ISOLATED INTERLEUKIN-34 POLYPEPTIDE FOR USE IN PREVENTING TRANSPLANT REJECTION AND TREATING AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES
The invention relates to an isolated interleukin-34 (IL-34) polypeptide for use in preventing or treating graft rejection, autoimmune disease, unwanted immune response against therapeutic proteins and allergy. The invention also provides an in vitro method for determining whether a patient is at risk of transplant rejection, autoimmune diseases, unwanted immune response against therapeutic proteins or allergies, comprising a step of determining the expression level of IL-34 in a biological sample obtained from said patient, wherein the presence of IL-34 is indicative of a reduced risk of transplant rejection, autoimmune diseases, unwanted immune response against therapeutic proteins or allergies.
MODULATION OF CANCER IMMUNITY WITH TYPE 2 INNATE LYMPHOID CELLS, INTERLEUKIN 33, AND/OR INTERFERON INDUCED PROTEIN 44
The present invention provides methods of modulating of cancer immunity using type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s), interleukin 33 (IL-33), IFI44 or combination thereof. Also provided are methods of preventing tumor metastasis and/or cancer progression by treatment with therapies comprising type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s), interleukin 33 (IL-33), IFI44 or combination thereof. Also provided are diagnostic methods for assessing cancer prognosis.
DETECTION AND TREATMENT OF IL-17 AND IL-13 RELATED CONDITIONS
Provided herein are compositions, systems, and methods for detecting and treating IL-17 and/or IL-13 related conditions, such as asthma, autoimmune diseases, and cancer. In some embodiments, methods, compositions, and systems are provided for detecting elevated protein or RNA levels of IL-17 (and/or IL-13) and a second marker selected from: SAA, LCN2, and YKL-40, and treating the subject with an IL-17 (or IL-13) inhibitor or IL-17 (or IL-13) receptor inhibitor. In other embodiments, methods, compositions, and systems are provided for detecting a biomarker in a sample from a subject that has been treated with an IL-17 (or IL-13) inhibitor or IL-17 (or IL-13) receptor inhibitor, where the biomarker is SAA, LCN2, or YKL-40, and where at least one action is performed, such as identifying elevated levels of the biomarker in the biological sample and treating the subject with an IL-17 (or IL-13) inhibitor and/or IL-17 (or IL-13) receptor inhibitor.
METHOD FOR DIAGNOSIS AND SUBTYPING OF ADULT ONSET STILL'S DISEASE
The invention relates to method of diagnosis a subject suffering from Adult-onset Still's disease and further to determine the disease course of the subject suffering from Adult-onset Still's disease.
Methods for Categorizing and Treating Subjects at Risk for Pulmonary Exacerbation and Disease Progression
The present invention is related to novel methods for categorizing and treating a population of subjects that are at risk for increased pulmonary exacerbation and disease progression.
METHODS AND REAGENTS FOR CHARACTERIZING CAR T CELLS FOR THERAPIES
Provided herein are methods, kits and reagents for analyzing attributes of engineered immune cells, such as CAR T cells. For example, provided herein are methods of determining the amount or percentage of residual TCRαβ+ CAR T cells in allogeneic CAR T cell drug product and characterizing other important attributes of CAR T cell drug product.
PREDICTION AND EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY
The present invention relates to prediction and early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI). The method provides biomarkers that correlate with a patient's risk of developing AKI, or with the presence of early stage AKI. The invention also provides devices and kits for predicting the risk of occurrence of AKI and for diagnosing AKI.
ANTI-INTERLEUKIN 36 RECEPTOR (IL-36R) THERAPY FOR ICHTHYOSIS
The invention relates to methods of treating ichthyosis in a subject with an inhibitor of the interleukin 36 (IL-36) pathway, and methods of selecting a subject for therapy with the IL-36 pathway inhibitor.
PANEL OF INFLAMMASOME PROTEINS AS RADIATION BIODOSIMETER
The present invention relates to a panel of inflammasone biomarkers for detecting exposure to ionizing radiation and/or for determining absorbed dose of ionizing radiation in a subject exposed thereto.
Treatment Of Lung Disease Based Upon Stratification Of Polygenic Risk Score For Interleukin 33 (IL-33)
The present disclosure provides methods of treating lung disease subjects that are likely to respond to an IL-33 antagonist, an interleukin-4 receptor alpha antagonist, or an IL-13 receptor antagonist, based on the subject's IL-33 Asthma polygenic risk score.
