Patent number: 11351272Abstract: Provided herein are methods for facilitating or inducing stable transgene integration and expression in a proliferating cell, comprising administering to the cell (i) a recombinant AAV (rAAV) vector comprising the transgene flanked by transposon-derived inverted terminal repeat sequences, which sequences are in turn flanked by AAV-derived inverted terminal repeat regions, and (ii) a source of a transposase that recognises said transposon-derived inverted terminal repeat sequences and directs the genomic integration of the transgene into the genome of the proliferating cell. Also provide are methods and transgene delivery systems for the treatment or prevention of diseases affecting, associated with or characterised by proliferating cells.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2019Date of Patent: June 7, 2022Assignees: THE SYDNEYCHILDREN'S HOSPITALS NETWORK (RANDWICK AND WESTMEAD) (INCORPORATING THE ROYAL ALEXANDRA HOSPITAL FOR CHILDREN), CHILDREN'S MEDICAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE, MOUNT SINAI HOSPITALInventors: Ian Alexander, Sharon Cunningham, Andras Nagy

Publication number: 20220016181Abstract: Featured are cells and methods of use thereof for modulating an antigen-specific immune response in a subject. The cells comprise a set of transgenes comprising two or more of PD-L1, HLA-G or H2-M3, Cd47, Cd200, FASG or FasL, Ccl21 or Ccl21b, MfgeS and Serpin B9 or Spi6, that shield the cells from immune surveillance (ie. “cloaking genes”). The cells can be used to induce immune tolerance to an antigen (e.g., a donor alloantigen or a self-antigen), or to induce an immune response to (e.g., induce the production of antibodies directed against) a non-self antigen.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2019Publication date: January 20, 2022Inventors: Andras NAGY, Jeffrey HARDING, Kristina NAGY

Patent number: 11003833Abstract: A layout engine generates a visual layout tree for a visual description tree of a document whose content is to be rendered in one or more display areas. A visual description tree describes the content of a document along with formatting and logical arrangement the content. Visual description nodes of a visual description tree represent the organization of the constituent elements a document hierarchically. A visual layout tree defines the layout of a document within one or more display areas. Visual layout nodes of a visual layout tree represent the layout of the content of a document hierarchically. The layout engine receives as input a visual description tree and generates the corresponding visual layout tree. A rendering engine then inputs the visual layout tree and generates a graphics buffer containing the pixels representing the layout of the document as defined by the visual layout tree.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2015Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Charles Simonyi, Andras Nagy

Patent number: 10721084Abstract: Groupware features are described that support asynchronous collaboration for a synchronous collaboration environment. During a synchronous collaboration session, a document is displayed at a user's computing device. As changes to the document are received at the user's computing device, a change list is updated and the modified document is displayed. Any changes from the user are broadcast to other participants. For asynchronous collaboration during the session, a user-specific fork is created in the change list to contain private changes for the user. For each private change from the user, the groupware updates the change list in the user-specific fork with the private change, which is not broadcast to the other participants for reconciliation.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2017Date of Patent: July 21, 2020Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Charles Simonyi, Eran Megiddo, Andras Nagy, Alexander Elijah Pardes

Patent number: 10325398Abstract: Techniques and systems for applying an ink effect to the drawing of an ink stroke can include absolute age for a digital ink stroke. A digital ink system can identify a reference time from which to represent a current time. The system can generate an absolute age of each ink point of the ink stroke based on the reference time. Then the ink effect can be applied to the ink stroke with a rhythm derived from when the ink stroke was originally drawn by using the absolute age of each ink point. In some cases, the rhythm can be the same rhythm as when the ink stroke was originally drawn. In other cases, the rhythm can be modified based on the rhythm the ink stroke was originally drawn. For example, the original rhythm may be accelerating, decelerating, skewed, compressed, affine, or non-affine.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2018Date of Patent: June 18, 2019Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Paul J.
