  • Publication number: 20250049959
    Abstract: In some aspects, cardiac-specific expression cassettes are provided herein. In some aspects, provided herein is an expression cassette comprising a polynucleotide sequence encoding a gene product for therapy of a heart disease, wherein the polynucleotide sequence is operably linked to promoter (e.g., a cardiac-specific promoter), and optionally an enhancer (e.g., a cardiac-specific enhancer). In some aspects, the disclosure provides recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) virions, comprising a capsid protein and a viral genome comprising an expression cassette comprising a polynucleotide sequence encoding a therapeutic gene product, e.g., dwarf open reading frame (DWORF) polypeptide, operably linked to a promoter, the expression cassette flanked by inverted terminal repeats. The disclosure further provides pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treating or preventing heart disease.

  • Patent number: 10231080
    Abstract: With the increasing usage of mobile devices for communication, the need for wireless base-stations deployed in strategic locations is becoming increasingly important. The increased bandwidths being transmitted between the base-station and the mobile device has mandated that enhanced transmission formats and techniques be deployed, and, in order to operate correctly, these techniques require a tight synchronization in both time/phase, and in frequency, between the various base-stations serving a general area. Due to the need to establish the geographic location of the mobile device with a high degree of accuracy, it is also necessary to establish the location of the serving base-stations with a high degree of accuracy.
