Apoprotein manufacturing and methods for protein purification
TS-046794 — Methods of purifying proteins that can be used in various applications such as drug delivery and detoxification of byproducts of hemolysis.
Novel protein and apoprotein purification strategies are valuable tools with a wide variety of medical and research applications. While there are existing techniques for protein and apoprotein purification, some of these have flaws such as the use of harsh denaturants, highly flammable solvents, l…

Therapeutic uses of the apohemoglobin-haptoglobin complex
TS-046454 — Original, synthetic complexes used to detoxify hemoglobin, heme, and free iron in patients suffering from hemolysis. The use of these complexes would allow effective treatment of various states of hemolysis and would mitigate the numerous side effects associated with the condition. Complexes could also be used as a drug carrier for targeting CD163+ macrophages and monocytes.
Hemolysis is a burgeoning health condition that results from various pathophysioloigical conditions. It is characterized by the rupture of red blood cells, which release toxic, cell-free hemoglobin into the bloodstream. The cell-free hemoglobin further break down into heme and apoglobin, which cau…

Separation of Small Hydrophobic Ligands from Proteins via Tangential Flow Filtration
TS-040370 — Novel strategy to separate hydrophobic ligands from proteins through the use of Tangential Flow Filtration in which efficiency, safety, and scalability are improved. Enhanced production of proteins in this native state holds promise both for improved research and biomedical applications.
Successfully isolating proteins in their non-liganded state (i.e. apoprotein form) allows for an in-depth study of proteins from a research perspective. From an application standpoint apoproteins hold tremendous promise as both potential therapeutics and as drug delivery vehicles given their natur…
