Catherine Walsh has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Conditioned media to inhibit growth of tumor cells
    Publication number: 20050220893
    Abstract: Conditioned media compositions having valuable biological activity are obtained from cultures of immune cells from elasmobranch fishes. A method is provided for producing the conditioned media compositions. Conditioned media obtained using epigonal cells from bonnethead sharks (Sphyrna tiburo) and lemon sharks (Negaprion brevirostris) demonstrate strong anti-tumor activities. The conditioned media compositions can be used for treating tumor proliferation.
    Type: Application
    Filed: May 19, 2005
    Publication date: October 6, 2005
    Applicant: Mote Marine Laboratory
    Inventors: Catherine Walsh, Carl Luer

  • Calmodulin-based cell separation technique
    Patent number: 5985658
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for separating target cells from a plurality of cells which is based on a reversible high affinity interaction between two molecules. The method comprises: forming a target cell/cell binding reagent/first molecule/second molecule/solid support complex, wherein the cell binding reagent is specific for target cells present within a plurality of cells and wherein the first molecule reversibly binds to the second molecule; removing non-target cells of the plurality of cells not attached to the solid support; and reversing the first molecule binding to the second molecule, thereby releasing the target cells as separate cells from the plurality of cells.
