Abstract: Methods, agents, and devices to treat medical conditions through local chemical neuromodulation of the autonomic nervous system are described. Drug formulations may be injected at or near ganglia, nerve plexi, ganglionated plexi, and nerves to treat different diseases. Target sites for the treatment of cardiac and other disease conditions may include extrinsic stellate (cervicothoracic) and cervical ganglia of the sympathetic chain, and intrinsic cardiac nerves and ganglionated plexi innervating the myocardium.

Abstract: Methods of use, formulations, and devices for delivering therapeutic drugs locally to the region of the spleen are described herein. A method for treating sepsis and other inflammatory disease conditions can include inserting a drug delivery system inside the body, advancing the device to the spleen through the splenic artery, splenic vein or other blood vessel adjacent to the splenic nerves, or within a ligament associated with the spleen, such as the splenorenal or gastrosplenic ligaments.

Abstract: Disclosed is a covalently-linked multilayered three-dimensional matrix comprising capture molecules, linkers and spacers (referred to as a Molecular Net) for specific and sensitive analyte capture from a sample. Also disclosed herein is a Molecular Net comprising covalently-linked multilayered three-dimensional matrix comprising more than one type of capture molecule and more than one type of linker and may comprise one or more spacer for specific and sensitive capture of more than one type of analyte from a sample. A Molecular Net may comprise a pseudorandom nature. Use of various capture molecules, linkers and spacers in a Molecular Net may confer unique binding properties to a Molecular Net. Porosity, binding affinity, size exclusion abilities, filtration abilities, concentration abilities and signal amplification abilities of a Molecular Net may be varied and depend on the nature of components used in its fabrication.

Abstract: Methods for treating inflammatory pulmonary diseases by administering to the patient an effective amount of one or more pharmaceutical agents are disclosed. The pharmaceutical agents administered can include antibiotics, steroids, NSAIDs, DMARDs, growth factor receptor inhibitors, PI3K inhibitors, neurotransmitter receptor inhibitors, or protease inhibitors. The dose administered is effective to suppress or prevent initiation, progression, or relapses of disease, including the progression of established disease. The pharmaceutical agent is administered to a patient determined to have the disease and at an amount effective to suppress or prevent activity of the disease. The pharmaceutical agent is administered using a transtracheal, transbronchial, or transvascular drug delivery catheter. The pharmaceutical agent can be administered to the patient's pulmonary tissue to suppress reactions in response to bronchial thermoplasty either before, during, or after bronchial thermoplasty.
