  • Patent number: 9945853
    Abstract: The present disclosure highlights the relationship between extracellular mitochondrial components, optionally in combination with the secreted phospholipase A2-IIA and/or an auto-antibody, and in vivo as well as in vitro and inflammatory reactions/conditions, especially those released as a result of the degradation of a platelet. The present disclosure provides methods for determining the presence of inflammatory mediators, for limiting inflammatory reactions/conditions, for the diagnosis inflammatory reactions/conditions, for screening therapeutics for the treatment and/or the alleviation of symptoms of inflammatory reactions/conditions based on the detection or modulation of the level of these extracellular mitochondrial components.

    Date of Patent: April 17, 2018
    Assignees: Université Laval, Hérma-Québec, University of Washington
    Inventors: Eric Boilard, Luc Boudreau, Louis Thibault, Michael Herman Gelb
