The present invention relates to a method for detecting mycoplasma 16S rDNA 1.5 kilobase fragment amplified by quantitative PCR. One of the most critical limitation of the qPCR is the DNA fragment length to amplify. The existing qPCR methods does not permit the amplification of long DNA fragments. Here the inventors demonstrate for the first time the amplification of mycoplasma 16S rDNA 1.5 kilobase fragment using qPCR based on real- time polymerase chain reaction. In particular, the present invention relates to a method for universal detection and quantification of mycoplasma 16S rDNA 1.5 kilobase fragment in a sample comprising contacting said sample with degenerate primers amplified by quantitative PCR or qPCR and using a DNA loading probe.

The present invention relates to methods for diagnosing and treating CD1d-restricted gamma/delta T cell lymphomas. In particular, the present invention relates to a method for diagnosing a T cell lymphoma as a CD1d-restricted gamma/delta T cell lymphoma in a patient in need thereof comprising i) detecting the presence of CD1d restricted gamma/delta T lymphoma cells in a cell lymphoma sample obtained from the patient and ii) concluding that the T cell lymphoma is a CD1d-restricted gamma/delta T cell lymphoma when the presence of CD Id restricted gamma/delta T cells is detected in the sample. The present invention also relates to a method for treating a CD1d-restricted gamma/delta T cell lymphoma as diagnosed by the diagnostic method of present invention comprising administering the patient with a therapeutically effective amount of a CD1d antagonist.

The nucleosides availability is a crucial factor governing the proliferation of any living entities (viruses, bacteria, parasites or eukaryotic cells). The enzyme involved in the fourth step of the de novo pyrimidine nucleotides biosynthetic pathway, where L-dihydroorotate (DHO) is converted to orotate (ORO), is named dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH). This enzyme has been recognized as a promising target for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, cancers and infections. However, there is a still a need for identifying new synergic combinations with DHODH inhibitors. The inventors show synergistic effect of DHODH inhibitors and IDH inhibitors on the proliferation of cancer cell lines. The present invention thus relates to methods of therapy comprising administering a therapeutically effective combination comprising a DHODH inhibitor and an IDH inhibitor.

An atomic force microscope ("AFM") based interferometer, uses a light source, and a splitting optical interface, splitting the light beam into a signal light beam and a reference light beam. Both the signal and reference light beams are focused in the vicinity of an AFM cantilever. A beam displacer introduces a lateral displacement between the signal light beam and reference light beam, the lateral displacement being such that, in at least one plane between the beam displacer and the focusing lens structure, the center of the signal light beam is separated from the center of the reference light beam by more than half a sum of their beam diameters on that plane. A detector operates to determine differences in optical path length between the signal light beam and reference light beam to determine information about movement of the cantilever.

Coronaviridae is a family of enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses. The emergence of a new betacoronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has led to a major health-related crisis associated with a significant mortality in intensive care units, due to the pulmonary complications of COVID-19. The inventors showed that Vidofludimus is suitable for inhibiting replication of coronavirus and thus would be suitable for the treatment of infections mediated by said type of virus.

The disclosure relates to a method for reprogramming somatic cells from mammalian cells including human, bat and equine cells. The inventors have identified an original combination of reprogramming factors for use in methods for reprogramming somatic cells into stem cells from various species, such as bat, bovine, equine and human species. In particular, the disclosure relates to an in vitro method for preparing stem cells reprogrammed from mammalian somatic cells, said method comprising culturing mammalian somatic cells and expressing at least the following combination of reprogramming factors: (i) a reprogramming factor encoded by ESRRB gene, (ii) a reprogramming factor encoded by CDX-2 gene, and, (iii) a reprogramming factor encoded by c-MYC gene, under appropriate conditions for reprogramming said mammalian somatic cells into stem cells.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods and pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of filovirus infections. Although several antivirals have shown efficacy against Ebola virus infection in vitro or in animal models, few of them have been yet assessed in human beings with Ebola virus disease. The inventors aimed at identifying novel antivirals showing efficacy against Ebola virus infection. Gemcitabine and obatoclax were identified and their synergistic effects with favipiravir were demonstrated. In particular, the present invention relates to a method of treating a filovirus infection in a subject in need thereof comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective combination of favipiravir and Obatoclax. The present invention also relates to a method of treating a filovirus infection in a subject in need thereof comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective combination of favipiravir and gemcitabine.
