Abstract: Systems, kits, and methods for detecting and quantifying proteomic activity using DNA-encoded probes are provided, where the proteomic activity may be enzymatic activity or ligand binding affinity. Such systems and methods encode quantitative proteomic activity information into DNA sequence populations and utilize DNA-linked substrates or ligands as activity probes. The systems, kits, and methods that are directed to detecting ligand affinity further include crosslinking steps to ensure the integrity of the DNA-linked ligands during purification and washing. Signal detection involves the chemical manipulation of a probe population downstream of sample exposure and application of purifying, selective pressure for desired products. Selection-induced changes in DNA abundance between the initial pool and the purified pool indicate sample activity.

Abstract: Relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) is the most common form of multiple sclerosis, affecting more than 80% of MS patients. RRMS is comprised of two phases: the auto-inflammatory episodes, in which the immune system is actively destroying myelin, alternate with remission phases.

The methods are useful for promoting remyelination to treat diseases and disorders such as MS. The present disclosure describes compositions and methods useful for inhibiting LRP1 activity. In one aspect, a siRNA against LRP1 can be used. It is disclosed that myelination can be regulated by inhibiting the interaction of LRP1 and p75NTR and that it inhibits activation of Rho-A.
