    摘要: Disclosed is a method for diagnosing a neurodegenerative disease in a subject. The method comprises obtaining from the subject a sample comprising at least one live blood cell, and optionally isolating at least one live blood cell from the sample. The method further comprises generating one or more multispectral or hyperspectral images of the at least one cell, and analysing spectral characteristics of autofluorescence from the at least one cell. Also disclosed is a system configured to aid in the detection or diagnosis of a neurodegenerative disease. Also disclosed is a method for selecting a subject for treatment for a neurodegenerative disease. Also disclosed is a method for monitoring the response of a subject to a therapeutic treatment for a neurodegenerative disease. Also disclosed is a protocol for monitoring the efficacy of a therapeutic treatment for a neurodegenerative disease.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a method of treating or preventing a neurological condition mediated by a tau-dependent signalling complex in neurons of a subject, comprising treating the subject to: (a) promote phosphorylation of one or more amino acids residues of tau, wherein the phosphorylation of the amino acid residues causes disruption of the tau-dependent signalling complex in neurons of the subject; or (b) introduce a variant of tau that causes disruption of the tau-dependent signalling complex in neurons of the subject. The invention also relates to vectors, compositions and kits for treating or preventing a neurological condition mediated by a tau-dependent signalling complex in neurons of a subject.

    摘要: A method for gene shuffling to form a mutant or chimeric gene, the method comprising: (a) assigning one or more segments of one or more genes based on regions of encoded amino acid sequence; (b) amplifying the one or more assigned segments of the gene using primers specific for each segment; and (c) causing recombination of the one or more amplified segments to form a mutant or chimeric gene. An oligonucleotide primer suitable for use in gene shuffling, the primer having a non-degenerate core based on a segment or template of a gene to be amplified, and the core being flanked by both 5′ and 3′ degenerate ends.

    摘要: A continuous wave Raman laser for producing visible laser output comprising: a resonator cavity; at least a first reflector and a second reflector said first and second reflectors being located at opposite ends of the resonator cavity; a laser gain medium located in the resonator cavity for generating a continuous wave fundamental beam which resonates within the resonator cavity when pumped by a pump beam from a pump source external to the resonator cavity; a solid Raman-active medium positioned in the resonator cavity for Raman shifting the fundamental beam to produce a continuous wave Raman beam which resonates within the resonator cavity; and a non-linear medium positioned in the resonator cavity for frequency converting the continuous wave Raman beam to a converted wavelength to produce a continuous wave converted beam.
