  • Patent number: 11655158
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a novel staged-synthesis method for introduction of various metals in the structure of zeolite frameworks by isomorphous substitution. This new method is based on a hydrothermal synthesis in which the metal addition to the precursor suspensions (gel) is delayed. This so-called “staged-synthesis method” allows to obtain nanosized silanol highly homo-geneous crystalline zeolite structures with a control of the metal location.

  • Patent number: 11648319
    Abstract: The invention is directed to the field of gene therapy, i.e. gene delivery into target cells, tissue, organ and organism, and more particularly to gene delivery via viral vectors. The inventors showed that it is possible by chemical coupling to modulate the coupling of a ligand in the surface of the capsid of AAV, for example AAV2 and AAV3b. In particular, the present invention relates to a recombinant Adeno-Associated Virus (rAAV) vector particle having at least one primary amino group contained in the capsid proteins, chemically coupled with at least one ligand L, wherein coupling of said ligand L is implemented through a bond comprising a —CSNH— bond and an optionally substituted aromatic moiety. Particularly, the inventors tested the chemical coupling of mannose ligand on AAV2 for subretinally injection to rats.

  • Patent number: 11618884
    Abstract: The present invention relates to regulatory T cell and uses thereof. By their immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory activities, regulatory T cells play a central role in peripheral tolerance and thus critically prevent the development of autoimmune and inflammatory disorders. The inventors showed that Foxp3+CD4+ Tregs express high levels of LT?, which negatively regulates their immunosuppressive signature. They demonstrated that the adoptive transfer of LT??/? Tregs in mice protects from dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis and attenuates inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), multi-organ autoimmunity and the development of CAC. The inventors also showed that by mixed bone marrow chimeras that LT? expression specifically in hematopoietic cells negatively controls the immunosuppressive signature of Tregs. In particular, the present invention relates to regulatory T cell characterized in that it does not express or expresses reduced levels of lymphotoxin alpha.
