摘要:
The present invention provides methods for determining response to neoadjuvant therapy and metastasis-free survival in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma based upon the level of microRNA expression and optionally the presence of a protein cancer cell marker in biological samples such as formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens using in situ hybridization and optionally an immunohistochemical assay.
摘要:
A molecular imprinted tetraethoxysilane polymer device for detecting secosteroids, or metabolites thereof, and a method for using the same are provided.
摘要:
The present invention is a silanized nanoparticle composition composed of an iron core with an iron oxide shell. The disclosed nanoparticle compositions are disclosed for use in hyperthermia treatment and imaging of cancer.
摘要:
A system and method for automatic segmentation, performed by selecting a deformable model of an anatomical structure of interest imaged in a volumetric image, the deformable model formed of a plurality of polygons including vertices and edges, displaying the deformable model on a display, detecting a feature point of the anatomical structure of interest corresponding to each of the plurality of polygons and adapting the deformable model by moving each of the vertices toward the corresponding feature points until the deformable model morphs to a boundary of the anatomical structure of interest, forming a segmentation of the anatomical structure of interest.
摘要:
The invention is directed to modified T cells, methods of making and using isolated, modified T cells, and methods of using these isolated, modified T cells to address diseases and disorders. In one embodiment, this invention broadly relates to TCR-deficient T cells, isolated populations thereof, and compositions comprising the same. In another embodiment of the invention, these TCR-deficient T cells are designed to express a functional non-TCR receptor. The invention also pertains to methods of making said TCR-deficient T cells, and methods of reducing or ameliorating, or preventing or treating, diseases and disorders using said TCR-deficient T cells, populations thereof, or compositions comprising the same.
摘要:
The present invention embraces bis-acridine and bis- quinoline intercalators having a bis (4-aminophenyl) ether tether, and diglycolate salts thereof, for selectively decreasing colon cancer and glial cell proliferation and preventing or treating colon cancers and gliomas.
摘要:
The present invention embraces a transgenic mouse whose genome harbors a nucleic acid molecule encoding caveolin-1 fused in-frame with a reporter. To control expression of the Cavl-reporter, the nucleic acid molecule further includes a selectable marker expression cassette flanked by recombinase target sites in such a manner that, upon exposure to recombinase, said selectable marker expression cassette is excised from said nucleic acid molecule.
摘要:
Methods for obtaining cellulolytic microbes with high growth rates are disclosed. For example, C. thermocellum colonies with growth rates higher than 0.17 hr " 1 have been obtained by the present methods. In realizing higher growth rates, better bioprocessing efficiency can be achieved resulting in increased economy.
摘要:
The present invention is a method for preventing or treating an immune -relevant disease by modulating commensal microbiota populations via antibiotics, exogenous microbiota and/or probiotics.
