Therapeutics for Neurodegenerative Disorders and Cancer Using Lenalidomide Analogs

Abstract: Inflammatory processes associated with the over-production of tumor necrosis-alpha (TNF-alpha), a potent activator of the immune system accompany numerous neurodegenerative diseases. TNF-alpha has been validated as a drug target with the development of the inhibitors Enbrel and Remicade (fusion antibodies) as prescription medications. Both,...

New Insect Sf9-ET Cell Line for Determining Baculovirus Titers

Abstract: The baculovirus-based protein expression system has gained increased prominence as a method for expressing recombinant proteins that are used in a wide range of biomedical applications. An important step in the use of this system is the ability to determine the virus infectious titer, i.e., the number of active baculovirus particles produced...

Murine metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell lines

Abstract: Researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) have developed orthotopic allograft models for pancreatic cancer that utilize low passage primary pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells or tumor fragments implanted into the cancer-free pancreata of recipient syngeneic immunocompetent mice. Tumor development in these models is more synchronized,...

Fatty Acid Derivatives and Their Use for the Treatment and Prevention of Autoimmune, Inflammatory, and Pain Disorders

Abstract: The discovery and selection of suitable compounds for the treatment and prevention of autoimmune, inflammatory, and pain disorders is a significant challenge. Researchers at National Institute of Aging (NIA) mitigated this issue. They discovered and synthesized numerous novel fatty acid derivatives (novel small molecules) that may ameliorate...

CytoSig: A Software Platform for Predicting Cytokine Signaling Activities, Target Discovery, and Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) from Transcriptomic Profiles

Abstract: Cytokines are a broad category of intercellular signaling proteins that are critical for intercellular communication in human health and disease. However, systematic profiling of cytokine signaling activities has remained challenging due to the short half-lives of cytokines, and the pleiotropic functions and redundancy of cytokine activities...

Nucleic Acid Nanoparticles (NANP) and Methods of Using Same for Controlled Immunomodulation

Abstract: The technology is directed to compositions and methods of designing nucleic acid nanoparticles (NANPs) composed entirely of DNA, RNA, or DNA and RNA to achieve desirable immunostimulation and decrease undesirable effects on the immune system by changing the composition of the NANP. Benefits of the invention include the desirable activation...

NSAIDs that Assist the Treatment of Human Diseases

Abstract: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have long been used to treat a variety of inflammatory conditions. Many of these conditions, such as cancer or arthritis, require long term use of the NSAIDs due to the chronic nature of the disease. However, the NSAIDs in current use have toxicities associated with their long-term use that...

Methods for Using Modulators of Extracellular Adenosine or an Adenosine Receptor To Enhance Immune Response and Inflammation

Local inflammation processes are crucially important in the host defense against pathogens and for successful immunization because proinflammatory cytokines are necessary for initiation and propagation of an immune response. However, normal inflammatory responses are eventually terminated by physiological termination mechanisms, thereby limiting the...

Reducing Bloodstream Neutrophils as a Treatment for Lung Infection and Inflammation

During lung infection, bloodstream neutrophils (PMNs) responding to infection travel to the airspace lumen. Although successful arrival of microbicidal PMNs to the airspace is essential for host defense against inhaled pathogens, excessive accumulation of PMNs in the lung contributes to the pathogenesis of several prevalent lung disorders, including...

Methods for Amelioration and Treatment of Pathogen-associated Inflammatory Response

This CDC invention provides methods for preventing or treating inflammatory response-linked, infection induced pathologies, which are mediated by endogenous substance P. Substance P is a naturally-occurring and major pro-inflammatory neuromediator or neuromodulator, and elevated levels of substance P have been implicated in numerous inflammation-associated...
