The disclosure in some aspects relates to recombinant adeno-associated viruses having distinct tissue targeting capabilities. In some aspects, the disclosure relates to gene transfer methods using the recombinant adeno-associated viruses. In some aspects, the disclosure relates to isolated AAV capsid proteins and isolated nucleic acids encoding the same.

Disclosed are compounds having potency in the modulation of NMDA receptor activity. Such compounds can be used in the treatment of conditions such as depression and related disorders as well as other disorders.

The present specification provides RXR agonist compounds, compositions comprising such RXR agonists, and methods using such compounds and compositions to treat an autoimmune disorder, inflammation associated with an autoimmune disorder and/or a transplant rejection as well as use of such RXR agonists to manufacture a medicament and use of such compounds and compositions to treat an autoimmune disorder, inflammation associated with an autoimmune disorder and/or a transplant rejection.

The present invention relates to the fields of antibodies, antigen binding fragments and immunodiagnostics. Specifically, the invention relates to a recombinant anti-body or antigen binding fragment for binding thyroid hormone T4 (thyroxine) and halogenated bisphenol A. Also, the present invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence that encodes the recombinant antibody or antigen binding fragment of the present invention, as well as an ex-pression vector and host cell comprising the nucleic acid molecule of the present invention. Still, the present invention relates to a method of producing a recombi-nant antibody or antigen binding fragment for binding T4 thyroid hormone and hal-ogenated bisphenol A, a test kit and an immunoassay comprising the recombinant antibody or antigen binding fragment of the present invention, and a method for determining T4 thyroid hormone and/or halogenated bisphenol A levels in a sam-ple of a subject. Still further, the present invention relates to a method of treating a sample, e.g. an immunoaffinity-based sample preparation method for enrich-ment of the halogenated bisphenol A from a sample.

The present invention relates to a novel compound for preventing or treating neurodegenerative diseases and use thereof. Provided is a novel compound of Formula (I). The compound can effectively promotes the proliferation of neural progenitor cells in both in vitro and in vivo experiments, and can serves as a treatment approach to promote nerve regeneration to fight against cognition impairment associated with aging and neurodegenerative diseases.

The present invention relates to a transdermal therapeutic system for the transdermal administration of guanfacine comprising a guanfacine-containing layer structure, said guanfacine-containing layer structure comprising: A) a backing layer; and B) a guanfacine-containing layer; wherein the transdermal therapeutic system comprises at least one silicone polymer.

The present invention relates to sustained-release formulations and dosage forms of ruxolitinib, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which are useful in the treatment of Janus kinase-associated diseases such as myeloproliferative disorders.

The present invention relates to compounds of formula I, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, as well as compositions comprising such compounds. These compounds and compositions have uses in the treatment of psychiatric or neurological disorders. Compounds of formula I comprise at least one deuterium atom at the α-position and consequently have improved oral bioavailability relative to α-diprotic analogues. ##STR00001##
