The technology relates in part to methods for controlling elimination of therapeutic cells, for example, cells that express a chimeric antigen receptor. The technology further relates to a two-step method of controlling destruction of therapeutic cells in a patient following an adverse event. The two-step system may include a rapamycin or rapamycin analog-based level of control and a second, rimiducid, level of control. The technology also relates in part to methods for cell therapy using cells that express the inducible caspase polypeptide and the rapamycin-sensitive polypeptide, where the proportion of therapeutic cells eliminated by apoptosis is related to the choice and amount of the administered ligand.

The invention relates to compounds which activate the BASIGIN signalling pathway, preferably agonists of BASIGIN, for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders.

The present invention concerns the use of peptidyl-prolyl isomerase cyclophilin 40 (CyP40) for reduction of neurotoxic fibrils and treatment and prevention of neurodegenerative diseases associated with amyloid fibril aggregation. Aspects of the invention include compositions, methods, dosage forms, and kits for treating or preventing a neurodegenerative disease or condition associated with amyloid fibril aggregation in a human or animal subject, and for disaggregating neurofibrillary aggregates in vitro or in vivo, using CyP40, or a biologically active fragment thereof.
