摘要:
The present invention relates to novel therapeutic and diagnostic dendrimers. In particular, the present invention is directed to dendrimer based compositions and systems for use in disease diagnosis and therapy (e.g., cancer diagnosis and therapy). The compositions and systems comprise one or more components for targeting, imaging, sensing, and/or providing a therapeutic or diagnostic material and monitoring the response to therapy of a cell or tissue (e.g., a tumor).
摘要:
The present invention relates to compositions comprising functionalized dendrimer-stabilized nanoparticles (DSNPs), functionalized dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles (DENPs) (e.g., metal DENPs), and methods of generating and using the same.
摘要:
The present invention provides methods and compositions for the stimulation of immune responses. In particular, the present invention provides immunogenic nanoemulsion compositions and methods of administering the same (e.g., via a heterologous prime/boost protocol (e.g., utilizing the same nanoemulsion in each the prime and boost administrations)) to induce immune responses (e.g., innate and/or adaptive immune responses (e.g., for generation of host immunity against an environmental pathogen)). Compositions and methods of the present invention find use in, among other things, clinical (e.g. therapeutic and preventative medicine (e.g., vaccination)) and research applications.

The present invention provides methods and compositions for the stimulation of immune responses. In particular, the present invention provides nanoemulsion compositions and methods of using the same for the induction of immune responses (e.g., immunologic cell death/apoptosis (e.g., for the induction of innate and/or adaptive immune responses)). Compositions and methods of the invention find use in, among other things, clinical (e.g. therapeutic and preventative medicine (e.g., for infectious disease, cancer, autoimmunity, and/or tissue injury (e.g., via alteration of host immune responses))) and research applications.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods for treating and completely curing fungal, yeast, and/or mold infections in human subjects comprising topically administering to a human subject in need thereof an antifungal nanoemulsion composition.
摘要:
The present invention relates to dendrimer synthesis. Specifically, the present invention relates to triazine scaffolds capable of click chemistry for one-step synthesis of functionalized dendrimers, and methods of making and using the same.
摘要:
The present invention relates to novel dendrimer compounds and methods of synthesizing the same. In particular, the present invention is directed to novel polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers, novel dendrimer branching units, methods for synthesizing such novel PAMAM dendrimers and functionalized dendrimers, as well as systems and methods utilizing the dendrimers (e.g., in diagnostic and/or therapeutic settings (e.g., for the delivery of therapeutics, imaging, and/or targeting agents (e.g., in disease diagnosis and/or therapy, etc.))).
摘要:
Nanoemulsion compositions with low toxicity that demonstrate broad spectrum inactivation of microorganisms or prevention of diseases are described. The nanoemulsions contain an aqueous phase, an oil phase comprising an oil and an organic solvent, and one or more surfactants. Methods of making nanoemulsions and inactivating pathogenic microorganisms are also provided.
摘要:
A system for determining whether interaction occurs between a trial substance and a target substance. The system includes a photonic crystal sensor having a photonic crystal structure and a defect member disposed adjacent the photonic crystal structure. The defect member defines an operative surface able to receive the target substance and the trial substance. The system further includes a light source that inputs a light signal to the photonic crystal structure and the defect member. The light signal is internally reflected, and a resultant output signal is outputted. The output signal relates to whether the trial substance interacts with the target substance at the operative surface. Furthermore, the system includes an identity detector that identifies the trial substance that interacts with the target substance.
