    摘要: The invention provides methods for treating inflammatory and autoimmune diseases by administering to the subject an effective amount of a cardiac glycoside, where the dose is effective to suppress or prevent initiation, progression, or relapses of the disease, including the progression of established disease. In some embodiments, the methods of the invention comprise administering to a subject determined to have rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus, or a pre-clinical disease state thereof, an effective amount of a cardiac glycoside, to suppress or prevent activity of the disease. In other embodiments, the methods of the invention comprise administering to a subject determined to have insufficient endogenous cardiac glycosides, an effective amount as a supplement to counteract the effects of cardiac glycoside deficiency.

    摘要: This invention provides a method for determining the antibody specificity profile in an individual. This specificity profile reveals the individual's immune response to multiple antigens and/or epitopes of autoantigens, allergens, graft antigens, etc. The antibody specificity profile is determined through the binding of patient samples comprising antibodies to the arrays. The array can comprises antigens and epitopes. The invention also provides the means and methods for determining antigen or epitope specificity profiles that can be used in the development of either generic and individualized diagnosis and treatment for immune related diseases, including autoimmune disease, allergy and graft rejection.

    摘要: Insect pests can be transported around the world in wooden shipping containers. To prevent the spread of wood-borne insect pests, it is necessary to kill insects within the wood. The wood is placed in a vacuum container having a flexible wall. The flexible wall presses against the wood and enables the wood to be heated by conduction. The wood and flexible wall can to be heated by contact with ambient or heated air, for example. Desiccant or dry air can be used to increase the rate of dehydration. Insects in the wood are typically killed after losing 25-50% of their body weight by dehydration. This technique will kill beetle larvae, nematodes and other invasive and destructive insects that live inside solid wood, and is particularly applicable for rendering wood acceptable for use in pallets and other containers shipped internationally.

    摘要: The present disclosure is directed to methods and compositions for treating osteoarthritis and preventing osteoarthritis, by administering a compound that modulates one or more components in the complement system. In one embodiment, a compound that inhibits a component in the complement system is administered to prevent, delay the progression of, or treat osteoarthritis. In other embodiments, compounds with specific inhibition of a component in a particular pathway in the complement system, such as the alternative, mannose binding lectin, and/or classical pathway, are administered to a subject having osteoarthritis or at risk of developing osteoarthritis.

    摘要: This invention provides a method of treating or preventing a disease in an animal associated with one or more self-protein(s), -polypeptide(s), or -peptide(s) that is present or involved in a non-physiologic process in the animal comprising administering to the animal a self-vector comprising a polynucleotide encoding the self-protein(s), -polypeptide(s) or -peptide(s) associated with the disease. Administration of the self-vector comprising a polynucleotide encoding the self-protein(s), -polypeptide(s) or -peptide(s) modulates an immune response to the self-protein(s), -polypeptide(s) or -peptide(s) expressed from administration of the self-vector. The invention also provides a composition comprising a polynucleotide encoding one or more self-protein(s), -polypeptide(s), or -peptide(s) that is present non-physiologically in a treated animal useful in treating or preventing a disease associated with the self-protein(s), -polypeptide(s), or -peptide(s) present in and/or the target of a non-physiologic process in the animal.
