Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090148839METHOD FOR EVALUATING CELL POPULATIONS - The invention describes specific sialylated structures present on human stem cells and cell populations derived thereof. The invention is especially directed to methods to control the status of stem cells by observing changes in sialylation of the cells; and control of potential contaminations of biological materials; and reagents and methods used in connection with the cells in order to avoid alterations of the cell glycosylation by contaminating materials. The invention is further directed to novel stem cells, the glycosylation of which has been specifically altered.06-11-2009
20090162938Novel Carbohydrate Profile Compositions From Human Cells and Methods for Analysis and Modification Thereof - The invention describes methods for production of novel composition of glycans, glycomes, from human multipotent stem cells. The invention is further directed to methods for modifying the glycomes and analysis of the glycomes and the modified glycomes. Furthermore the invention is directed to stem cells carrying the modified glycomes on their surfaces.06-25-2009
20090317788Novel Carbohydrate Profile Compositions From Human Cells and Methods for Analysis and Modification Thereof - The present invention discloses a method of evaluating the status of a stem cell preparation comprising the step of detecting the presence of a glycan structure or a group of glycan structures in said preparation. The detection step can be performed by the use of a lectin specific to a glycan structure of interest.12-24-2009
20090317834NOVEL CELLULAR GLYCAN COMPOSITIONS - The invention describes novel compositions of glycans, glycomes, from human embryonic stem cells, and especially novel subcompositions of the glycomes with specific monosaccharide compositions and glycan structures. The invention is further directed to methods for modifying the glycomes and analysis of the glycomes and the modified glycomes. Furthermore, the invention is directed to stem cells carrying the modified glycomes on their surfaces. The glycomes are preferably analysed by profiling methods able to detect reproducibly and quantitatively numerous individual glycan structures at the same time. The most preferred type of the profile is a mass spectrometric profile. The invention specifically revealed novel target structures and is especially directed to the development of reagents recognizing the structures.12-24-2009
20100028913NOVEL CARBOHYDRATE FROM HUMAN CELLS AND METHODS FOR ANALYSIS AND MODIFICATION THEREOF - The invention describes reagents and methods for specific binders to glycan structures of stem cells. Furthermore the invention is directed to screening of additional binding reagents against specific glycan epitopes on the surfaces of the stem cells. The preferred binders of the glycans structures includes proteins such as enzymes, lectins and antibodies.02-04-2010
20100047892METHOD FOR MODIFYING CELLS - The invention describes specific sialylated structures present on human stem cells and cell populations derived thereof. The invention is especially directed to methods to control the status of stem cells by changing sialylation and/or fucosylation levels of the cells. The invention is further directed to novel stem cells, the glycosylation of which has been specifically altered. The control methods are preferably mass spectrometric methods.02-25-2010
20100055678Method of profiling a cell population - The present invention relates to a method of profiling a cell population comprising a step of detecting the presence or absence of at least two biological markers in said cell population, wherein at least one of said markers is a cell surface marker, which is a sialylated N-glycan marker with structure NeuNAcα3Gal, and at least one of said markers is a mRNA marker related to glycoproteins and/or glycosynthase proteins. The invention also relates to method for purification of cord blood cell population and to a complete cell population from cord blood purified by said method.03-04-2010
