The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for selectively killing senescent cells, wherein the selective killing of senescent cells delays aging and treats age-related disorders.
Recombinant T cell clonotypes are provided that express T cell receptor alpha and T cell receptor beta polypeptides with specificity for human papillomavirus (HPV) type 16 E6 protein and that amplify in response to a therapeutic vaccine and traffic to ovarian lesional tissue in a patient whose HPV lesions regressed in response to the vaccine. Recombinant T cells expressing appropriate TCR alpha and beta complimentarity determining sequences for HPV 16 E6 binding and treating HPV-cased cancers are provided. Bifunctional proteins having TCR alpha and beta segments that bind to HPV 16 E6 residues 91-115 and a single chain Fv anti-CD3 antibody domain are provided. These bifunctional proteins can direct T cells to HPV-infected cells.
A device and method of using the device to detect the presence and composition of clots and other target objects in a circulatory vessel of a living subject is described. In particular, devices and methods of detecting the presence and composition of clots and other target objects in a circulatory vessel of a living subject using in vivo photoacoustic flow cytometry techniques is described.

The present invention encompasses an amino acid composition for stimulating muscle protein synthesis. Further, the present disclosure relates generally to the use of an anabolic amino acid composition for the stimulation of muscle protein synthesis. In particular, disclosed are compositions and methods of using the same for the prevention and/or treatment of a loss of any one of muscle mass, muscle strength, muscle function, and physical function, or any combination thereof, in a mammal, especially an adult mammal. Also provided are kits comprising a composition for the stimulation of muscle protein synthesis and, in certain embodiments, instructions for administration.
Disclosed herein are RNA methyltransf erase inhibitors and methods of using and making the same. The inhibitors may be used in a method for the treatment of a subject in need of a treatment for a cancer by administering an effective amount of the RNA methyltransferase inhibitor and an effective amount of a DNA damaging agent to the subject.
The present invention provides methods of treating bone loss or cancer using CST6. In these methods, CST6 may be provided as a recombinant CST6 protein, a polynucleotide construct comprising CST6, or an immune cell expressing CST6 protein.
The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for increasing the production of virus in vitro. Modified cells which are modified to eliminate or reduce as compared to a control cell the activity or expression of a Sterile a motif-domain containing protein 9 (SAMD9) polypeptide are provided. Methods of using these cells are also provided.
This invention describes a small molecule proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) strategy to degrade the NEK2 (Never in Mitosis Related Kinase 2) protein and methods of use thereof. The NEK2 PROTAC consists of three, key regions: a NEK2 ligand to bind the NEK2 protein, a linker region to link the NEK2 ligand to a ligase ligand, and the ligase ligand.
A cellulose based anti-viral/anti-microbial coating.
