  • Inhibition of prion propagation by receptor associated protein (RAP), its derivatives, mimetics and synthetic peptides
    Patent number: 9051390
    Abstract: A pharmaceutical formulation and method of treatment of prion disease include a RAP agent with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and/or excipient, and the administration of same to a subject suffering from or at risk of a prion disease. The RAP agent is an effective means for the prevention and/or treatment of various prion diseases regardless whether the disease is acquired by infection or by genetic mutation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 17, 2010
    Date of Patent: June 9, 2015
    Assignee: American National Red Cross
    Inventors: Larisa Cervenakova, Oksana Yakovleva

  • Method for identifying ligands specific for structural isoforms of proteins
    Publication number: 20050032138
    Abstract: A method of identifying a ligand specific for a structural isoform of a protein by the binding of the structural isoform to a ligand on a support, a direct positional transfer of the structural isoform and a control isoform between two or more different solid or semi-solid supports and detection of at least one of the isoforms on each support, thus allowing for subtractive identification techniques to be used to identify the subset of ligands, or a ligand, specific for the structural isoform.
