  • Compositions and methods for reducing traumatic edema of the central nervous system
    Patent number: 10420918
    Abstract: The invention provides compositions and methods for the treatment and/or reversal of an edema, e.g., including a central nervous system (CNS) edema, e.g., a brain or a spinal edema, edema in a burned or an injured tissue such as skin, or any tissue edema. In alternative embodiments, the invention provides compositions and methods for a direct treatment and reversal of an edema, e.g., CNS, brain or spinal edema, including a membrane transport device, in vitro and in vivo characterization of edema, and the sensitive early optical detection of the edema, e.g., tissue, CNS or cerebral edema.

  • SPLENIC IRRADIATION FOR THE TREATMENT OF NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS
    Publication number: 20150335912
    Abstract: Irradiation treatment can be used before, during, or after a surgical treatment or other injury to the brain to decrease or prevent subsequent injury. Injury to the brain during surgery can induce the infiltration of peripheral immune cells, including splenic immune cells, into the brain. The infiltration of immune cells can create acute elevations in brain edema and blood-brain barrier disruption thereby decreasing neurological recover and patient outcomes. Irradiation of peripheral immune cells, or the region of the body in which the cells are derived, can allow for inactivation of the cells and prevent infiltration into the surgical site, for example, the brain.
