Provided herein is technology relating to treatment of sepsis and particularly, but not exclusively, to methods for predicting a response of a sepsis patient to treatment with L-carnitine.

A method of treating or preventing adverse outcomes associated with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) administration, cerebral edema-related side effects, cerebral edema associated with radiation therapy, or migraine headaches by administering an effective amount of a SUR1-TRPM4 channel inhibitor, such as glyburide, and optionally the co-administration of a second therapeutically active agent, to a subject in need thereof. Adverse outcomes associated with tPA include cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral edema, physical impairment or death. The administration of the SUR1-TRPM4 channel inhibitors occurs prior to the radiation therapy, during the radiation therapy, after the radiation therapy, or combinations thereof. The SUR1-TRPM4 channel inhibitor is administered prior to surgical excision of a brain tumor, CAR-T therapy, or administration of flutarabine. Alternatively, or in addition, the SUR1-TRPM4 channel inhibitor is administered prior the onset of the cerebral edema-related side effects.

The invention relates to the prevention and treatment of pathologic scars using APC or analogue thereof.

To provide a method for producing a horseshoe crab recombinant Factor C. The horseshoe crab recombinant Factor C is produced through expression thereof by use of mammalian cells such as CHO DG44 and HEK293 as host cells.

Use of activated protein C (APC) for treatment and prevention of ocular diseases, disorders or conditions associated with retinal leakage and CNV such as age-related macular degeneration, optionally in combined therapy with anti-angiogenesis, anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, and anti PDGF agent.

The invention relates to wound repair and healing, particularly to dermal or cutaneous wounds including but not limited to acute and chronic wounds, burns and ulcers.

This disclosure relates to a method of generating conditionally active biologic proteins from wild type proteins, in particular therapeutic proteins, which are reversibly or irreversibly inactivated at the wild type normal physiological conditions. For example, evolved proteins are virtually inactive at body temperature, but are active at lower temperatures.

Compositions and methods for regulating the blood coagulation pathway are disclosed. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to thrombin-thrombomodulin fusion proteins, vectors, host cells and methods for preparing the thrombin-thrombomodulin fusion proteins. The present disclosure further relates to methods for measuring protein C in plasma and kits for measuring protein C in plasma.
