Publication number: 20220211018Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to transgenic animals (e.g., transgenic porcine animals) comprising multiple genetic modifications that advantageously render these animals suitable donors for xenotransplanation. The present disclosure extends to organs, organ fragments, tissues and cells derived from these animals and their therapeutic use. The present disclosure further extends to methods of making such animals. In certain embodiments, the transgenic animals (e.g., transgenic porcine animals) have reduced expression of the growth hormone receptor (GHR) gene or have impaired function of the GHR protein.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 19, 2021Publication date: July 7, 2022Applicant: Revivicor, Inc.Inventors: Martine ROTHBLATT, David AYARES, Willard EYESTONE

Patent number: 8969409Abstract: One embodiment relates to a method of treating pulmonary hypertension based upon co-administering to a subject in need thereof a pharmaceutically effective amount of an oral therapeutic agent for treating pulmonary hypertension and a pharmaceutically effective amount of an inhaled therapeutic agent for treating pulmonary hypertension. The benefit of the co-administration of these agents is to eliminate or reduce one or more side effects associated with mono-therapy of either agent, as well as one or more side effects associated with other administration routes such as subcutaneous or intravenous administration.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2013Date of Patent: March 3, 2015Assignee: United Therapeutics CorporationInventors: Martine A.

Publication number: 20140180159Abstract: A computing device that enables user interaction when the user is in a mentally debilitating state includes a memory configured to store electroencephalogram (EEG) waveform signals. The EEG waveform signals are generated by associated recognition data. Response data is generated based on the associated recognition data and stored in memory. An input component is configured to receive an EEG waveform signal from a user. A processor is configured to compare the received EEG waveform signal with the stored EEG waveform signals to determine if the received EEG waveform signal matches a stored EEG waveform signal. An output component is configured to automatically output the response data generated by the associated recognition data based on the determination from the processor.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 14, 2013Publication date: June 26, 2014Applicant: Unither Neurosciences, Inc.Inventor: Martine Rothblatt
