Scaffold guided tissue regeneration is an emerging field in tissue engineering. 3-D porous, biodegradable scaffolds are seeded with cells which attach to the scaffold, proliferate and in the case of stem cells also differentiate. The scaffold degenerates and is absorbed to leave healthy tissue. ...

The present invention provides a unique 3D pancreatic-like model for co-culture of isolated pancreatic islets with endothelial cells on a PLLA/PLGA biodegradable polymeric scaffold. Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) is a chronic inflammatory disease in which there is autoimmune-mediated ...

Summary Applications The life-saving strategy that we propose is based on the use of blood Glu scavenging agents for the treatment acute neurodegenerative conditions in which the excess Glu present in the brain interstitial fluid is thought to trigger neuronal cell ...

Summary By measuring the changing capacitance of each molecule as it flows through a measuring device, its' exact motion path can be measured accurately with sub-micrometer spatial resolution and millisecond time-scales, rather than relying on existing methods of concluding the motion of single ...

Summary Error-free DNA synthesis from error-prone oligonucleotides. Long DNA molecules encoding novel genetic elements are in broad demand. Short oligonucleotides are used as building blocks to construct longer DNA molecules. The utility of synthetic DNA constructs in biology depends on their being ...

Summary Applications The researchers have demonstrated proof-of-principle in animal studies in vaccination using HSP60-peptide conjugates against bacteria (pneumococcus, meningococcus, salmonella) and viruses (West Nile, CMV) and are investigating the effect of tumor ...

We have invented a novel framework and methods for the optimal selection and placement of anatomical and fiducial landmarks for image-guided neurosurgery. The method computes the rigid registration transformation that minimizes the Target Registration Error, and provides an accurate estimate of ...

The Invention Based on many years of careful observation and analysis of mouse behavior, our teams, including zoologists, statisticians, and computer scientists have developed a new hi-res bioassay for preclinical testing and characterization of CNS agents, extracting key parameters of behavior via ...

Whole blood quantitative diagnostic, prognostic in vitro kit for monitoring the immune status prior to and following drug treatment Categories Anti-inflammatory drugs, metabolic diseases, Arteriosclerosis, chronic inflammation. Patent Status US & EU patent pending, PCT ...

The Invention A novel catalyst technology for the polymerization of a -olefins was developed including several families of pre-catalysts based on early transition metal complexes of amine-phenolate ligands. These pre-catalysts, when activated by various co-catalysts under mild reaction conditions, ...

Summary A novel drug delivery system for nail infections.Infections of foot and hand nails by fungi are a very common condition in millions of people. They account for about half of all nail disorders and are estimated to occur in over 10% of the population. Such infections may be difficult to ...

Summary Codanin-1 is a newly discovered protein which aids in the differentiation of red blood cells during erythropoiesis. Codanin-1 mutaions are associated with Congenital Dyserythropoietic Anemias – the discovery of this protein may aid diagnosis and treatment of this disease, as well as in the ...

B11 is effective in treating inflammatory diseases with no side effects Categories Anti-inflammatory, small molecule Development Stage In vivo results Patent Status Publication no: WO05080414A1, WO06001011A1 Highlights The B11 peptide is an epitope mimic of ...
