Peptides to Treat SARS-CoV, Pulmonary Hypertension and other Pulmonary Vascular Diseases
This innovation is centered around a peptide designed to interrupt the action of a protein called Aminopeptidase N (APN). This peptide functions as an antagonist or inhibitor, binding to the intracellular portion of APN. The primary focus of this technology is to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and viral infections, including COVID-19. PAH...

A Method of Treating Cardiomyopathy
This innovation is based on the finding that lack of Leiomodin-2 (Lmod2) is associated with cardiovascular issues, specifically enlarged heart or cardiomyopathy and it is better to have a truncated/mutated Lmod2 than zero or little Lmod2 present. A premature stop codon associated with Lmod2 causes truncation of Lmod2. This innovation is the use of antisense...

Leukocyte Gene Expression Predicts Human Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Seizure Frequency
The leukocyte gene biomarkers presented here identify totally new and different genes whose expression predict temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) seizure frequency. This seizure frequency prediction is a manifestation of the underlying pathophysiology of TLE disease states which have, heretofore, not been identified to have a dichotomized genetic basis. Targeting...

Enhancing Absorption of Dietary Compounds to Promote Health
This innovation is directed to oral co-administration of glucuronidase and polyphenols for reabsorption in the gut. Glucuronidase are enzymes that can be made or derived from any source such as bacteria, recombinant, species agnostic, and others. The inactive glucuronides are cleared from the body by secretion back into the gastrointestinal track where...

Allosteric Inhibitors of the Main Protease of SARS-CoV-2
In this report, the SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro was expressed and purified. By using a FRET-based enzymatic assay, the researchers have screened a library consisting of more than 300 different niclosamide derivatives and identified three molecules JMX0286, JMX0301, and JMX0941 as potent allosteric inhibitors against SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro, with IC50 values like that...

Calcimycin as Antifungals
A new antifungal treatment is necessary, as pathogens evolve and develop immunity to current methods. Here, the inventors present calcimycin (CMN) as a novel treatment of cryptococcosis caused by Cryptococcus neoformans (Cne) and likely Cryptococcus gattii (Cga). CMN prevents the protein from continuing to splice. While the current treatment methods...
