20150132297 | SURVIVAL PREDICTOR FOR DIFFUSE LARGE B CELL LYMPHOMA - The invention provides methods and materials related to a gene expression-based survival predictor for DLBCL patients. | 05-14-2015 |
20150087525 | PLASMA MICRORNAS FOR THE DETECTION OF EARLY COLORECTAL CANCER - The present invention relates in general to the field of colorectal cancer detection, and more particularly, to plasma microRNAs for the detection of early colorectal cancer. Specifically, the present invention includes methods, kits and biomarkers for diagnosing or detecting colorectal neoplasia in a human subject comprising the steps of: A method for diagnosing or detecting colorectal neoplasia in a human subject comprising the steps of: obtaining one or more biological samples from the subject suspected of suffering from colorectal neoplasia; measuring an overall expression pattern or level of one or more microRNAs obtained from the one or more biological samples of the subject; and comparing the overall expression pattern of the one or more microRNAs from the biological sample of the subject suspected of suffering from colorectal neoplasia with the overall expression pattern of the one or more microRNAs from a biological sample of a normal subject, wherein the normal subject is a healthy subject not suffering from colorectal neoplasia, wherein overexpression of a combination of miR19a and miR19b, or miR19a and miR19b and miR15b is indicative of colorectal cancer. | 03-26-2015 |
20140255469 | USE OF PHOTOLYASE FOR REDUCING OR IMPROVING SUBCLINICAL FIELD CANCERIZATION ASSOCIATED WITH ACTINIC KERATOSIS - The present invention relates to the use of photolyase enzymes to reduce or improve subclinical skin field cancerization associated with actinic keratosis or non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) and methods for the therapeutic treatment of subclinical field cancerization associated with actinic keratosis and/or non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC). | 09-11-2014 |
20130210665 | METHOD AND KIT FOR THE DIAGNOSIS AND/OR PROGNOSIS OF TOLERANCE IN LIVER TRANSPLANTATION - The invention refers to a method and kit for the in vitro diagnosis and/or prognosis of the tolerant state of a patient to be submitted to liver transplantation, which comprises assessing the level of systemic and/or intra-hepatic iron stores in a biological sample obtained from the patient under investigation, and comparing it either with the level of iron stores of a reference sample, or with a pre-determined threshold. | 08-15-2013 |
20130102487 | PLASMA MICRORNAS FOR THE DETECTION OF EARLY COLORECTAL CANCER - The present invention relates in general to the field of colorectal cancer detection, and more particularly, to plasma microRNAs for the detection of early colorectal cancer. Specifically, the present invention includes methods, kits and biomarkers for diagnosing or detecting colorectal neoplasia in a human subject comprising the steps of: A method for diagnosing or detecting colorectal neoplasia in a human subject comprising the steps of: obtaining one or more biological samples from the subject suspected of suffering from colorectal neoplasia; measuring an overall expression pattern or level of one or more microRNAs obtained from the one or more biological samples of the subject; and comparing the overall expression pattern of the one or more microRNAs from the biological sample of the subject suspected of suffering from colorectal neoplasia with the overall expression pattern of the one or more microRNAs from a biological sample of a normal subject, wherein the normal subject is a healthy subject not suffering from colorectal neoplasia, wherein overexpression of a combination of miR19a and miR19b, or miR19a and miR19b and miR15b is indicative of colorectal cancer. | 04-25-2013 |
20130022582 | MULTIPOTENT NESTIN-POSITIVE CELLS - The present invention relates to the use of at least one isolated multipotent stem cell for maintaining haematopoiesis in vitro, in which said multipotent stem cell is preferably a mesenchymal stem cell or, more preferably, said mesenchymal stem cell is a mesenchymal stem cell capable of expressing the nestin protein. The present invention also relates to an isolated cell population of adult nestin-positive mesenchymal cells from a mammal, including humans, to the use thereof for producing a drug for maintaining haematopoiesis in a mammal, for the prevention and/or treatment of at least one disease associated with a malfunction in maintaining haematopoiesis in a mammal, and for maintaining and expanding adult haematopoietic stem cells of said mammal, including a human. Furthermore, the present invention also relates to a method for maintaining haematopoiesis in vitro or to a method for evaluating the haematopoietic capacity of a mammal. | 01-24-2013 |
20120088687 | MicroRNAs (miRNA) as Biomarkers for the Identification of Familial and Non-Familial Colorectal Cancer - A technique for the analysis of global miRNA signatures including a larger panel of miRNAs in various groups of well-characterized colorectal cancers (CRCs) is described in the instant invention. The results presented herein provide a large list of miRNAs that are dysregulated in CRC compared to the normal colonic tissue, and, more importantly, the present invention shows for the first time that Lynch syndrome and sporadic MSI tumors exhibit a different miRNA signature that distinguishes them. | 04-12-2012 |
