  • Publication number: 20220184604
    Abstract: The systems, devices, and methods utilize devices configured to (i) control the loading of each channel layer and/or (ii) prevent formation of bubbles within the channels. A device may include two or more stacked layers. The two or more stacked layers may include a first layer and a second layer. The first entry region diameter of the first layer and the second entry region diameter of the second layer may be different; and/or the first exit region diameter of the first layer and the second exit region diameter of the second layer may be different; and/or one or more of the first channel dimensions (e.g., length and/or width) of the first layer and the one or more of the second channel dimensions (e.g., length and/or width) of the second layer may be different.

  • Patent number: 11136369
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to recombinant cellular expression of chimeric proteins with peptide sequences derived from lymphocyte receptors and uses for treating cancer. In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to a recombinant vector comprising a nucleic acid that encodes a chimeric protein with a segment with a targeting moiety based on a variable lymphocyte receptor (VLR) capable of binding a tumor associated antigen and a segment with a T cell signal transduction subunit. In certain embodiments, the recombinant vectors are used in immune based cancer treatments.
