Abstract

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality in men and women. Uncontrolled proliferation of CRC cells is pivotal in colorectal tumorigenesis and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is an important regulatory enzyme in this process. Timely diagnosis is the key to life-saving management of CRC, which is under-diagnosed because colorectal aberrant crypt foci, hyper plastic polyps, micro edemas are often missed with conventional colonoscopy. Disclosed herein are imaging agents tagged to nanobodies specific for COX-2 protein that can selectively accumulate and retain in COX-2 expressing cells and colorectal adenomas, resulting in specific and sensitive of early detection, while reducing background and off-target systemic toxicity. The prospect of combining structural and functional imaging readouts obtained with fluorescence-aided colonoscopy measurements would provide powerful diagnostic information for improved management of colorectal carcinogenesis.

Abstract

Some T-cell receptors (TCRs) require many ligands for activation while others need only a few, functioning in analog or digital modes, correspondingly. Digital performance is best but undiscernible using conventional functional avidity or TCR sequence distance metrics. Correlates of optimal biophysical parameters include magnitudes of ERK phosphorylation, CD3 surface loss, and activation marker upregulation. The disclosed findings underscore the requirement to match TCR performance quality with pMHC copy number, as nature does. Given tumor antigen array paucity, engaging superior digital TCRs appears critical for T-cell adoptive cancer therapies and vaccines. Therefore, disclosed herein are methods for detecting digital T cell receptor interactions with presented antigen and selecting a T cell or antigen based on these methods. Also disclosed are adoptive cell transfer methods for treating a subject with digital T cells identified by the disclosed methods. In addition, disclosed are methods for designing RNA vaccines based on the copy number that elicits a digital T cell response.

Abstract

This invention provides methods for treating endothelial dysfunction by administering an effective amount of citrulline to a patient. The patients may be suffering from acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), sepsis, or infection by COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019); COVID-19 patients may be at risk of developing endothelial dysfunction, or they may be experiencing endothelial dysfunction. The effective amount of citrulline is sufficient to reduce the uncoupling of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) or to reduce the formation of free radicals. Citrulline may be administered orally; intravenously; or both orally and intravenously in a sequential manner. Sequential administration of citrulline may be in three phases, such as (a) an initial phase in which citrulline is administered orally, (b) an intermediate phase wherein citrulline is administered intravenously, and (c) a final phase wherein citrulline is administered orally. The intermediate phase may be while the patient's breathing is being assisted mechanically.

Disclosed herein is a custom platform called NSC-seq that can be used for cell lineage and cell division tracking in a temporal fashion but also with single-cell resolution. With simultaneous integration of single-cell transcriptomics with lineage barcoding and temporal recording information, NSC-seq facilitates the generation of multidimensional datasets for elucidating functional heterogeneity and clonal events in vivo. We apply this platform (i) to decipher lineage branching of mouse embryonic development, (ii) to record clonal dynamics of the adult intestinal epithelium, and (iii) to track clonal composition of the mouse intestinal tumors. In addition, we apply NSC-seq to assess a comprehensive gene expression phenotype for individual gene knockout at the single-cell level using existing whole-genome CRISPR knockout screening plasmid libraries. Overall, NSC-seq enables in vivo temporal recording of mammalian development and cancer at single-cell resolution.

Abstract

Methods and systems for automatic segmentation of structures of interest of an organ in an MR image. The method includes creating a weighted active shape model (wASM); registering model points of the structures in an MR atlas image to a target image that is the MR image to be segmented, as initial model points of the structures in the target image; and iteratively fitting the wASM to the target image, starting from the initial model points, until the shape converges, wherein the final shape is the segmentation of the structures of interest.

Abstract

Methods and apparatus for generating intraocular overlay patterns in an optical microscope. In one example, an intraocular overlay pattern is generated using a digital micromirror device located in the intermediate focal plane of a telecentric optical relay coupled between the objective lens and an eyepiece of the optical microscope. In some examples, the overlay pattern displays real-time visualization of intraoperative optical coherence tomography data and surgical field overlays. Such overlay patterns can beneficially be used, e.g., to provide real-time intraoperative feedback during ophthalmic surgery substantially without any interference with the surgical workflow.

The disclosed system predicts the biological age of skeletal remains using a convolutional neural network (trained, for example, using 693 radiographs from 136 adults interred in lead coffins in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in the crypt of London's St. Bride's Church). Additionally, to increase explainability and minimize the risk of overfitting, the disclosed system uses backpropagation to generate heatmaps that localize relevant regions of the skeletal remains that are class-discriminative (i.e., most important to the model in predicting the age-at-death).

Abstract

The second most common CHIP mutation, Ten eleven translocase 2 (TET2), is known to produce worse atherosclerosis in models of atheroprone mice, potentially through an inflammatory mechanism. Disclosed herein is an important modulator in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis formation in the setting of TET2 inactivation. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), a chemokine, was Identified as a highly expressed signaling pathway in single cell analysis of TET2 CHIP patients. In a large population, a MIF single nucleotide variant (SNV) resulting in increased MIF production was correlated with increased coronary disease in the setting of TET2 inactivation. Moreover, MIF inhibition was found to reduce the atherosclerotic burden in atheroprone mice with TET2 inactivation.
