  • Systems and methods to treat pain locally
    Patent number: 8969397
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for contributing to the local treatment of pain. More specifically, the disclosed systems and methods contribute to the local treatment pain by inhibiting the NF?B family of transcription factors.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 5, 2010
    Date of Patent: March 3, 2015
    Assignee: Warsaw Orthopedic, Inc.
    Inventors: Eric N. Burright, Lisa L. Shafer, Bill McKay, John Zanella
  • METHODS AND KITS FOR LINKING POLYMORPHIC SEQUENCES TO EXPANDED REPEAT MUTATIONS
    Publication number: 20120172409
    Abstract: Methods and kits are provided for determining which single nucleotide polymorphism (“SNP”) variant of an allele of a heterozygous patient is on the same allele as a disease-causing mutation. Also, provided are kits for multi-SNP diagnosis and treatment, targeting combinations of SNPs having greater joint prevalence of heterozygosity in Huntington's population than individual SNPs considered individually.
