Protein And Gene Biomarkers For Rejection Of Organ Transplants

US Patent:
2013014, Jun 6, 2013
Filed:
Mar 25, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/635667
Inventors:
Minnie M. Sarwal - Portola Valley CA, US
Tara Sigdel - Palo Alto CA, US
Amit Kaushal - Los Altos CA, US
Li Li - Fremont CA, US
Wenzhong Xiao - San Jose CA, US
Atul J. Butte - Menlo Park CA, US
Purvesh Khatri - Stanford CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
G01N 33/68, C12Q 1/68
US Classification:
506 9, 506 12
Abstract:
Aspects of the present invention include methods for determining a transplant category of a subject having a transplant. Common mechanisms of rejection injury are uncovered across different tissue transplants, and provide a means to understand rational drug design. Various sources of tissues are examined form the patient for understanding AR mechanism (graft biopsy), as well as monitoring by minimal invasive means (blood) or non-invasive means (urine for the kidney allograft). For biomarker discovery different categories of markers are examined such as genes, proteins, peptides and antibodies. These biomarkers can help determine the subject's transplant category (e.g., acute allograft rejection (AR), stable allograft (STA), BK viremia, BK nephritis, drug toxicity or chronic allograft injury (CAI), and the like). Also provided are compositions, systems, kits and computer program products that find use in practicing the subject methods. The methods and compositions find use in a variety of applications.

Li Li - Fremont CA, US
International Classification:
C40B 30/04, G01N 33/566, C12Q 1/68, G01N 33/573
US Classification:
506 9, 436501, 435 618, 435 616, 435 617, 435 61, 435 612, 435 71
Abstract:
Methods are provided for determining whether a subject has a graft tolerant phenotype. In practicing the subject methods, the expression of at least 5 genes in a sample from the subject, e.g., a blood sample, is assayed to obtain a gene expression result for the at least 5 genes. The obtained gene expression result for the at least 5 genes is then employed to determine whether the subject has a graft tolerant phenotype. Also provided are compositions, systems and kits that find use in practicing the subject methods. The methods and compositions find use in a variety of applications, including the determination of an immunosuppressive therapy regimen.

Filed:
Feb 16, 2010
Appl. No.:
13/201838
Inventors:
Minnie M. Sarwal - Portola Valley CA, US
Atul J. Butte - Stanford CA, US
International Classification:
C40B 30/04, G01N 33/567, C12Q 1/68
US Classification:
506 9, 435 612, 435 721
Abstract:
Methods and composition are provided for diagnosing or predicting the status or the outcome of a graft transplant. In some embodiments, the presence or absence of one or more proteins recognizing a non-HLA/non ABO antigen is determined. The obtained result is then employed to diagnose or predict the status or outcome of the graft transplant. Also provided are compositions, systems and kits that find use in practicing the subject methods.

Methods For Monitoring Allograft Rejection

US Patent:
2012016, Jun 28, 2012
Filed:
Feb 12, 2010
Appl. No.:
13/148458
Inventors:
Atul J. Butte - Stanford CA, US
Rong Chen - Fremont CA, US
Minnie M. Sarwal - Portola Valley CA, US
Tara Sigdel - Palo Alto CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
G01N 33/566, C40B 30/04
US Classification:
506 9, 435 792, 435 71, 435 721
Abstract:
Methods are provided for monitoring an allograft recipient for a rejection response, e.g., to predict, to diagnose, and/or to characterize a rejection response. In practicing the subject methods, the level of at least one protein in a sample from the allograft recipient, e.g., serum, urine, blood, CSF, tears or saliva, is evaluated, to monitor the subject. Also provided are compositions, systems, and kits that find use in practicing the subject methods.

Biomarkers For The Diagnosis Of Kidney Graft Rejection

US Patent:
2012028, Nov 8, 2012
Filed:
Nov 24, 2010
Appl. No.:
13/508013
Inventors:
Minnie M. Sarwal - Portola Valley CA, US
Bruce Xuefeng Ling - Palo alto CA, US
Tara Sigdel - Palo Alto CA, US
James Schilling - San Mateo CA, US
International Classification:
G01N 27/72, C40B 30/04, C40B 40/06, C12Q 1/68
US Classification:
506 9, 435 612, 436 86, 506 16
Abstract:
Methods are provided for determining a transplant category of a subject having a kidney graft. In practicing one aspect of the subject methods, the peptide signature of a non-invasive sample derived from the transplant subject (e.g., a urine sample) is used to determine the subject's transplant category (e.g., acute allograft rejection (AR), stable allograft (STA), BK virus nephropathy (BK), and the like). In other embodiments, a gene expression signature from a biopsy sample from the subject (e.g., mRNA level) is used to determine the subject's transplant category. In certain embodiments both a peptide signature and a gene expression signature are used. Also provided are compositions, systems, kits and computer program products that find use in practicing the subject methods.

Inventors:
Minnie M. Sarwal - Portola Valley CA, US
Li Li - Fremont CA, US
Samuel Strober - Stanford CA, US
International Classification:
C40B 30/04, C40B 40/06, C40B 40/10, C12Q 1/68

Antibody Biomarkers For Diabetes

US Patent:
2014005, Feb 20, 2014
Filed:
Apr 6, 2012
Appl. No.:
14/001825
Inventors:
Minnie M. Sarwal - Portola Valley CA, US
Tara Sigdel - Palo Alto CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junio University - Palo Alto
International Classification:
G01N 33/68
US Classification:
506 9, 436501, 435 792, 506 18
Abstract:
Methods are provided for determining whether a subject has a diabetes phenotype. In practicing the subject methods, a sample, e.g., a blood sample, from a subject is analyzed for the presence of one or more autoantibodies to obtain an antibody signature. The obtained antibody signature is then employed to determine whether the subject has a diabetes phenotype. The subject methods may be used in diagnostic or prognostic applications, e.g., determining whether the subject has diabetes (e.g., T1D or T2D), or monitoring a subject with diabetes to determine whether the subject has or will develop ESRD. Also provided are compositions, systems and kits that find use in practicing the subject methods. The subject methods and compositions find use in a variety of applications, including the diagnosis and monitoring of diabetes in a subject.
