20110076290 | DENDRITIC CELL VACCINES FOR ASPARAGINYL-BETA-HYDROXYLASE EXPRESSING TUMORS - A vaccine containing AAH-loaded mature dendritic cells for treatment of AAH-expressing tumors in mammalian subjects. A method of producing primed dendritic cells is carried out by contacting isolated dendritic cells with an antigen such as AAH. Following the antigen-contacting step, the dendritic cells are contacted with a combination of cytokines such as GM-CSF and IFN-γ. | 03-31-2011 |
20130095499 | Methods, compositions and kits for imaging cells and tissues using nanoparticles and spatial frequency heterodyne imaging - Methods, compositions, systems, devices and kits are provided herein for preparing and using a nanoparticle composition and spatial frequency heterodyne imaging for visualizing cells or tissues. In various embodiments, the nanoparticle composition includes at least one of: a nanoparticle, a polymer layer, and a binding agent, such that the polymer layer coats the nanoparticle and is for example a polyethylene glycol, a polyelectrolyte, an anionic polymer, or a cationic polymer, and such that the binding agent that specifically binds the cells or the tissue. Methods, compositions, systems, devices and kits are provided for identifying potential therapeutic agents in a model using the nanoparticle composition and spatial frequency heterodyne imaging. | 04-18-2013 |
20130183675 | BIOMARKERS FOR THE TREATMENT OF HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA - Provided herein are biomarkers for hepatocellular carcinoma and uses thereof. | 07-18-2013 |

20090280192 | METHOD FOR TREATING OR PREVENTING ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE - Disclosed is a method for treating or preventing Alzheimer's disease by restricting the level of metabolizable carbohydrate in the diet and/or administering to the patient an effective amount of an agent which reduces serum insulin levels. | 11-12-2009 |
20100093002 | Diagnosis and treatment of malignant neoplasms - The invention features a method of inhibiting tumor growth and/or tumor invasiveness in a mammal by administering to a mammal a compound (e.g., an antagonistic antibody) which inhibits expression or enzymatic activity of human aspartyl (asparaginyl) beta-hydroxylase (HAAH). The invention also features a method for diagnosing the growth of a malignant neoplasm (e.g., pancreatic cancer) in a mammal by contacting a tissue or bodily fluid from the mammal with an antibody which binds to a HAAH polypeptide under conditions sufficient to form an antigen-antibody complex and/or detecting the antigen-antibody complex. | 04-15-2010 |
20100136581 | DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF MALIGNANT NEOPLASMS - The invention features a method for diagnosing a malignant neoplasm in a mammal by contacting a bodily fluid from the mammal with an antibody which binds to an human aspartyl (asparaginyl) beta-hydroxylase (HAAH) polypeptide and methods of treating malignant neoplasms by inhibiting HAAH. | 06-03-2010 |
20100144837 | DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF MALIGNANT NEOPLASMS - The invention features a method for diagnosing a malignant neoplasm in a mammal by contacting a bodily fluid from the mammal with an antibody which binds to an human aspartyl (asparaginyl) beta-hydroxylase (HAAH) polypeptide and methods of treating malignant neoplasms by inhibiting HAAH. | 06-10-2010 |
20100172832 | DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF MALIGNANT NEOPLASMS - The invention features a method for diagnosing and inhibiting growth of a malignant neoplasm in a mammal by contacting a cell or a bodily fluid of the mammal with an antibody which binds to an human aspartyl (asparaginyl) beta-hydroxylase (HAAH) polypeptide. Methods of immunization to generate an HAAH-specific immune response are also within the invention. | 07-08-2010 |
20110124016 | Diagnosis and Treatment of Malignant Neoplasms - The invention features a method of inhibiting tumor growth and/or tumor invasiveness in a mammal by administering to a mammal a compound (e.g., an antagonistic antibody) which inhibits expression or enzymatic activity of human aspartyl (asparaginyl) beta-hydroxylase (HAAH). The invention also features a method for diagnosing the growth of a malignant neoplasm (e.g., pancreatic cancer) in a mammal by contacting a tissue or bodily fluid from the mammal with an antibody which binds to a HAAH polypeptide under conditions sufficient to form an antigen-antibody complex and/or detecting the antigen-antibody complex. | 05-26-2011 |
