Disclosed are monoclonal antibodies and their fragments that specifically recognize canine DLA-DR antigen and their use in the treatment, prevention, or diagnosis of leukemias and lymphomas, especially canine.

The invention provides a system, composition, and methods of using the systems and compositions for the analysis of a sample from a subject to accurately diagnose, prognose, or classify the subject with certain grades of or susceptibility to Barrett's esophagus. In some embodiments, the system of the present invention comprises a means of detecting and/or quantifying morphological features, the expression of protein, or the expression of nucleic acids in a plurality of cells and correlating that data with a subject's medical history to predict clinical outcome, treatment plans, preventive medicine plans, or effective therapies. In some embodiments, the invention relates to a method of classifying and compiling data taken from a cell sample from a subject analyzing the data, and converting the data from the system into a score by which a pathologist may calculate the likelihood that the subject develops cancer.

The present invention describes methods of identifying drugs for the treatment or prevention of diabetes by measuring the activity of the human zinc transporter ZnT8 and pharmaceutical compositions.

In one aspect, provided herein is a method comprising: (a) (i) determining cytolytic activity in a tumor from the subject; and/or (ii) determining genetic alterations associated with cytolytic activity in the tumor; and (b) administering an immunotherapeutic agent to the subject if (i) cytolytic activity is detected in the tumor and/or (ii) a genetic alteration associated with induction of cytolytic activity, tumor resistance to cytolytic activity and/or suppression of cytolytic activity is detected in the tumor.

The present invention relates to methods and compositions for sequential multidimensional immunohistochemical analyses of tissues.

Provided herein, among other aspects, are methods and apparatuses for ranking aliquots from a suspension containing bioparticles. In certain embodiments, the bioparticles may be cells, organelles, proteins, DNAs, debris of biological origin, microbeads coated with biological compounds, or viral particles. As such, the methods and apparatuses provided herein may be used to quantify rare cells such as circulating cancer cells, fetal cells and other rare cells present in bodily fluids for disease diagnosis, prognosis, or treatment.

A Fe(II)- and Ca.sup.+2-chelated alginate/gelatin conjugate.

Treatment of multiple myeloma with a combination of panobinostat and bortezomib at specified doses adjusted for safety.

The disclosure features systems and methods for measuring and diagnosing target constituents bound to labeling particles in a sample. The systems include a radiation source, a sample holder, a detector configured to obtain one or more diffraction patterns of the sample each including information corresponding to optical properties of sample constituents, and an electronic processor configured to, for each of the one or more diffraction patterns: (a) analyze the diffraction pattern to obtain amplitude information and phase information corresponding to the sample constituents; (b) identify one or more particle-bound target sample constituents based on at least one of the amplitude information and the phase information; and (c) determine an amount of at least one of the particle-bound target sample constituents in the sample based on at least one of the amplitude information and the phase information.

A method of treating or preventing breast cancer (eg invasive ductal carcinoma) and/or cancer associated with elevated levels of either one or both of the IL-3 receptor (IL-3R) and interleukin-3 (IL-3) is disclosed which comprises administering to a subject an IL-3 -inhibiting agent such as an agent which inhibits (eg by blocking) IL-3R.
