Treatment Of Cerebrovascular Disease With Neurogenic Locus Notch Homolog Protein 3 (NOTCH3) Agents
The present disclosure provides methods of treating subjects having a cerebrovascular disease by administering Neurogenic Locus Notch Homolog Protein 3 (NOTCH3) agents, and methods of identifying subjects having an increased risk of developing a cerebrovascular disease.
METHODS AND COMPOSTIONS FOR INHIBITING CORONAVIRAL REPLICATION
Provided herein are methods and compositions for inhibiting p97, for the treatment of a coronavirus infection in a subject, or a symptom thereof. Upon treatment, the coronavirus infection, or a symptom thereof is reduced in the subject.
Targeting BCL11A distal regulatory elements for fetal hemoglobin reinduction
Provided herein are methods and compositions for increasing fetal hemoglobin levels in a cell by disrupting BCL11A expression at the genomic level. Also provided herein are methods and compositions relating to the treatment of hemoglobinopathies by reinduction of fetal hemoglobin levels.
LIPID NANOPARTICLE FORMULATIONS AND COMPOSITIONS
Disclosed are compositions of lipid nanoparticles (LNP) comprising an ionizable cationic lipid, a phospholipid, a sterol, and a PEG-lipid (non-functionalized and optionally functionalized). The functionalized PEG-lipid can be conjugated with a binding moiety to create a targeted LNP (tLNP). The disclosed tLNP preferentially deliver a nucleic acid molecule or other negatively charged payload to cells expressing a cell surface antigen recognized by the binding moiety of the tLNP, and are better tolerated, as compared to LNPs and tLNPs comprising ionizable cationic lipids found in marketed pharmaceuticals comprising LNPs.
Human kynureninase enzyme variants having improved pharmacological properties
Methods and compositions related to the use of a protein with kynureninase activity are described. For example, in certain aspects there may be disclosed a modified kynureninase capable of degrading kynurenine. Furthermore, certain aspects of the invention provide compositions and methods for the treatment of cancer with kynurenine depletion using the disclosed proteins or nucleic acids.

Furthermore, certain aspects of the invention provide compositions and methods for the treatment of cancer with kynurenine depletion using the disclosed proteins or nucleic acids.
AAV-CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing of VEGFR2 for treating ocular diseases
Editing of VEGFR2 abrogated angiogenesis in two mouse models of oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) and laser-induced choroid neovascularization (CNV). Provided are compositions, e.g., Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) Vectors comprising sequences encoding CRISPR/Cas9 proteins and guide RNA, and methods of use thereof for editing of Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) gene to treat ocular disease associated with pathological angiogenesis, e.g., neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD), proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).
Phosphorus-sparing nutritional composition
A nutritional composition comprises (a) one to a plurality of physiologically acceptable calcium salts and/or chelates and (b) one or more phosphorus-containing components, such as phosphate salts, and/or phosphorus-rescuing components, such as phytase. The composition is useful for phosphorus-sparing calcium supplementation of the diet of a human subject, and for treatment of a low bone density condition in a human subject in need thereof.
