摘要:
The present invention provides methods, systems, and kits for evaluating multiple sclerosis (MS) in a patient. Particularly, the invention provides convenient miRNA-based tests for evaluating a patient for MS, including for diagnosing MS, for excluding MS as a diagnosis, for determining the presence of disease activity associated with MS, and for monitoring the course of disease or efficacy of treatment for MS.
摘要:
This invention relates to plasmid constructs useful for nonviral human gene therapy. The plasmid constructs incorporate plasmid elements for achieving high copy number, avoiding plasmid instability an providing a plasmid selection process. These constructs can be used to deliver nucleic acids to cells in vehicles which are compatible with human therapeutic use.
摘要:
Vectors which establish controlled expression of recombinant GHRH genes within tissues at certain levels. The vector includes a 5′ flanking region which includes necessary sequences for expression of a nucleic acid cassette, a 3′ flanking region including a 3′UTR and/or 3′NCR, and a linker which connects the 5′ flanking region to a nucleic acid sequence. The linker has a position for inserting a nucleic acid cassette. The linker does not contain the coding sequence of a gene that the linker is naturally associated with. The 3′ flanking region is 3′ to the position for inserting the nucleic acid cassette.
