Methods For Identifying Candidate Compounds For Treating, Reducing, Or Preventing Pathogenic Infections

US Patent:
2007029, Dec 20, 2007
Filed:
Jan 21, 2005
Appl. No.:
10/586403
Inventors:
Laurence Rahme - Brookline MA, US
Eric Deziel - Somerville MA, US
Francois Lepine - Longueuil, CA
Ronald Tompkins - Boston MA, US
Gaoping Xiao - Malden MA, US
International Classification:
C12Q 1/68, C12Q 1/18
US Classification:
435006000, 435032000
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods for identifying candidate compounds for treating, reducing, or preventing a pathogenic infection, the methods including: (a) contacting a pathogenic cell with a candidate compound; and (b) measuring the production of a molecule selected from the group consisting of an 4-hydroxy-2-alkylquinoline (HAQ) molecule, 4-hydroxy-2-heptylquinoline (HHQ) molecule, or a derivative or precursor thereof in the cell, a candidate compound that reduces the production relative to production of the molecule by a cell not contacted with the candidate compound, identifying a candidate compound useful for treating, reducing, or preventing a pathogenic infection.

Methods For The Prevention And Treatment Of Burn Injuries And Secondary Complications

US Patent:
2010033, Dec 30, 2010
Filed:
Mar 19, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/727647
Inventors:
Ronald G. Tompkins - Boston MA, US
A. Aria Tzika - Jamaica Plain MA, US
Yong-Ming Yu - Cambridge MA, US
Laurence Rahme - Jamaica Plain MA, US
Jeevendra A. Martyn - Winchester MA, US
International Classification:
A61K 38/07, A61P 1/16, A61P 1/02, A61P 11/00, A61P 13/12, A61P 21/00
US Classification:
514 219
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to methods for treating a subject suffering from a burn injury or associated complications by administering to the subject an effective amount of an aromatic-cationic peptide. For example, a burn injury may be associated with distant pathophysiological effects, such as hypermetabolism, skeletal muscle dysfunction, and organ damage. The disclosure also relates to methods for protecting a subject from a burn injury by administering an effective amount of an aromatic-cationic peptide to a subject at risk of a burn injury.

Separation Of Leukocytes

US Patent:
2011007, Mar 24, 2011
Filed:
Apr 27, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/768573
Inventors:
Amit Gupta - Somerville MA, US
Alan Rosenbach - Worcester MA, US
Aman Russom - Stockholm, SE
Kenneth T. Kotz - Auburndale MA, US
Mehmet Toner - Wellesley MA, US
Ronald G. Tompkins - Boston MA, US
International Classification:
C12Q 1/68, C12Q 1/04, C12N 5/078, C12N 5/0786
US Classification:
435 6, 435 34, 435325
Abstract:
Leukocytes (e.g., neutrophils, monocytes and/or lymphocytes) can be captured and separated from blood by removing platelets using a spiral channel, followed by capturing individual leukocyte types in a series of cell capture channels having leukocyte binding moieties. Accordingly, various microfluidic-based cell affinity chromatography methods can be used to separate leukocytes from whole blood.

Culturing Liver Cells Between Two Supports

US Patent:
5602026, Feb 11, 1997
Filed:
Oct 28, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/331167
Inventors:

The General Hospital Corporation - Boston MA
Massachusetts Institute of Technology - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
C12N 502, C12N 500
US Classification:
435395
Abstract:
A method for maintaining hepatocytes in culture includes providing the hepatocytes with a support, the support including extracellular matrix, the support having a configuration that permits each of at least a portion of the hepatocytes to form at least one apical surface and at least two discrete basal surfaces.

Methods For The Prevention Or Treament Of Bacterial And Fungal Infections

US Patent:
2005011, Jun 2, 2005
Filed:
Oct 30, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/493989
Inventors:
Laurence Rahme - Brookline MA, US
Hui Cao - Natick MA, US
Francois Lepine - Quebec Montreal, CA
Eric Deziel - Somerville MA, US
Ronald Tompkins - Boston MA, US
International Classification:
A61K031/47
US Classification:
514312000
Abstract:
The present invention features improved methods for treating, stabilizing, or preventing a bacterial or a fungal infection in a plant or an animal, such as a mammal. In particular, these methods involve the use of a compound, that is controlled by MvfR, and that affects the expression of an MvfR protein or that promotes its modification or inactivation, or a compound produced by strain PA14, but not by containing an mvfR mutation, in late stationary phase culture.
