaction (GVHR). Pharmaceutical composition comprising an effective amount of an inhibitor of ROS and/or Ras-ERK1/2, and proper diluents, and/or excipients, and/or adjuvants.09-03-2009
20090270268Methods for Obtaining Immortalized Antibody Secreting Cells - The present Invention provides novel methods for immortalizing cells that secrete antibodies of one or more specific isotypes. Polyclonal, oligoclonal, and monoclonal populations of cells obtained using the methods of the Invention can be screened on the basis of the functional and/or binding activities of the antibodies they secrete, for example directed to antigens of human or viral origin having medical interest, in cell culture conditions. Using these methods, human B cells that secrete antibodies binding human Cytomegalovirus, Herpes Simplex Virus, or HSP60 protein have been efficiently immortalized with Epstein-Barr virus.10-29-2009
20100040602Antibodies against Human Cytimegalovirus (HCMV) - The present invention provides novel antibody sequences that bind human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) and neutralize hCMV infection. The novel sequences can be used for the medical management of hCMV infections, in particular for preparing pharmaceutical compositions to be used in the prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of hCMV infections.02-18-2010
20100284916Antibodies Against Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) - The present invention provides novel antibody sequences that bind human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) and neutralize hCMV infection. The novel sequences can be used for the medical management of hCMV infections, in particular for preparing pharmaceutical compositions to be used in the prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of hCMV infections.11-11-2010

20100159497Binned Micro-Vessel Density Methods and Apparatus - In one aspect, a method of obtaining micro-vessel density (MVD) measurements from an image of biological vasculature containing a plurality of vessels is provided. The method comprises acts of analyzing a region of interest of the image for each of a plurality of bins, each of the plurality of bins associated with a predetermined range of vessel sizes, the act of analyzing the region of interest including determining which of the plurality of bins that portions of any vessel subject matter identified in the region of interest belong based on a size associated with the respective portions of the vessel subject matter, and associating each portion of the vessel subject matter with the corresponding one of the plurality of bins to which the portion belongs, and computing at least one measurement for each of the plurality of bins, the at least one measurement related to the MVD of the portions of vessel subject matter associated with the respective bin.06-24-2010
