Compact Cas9-based transcriptional regulators for in vivo gene regulation
TS-045681 — Cas9-derived constructs can be used to modulate gene expression, but physical limitations restrict the application of this technique. Researchers at The Ohio State University have overcome this obstacle by engineering new Cas9-derived transcription factors.
CRISPR/Cas9 systems have revolutionized the field of programmable DNA technology. Recently, a version of the Cas9 protein with a deactivated nuclease domain called “dCas9” was developed. Without this domain, dCas9’s range of activity is limited to recognizing and binding sequence…

Live vaccine candidate for Chagas disease
TS-044084 — Trypanosoma cruzi is a protozoan parasite that causes Chagas disease, a PRV-eligible disease that is the leading cause of heart failure in Latin America. Due to migration of infected hosts from endemic regions, Chagas disease is also a growing public health concern in the USA and other migrant des…

System for Immobilizing the Skull during Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Ablation
TS-043964 — A non-invasive method for immobilizing the skull of a patient undergoing surgery. The device consists of pads for contacting screws from a standard stereotactic frame and a headband that result in immobilization without damage to the skin or skull.
Both stereotactic neurosurgery and transcranial focused ultrasound surgery systems have historically required a stereotactic frame to precisely position and completely immobilize a patient's head to ensure the correct location for the operation. This frame consists of multiple pins that must b…

Translational Activators of the Glutamate Transporter EAAT2 to Treat Neurological and Psychiatric Diseases
TS-043938 — Small molecule technology with novel translational activation mechanism.
Glutamate is a major neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS) and essential for normal brain function including cognition, memory, and learning. However, the extracellular concentration of glutamate must remain below excitotoxic levels (~ 1 μM) to avoid overstimulation of

Targeting β-catenin signaling in combination with EGFR TKI enhances progression free survival and overall survival of EGFR mutant NSCLC
TS-042666 — The discovery of a novel treatment for EGFR TKI drug resistance in NSCLC.
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which accounts for 85% of all lung cancers, is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death. Substantial progress has been made in the management of NSCLC as several driver mutations have been identified in cell communication pathways involved in lung tumor…

High-strength and Corrosion Resistant Alloy for Patient-Specific Bioresorbable Bone Fixation Hardware
TS-042526 — Novel ternary and quaternary Mg-Zn-Ca-based alloys and a heat treatment process for producing bioresorbable bone fixation implants with improved mechanical and corrosion properties
Mg-Zn-Ca-based alloys are the most promising alloy system for bone implant applications mainly due to their superior biocompatibility. For fixation applications, the ideal is a material strong enough to hold while healing (2-4 months) yet being fully resorbed after the bones have healed (6-24 mont…

miRNA Biomarkers for Diagnosis and Prediction of Radiation Induced Injury
TS-041968 — A minimally invasive procedure to determine radiation toxicity in victims of nuclear events or radiation therapy patients.
The lack of a reliable radiation biodosimeter has been a major barrier to medical decision-making regarding the triage and treatment of persons - civilians, soldiers and first-time responders - who might be at risk for developing acute radiation syndromes (ARS) following nuclear events (e.g. nucle…

Papaverine Derivatives that are Effective Hypoxic Tumor Radiosensitizers
TS-041504 — Dr. Nicholas Denko and colleagues at The Ohio State University have developed papaverine derivatives that can be used as metabolic radiosensitizers in hypoxic tumors. The compounds make cancer cells more sensitive to radiation therapy without the concomitant toxicity issues that can occur as a side-effect of papaverine.
Radiation therapy is a common treatment for cancerous tumors. However, environmental conditions in the tumor can influence sensitivity to radiation therapy, and some cells are resistant to treatment. For example, hypoxic cells (those with low levels of oxygen) in tumors such as lung, glioblastoma,…

Identifying the level of lupus patients’ comprehension of their medication regimens and disease outcomes
TS-040132 — A questionnaire used to understand a patient’s comprehension of their personalized medication plan and the disease fluctuation of systemic lupus erythematous (SLE).
Systemic lupus erythematous (SLE) is an autoimmune disease in which the body’s immune system attacks healthy tissue in its own body. The disease has a prevalance of twenty to 150 cases per 100,000 individuals, and is more common in females than in men. This chronic disease has no cure, and s…

Virtual image generation of immunohistochemical stained tissue sections using an artificial neural network
TS-039781 — Realistic immunohistochemical stained tissue section databases for training, certification, and machine standards.
Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is used to determine antigen distribution in a tissue and is widely used for diagnosis of cancers and other diseases. Diagnostic and research laboratories in the United States use locally devised IHC tissue slide preparation and scanning protocols to check scanner perfor…
