Biomarker: In our preclinical mouse models of AIHA and in patients with AIHA, we have identified a new T cell population that predicts onset of autoimmune hemolytic anemia. The cell phenotype is: CD4+CD39+CD73-CD25-FoxP3-. These cells secrete IL-17 and/or IFNy upon stimulation, suggesting that they perpetuate autoimmune pathology. Treatment: Failure of tolerance to RBCs leads to modulation of the purinergic signaling pathway. Using our preclinical mouse models of AIHA secondary to checkpoint inhibitors, we have observed that prophylactic/concurrent apyrase treatment mitigates disease onset.

PARP inhibitor (PARPi) resistance continues to undermine successful treatment of BRCA-mutant breast cancers in the clinic. Two immunocompetent, orthotopic models of Brca1- and Bard1-mutant breast cancer were generated to explore PARPi resistance mechanisms in vivo. In contrast to the expected DNA-repair-related resistance mechanisms, the models identified activation of FLT1 (VEGFR1) as the basis for PARPi resistance. PARPi-resistant breast tumors with increased expression of FLT1 have increased expression of the FLT1 ligand PIGF in the tumor microenvironment, which activates FLT1 and its downstream effector AKT. Genetic inhibition of Flt1 inhibits AKT activation and causes dramatic tumor regression of PARPi-resistant tumors, while axitinib, a pan-VEGFR antagonist, resensitizes PARPi-resistant breast tumors to PARP inhibition in vivo. It was also discovered that breast cancers expressing high levels of FLT1 before PARPi treatment show faster progression on PARPi. Thus, novel cancer therapeutic compositions and methods related to preventing or reversing PARPi resistance are described herein.

Systems and methods of performing temperature swing solvent extraction (TSSE) descaling of produced water and desalination of high-salinity brines, e.g., those having a total dissolved solids (TDS) greater than about 250,000 ppm are capable of producing descaled water products including less than about 5% weight percent TDS. The brine/produced water feedstreams and combined with a solvent having temperature-dependent water solubility at a temperature TL. Water is extracted from the feedstream into the solvent to form a water-in-solvent extract component and a raffinate component, from which a solid phase can be precipitated as more water is portioned in the solvent and basicity increases. Heating of the water-in-solvent extract component reduces the solubility of the water therein, producing a biphasic mixture of dewatered solvent and descaled water that can be separated. Because these systems and methods do not require a phase change of water, these products are achieved with significantly higher energy efficiencies when compared to evaporation-based thermal methods.

Abrégé
Treatments and methods for inhibiting late Na current use fibroblast growth factor homologous factor (FHF), an endogenous channel modulator, to inhibit late Na current with high potency. A minimal effector domain is engineered within FHF (the “FHF-inhibiting-X-region” (FixR)) as a peptide inhibitor of late Na current that may be delivered intracellularly, for example as a cell-penetrating peptide, or via viral or plasmid delivery. As a non-limiting example, human adenovirus type 5 may be genetically modified with the sequence 5′-ATGGCTGCGGCGATAGCCAGCTCCTTGATCCGGCAGAAGCGGCAGGCGAGGGAG TCCAACAGCGACCGAGTGTCGGCCTCCAAGCGCCGCTCCAGCCCCAGCAAAGAC GGGCGCTCC-3′ (SEQ ID NO: 1). As pathophysiological impact of late Na current extends beyond cardiac myocytes to other physiological settings, including neurons of the central and peripheral nervous system and skeletal muscle, these treatments and methods provide potential therapeutic avenues for a range of human ailments, including cardiac conditions, neurological/neuropsychiatric disorders, and skeletal muscle conditions. Neurological/neuropsychiatric disorders include, for example, epilepsy and autism spectrum disorders, pain-related diseases, and myotonia.

The method of treating obesity and targeting adipose tissue in a patient may use injection of a polycationic polymer, such as polyamidoamine (PAMAM) generation 3 (P-G3) or a PCL-g-PAMAM Denpol, that when delivered intraperitoneally, selectively targets visceral adiposity due to its high charge density. P-G3 treatment of obese mice inhibits visceral adiposity, increases energy expenditure, prevents obesity, and alleviates associated metabolic dysfunctions. The extracellular matrix of adipose tissue is enriched with glycosaminoglycans, the known biomacromolecules with the strongest negative charge. P-G3 uncouples adipocyte lipid synthesis and storage from adipocyte development, creating adipocytes with normal functions but that are deficient in hypertrophic growth. The visceral fat distribution of P-G3 is further enhanced by modifying P-G3 with cholesterol to form lipophilic nanoparticles, effective in treating obesity. This strategy provides a method to target visceral adiposity, and cationic nanomaterials useful for treating metabolic diseases or for delivery of additional treating agents.

Multiple fluorophores within a sample can be imaged by merging a plurality of beams from different wavelength light sources of excitation light into a single path, directing the excitation light into the sample, and detecting light emitted by the fluorophores within the sample on two different arrays of pixels (e.g., two regions within a single camera sensor chip). The light sources are activated during respective timeslots, and captured image data is processed. For at least one of the timeslots, the processing of the image data comprises using the image data captured using the first array of pixels to detect a presence of a given fluorophore, and using the image data captured using the second array of pixels to detect a presence of a different fluorophore. This arrangement enables a system that includes only N light sources to image more than N fluorophores.

The present invention describes a fusion protein or peptide conjugate comprising the functional domain of a cardiac-specific short chain amino acid with low affinity for the CaVβ-subunit conjugated. The fusion protein or peptide conjugate upregulates the function of L-type calcium channels in a cell-type dependent manner. In some aspects, the fusion protein is a chimeric genetically encoded enhancer of calcium channels (GeeC) comprising the functional domain of a cardiac-specific short chain amino acid with low affinity for the CaVβ-subunit conjugated to a functionally inert nanobody with high affinity to the CaVβ-subunit. In some aspects, GeeC enables targeted upregulation of CaV1.2/1.3 channels in diverse physiological settings thereby opening new avenues to development of future therapeutics. Methods for creating and administering the GeeC to human and non-human animals for the purposes of experimenting and treating cardiac, neurological, and psychiatric pathologies are also described.

Abrégé
New therapies for macular degeneration and TTR amyloidosis are provided based on a co-drug that represents a conjugate of two distinct chemical entities as well as co- administration and sequential administration of the two chemical entities. The first component ("selective TTR ligand") is a chemical entity that engages TTR (transthyretin) of the RBP4 (retinol binding protein 4) -TTR complex, which is involved in delivery of retinol to the retina. This component reduces traffic of retinol from circulation to the retina and provides stabilization of TTR tetramers. The second component ("C20-D3-visual- chromophore-producing compound") is a C20-D3-modified retinoid or carotenoid that upon metabolism in a mammal can eventually produce a C20-D3 visual chromophore that represents C20-D3-9-cis-retinaldehyde or C20-D3-11-cis-retinaldehyde in the retina. Deuteration at the C20 position reduces the formation of lipofuscin bisretinoid while other functions (such as providing a precursor for in vivo synthesis of the visual chromophore, 11-cis-retinaldehyde) are not reduced.

Zhang, Chaolin
Abrégé
Disclosed herein is a computational algorithm that statistically infer a PPR code (preference of a PPR motif for a nucleotide base) while matching PPR proteins with their targets accurately without requiring experimental pairing information. From comprehensive lists of PLS-type PPR proteins and editing sites from more than 1500 PPRs, the algorithm derived a quantitative code including novel amino acid combinations in key positions that confer high specificity. For example, the predicted targets suggests that the recently identified DYW:KP domain is unequivocally responsible for the poorly characterized reverse U-to-C editing.
