  • Publication number: 20240071633
    Abstract: The various implementations described herein include methods and systems for configuring, managing, and/or using a health utility network. A system includes a health utility platform configured to execute collaboration services and distributed ledger services. The system also includes a health network including a private network interconnect configured to provide access, routing and service discovery. The health network is communicatively coupled to the health utility platform. The system also includes landing zones communicatively coupled to the health utility platform via the health network. Each landing zone is configured to run applications for a participant. The applications are configured to consume data and/or provide services on the health network. The collaboration services and the distributed ledger services are configured to provide context or facilitate data exchanges between different landing zones.

  • Patent number: 7867724
    Abstract: Hypoxia, a state of lower than normal tissue oxygen tension, has recently been implicated in a host of human diseases, including cancer, heart disease, and neurological disorders. Novel associations between p97 and other proteins, including UBX-domain-containing proteins (UBX-polypeptides), HIF1?, and a variety of E3 ligases are provided herein. The disclosure provides complexes comprising UBX-domain-containing polypeptides (UBX-polypeptides) and other polypeptides involved in the degradation of ubiquitinated proteins. In addition, the disclosure provides uses for active agents that modulate protein-protein complex formation between an UBX-polypeptide and its complementary-binding substrate. For example, the disclosure provides methods for treating or preventing hypoxia-related disorders or conditions in a patient or a cell by administration of an active agent that modulates the activity of an UBX-polypeptide and/or its complementary binding-substrate.
