Abstract: The present technology is directed to identifying neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in blood. For example, the present technology provides artificial intelligence systems, architectures, and/or programs that can rapidly and/or automatically identify and/or enumerate NETs in peripheral blood smears, CBC scattergrams, and the like. The artificial intelligence architectures can be integrated into current automated imaging and/or analysis systems (e.g., automated imaging systems for performing cell blood counts (CBC)). The artificial intelligence architectures can also be integrated into another computing device, such as a mobile device.
Abstract: Disclosed herein are the systems, devices and methods for treating cancer and metastasis using low energy immune priming. The low energy immune priming includes administering immunopriming energy. The low energy immune priming can be combined with an adjunct therapy.
Abstract: Systems and methods for treating cancer and for preventing metastasis using low intensity focused ultrasound in combination with an anti-cancer therapy are disclosed.

Abstract: A sterilizable device comprising electromagnetic transponders separated from one another by a flexible spacer material enclosed within radiofrequency-transparent sterilizable tubing for target tracking during prostate treatments, and method of use thereof.
Abstract: The disclosure provides polypeptides that specifically bind to HLA-DQ8 for treating Type 1 Diabetes (TID) and methods using same for reducing autoimmune destruction of pancreatic islet beta cells. In particular, the present disclosure relates to peptides containing at least one D-amino acid that are capable of blocking the presentation of antigenic islet peptides (e.g., lnsB:9-23) by HLA-DQ8, and to their uses, especially as it relates to the prevention and/or treatment of TID.

Abstract: Methods of delivering therapeutic agents by administering compositions including a bacterial collagen-binding polypeptide segment linked to the therapeutic agent to subjects in need of treatment with the therapeutic agent are provided. In these methods, the therapeutic agent is not a PTH/PTHrP receptor agonist or antagonist, basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) or epidermal growth factor (EGF). The bacterial collagen-binding polypeptide segment delivers the agent to sites of partially untwisted or under-twisted collagen. Methods of treating collagenopathies using a composition including a collagen-binding polypeptide and a PTH/PTHrP receptor agonist are also provided. In addition, methods of treating hyperparathyroidism, and hair loss using compositions comprising a collagen binding polypeptide and a PTH/PTHrP receptor agonist are provided. Finally, methods of reducing hair regrowth by administering a composition including a collagen binding polypeptide and a PTH/PTHrP receptor antagonist are provided.
