Abstract: The invention relates generally to methods and compositions for treating conditions associated with angiogenesis, and, more specifically, the invention relates to methods and compositions for treating conditions associated with angiogenesis using vascular adhesion protein-1 (VAP-1) inhibitors. The invention also relates to methods and compositions for treating conditions associated with lymphangiogenesis using VAP-1 inhibitors.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a composition comprising palm fruit juice for use in a method of preventing and inhibiting vision loss due to angiogenesis related diseases. The composition of the present invention aids to decrease in CNV size using confocal microscopy, in addition to reduction in macrophage infiltration using immune staining; decrease in VEGF-A-induced angiogenesis using established cornea pocket assay, inhibition of IKB-D phosphorylation in laser treated choroidal tissues and reduction in macrophage recruitment to CNV lesions.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to minimally-invasive, in vivo methods of detecting one or more ligands on an intraluminal surface of a blood vessel using microparticles coated with one or more ligand binding partners. More particularly, in certain embodiments, the invention relates to minimally-invasive, in vivo methods of detecting endothelial and leukocyte antigens that are predictive of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and/or other conditions using protein-conjugated microparticles detectable by a non-invasive detection system, for example, a scanning laser ophthalmoscope. In other embodiments, the invention relates to targeted delivery of drugs or other substances to specific regions of an intraluminal surface of a blood vessel using drug-containing microparticles coated with one or more ligand binding partners.

Abstract: The technology described herein is directed to methods and assay related to macrophage differentiation and the role of such in pathogenesis.
