Publication number: 20210052909Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for the remote control of cell function based on the use of a magnetic field to excite paramagnetic nanoparticles targeted to specific cell types. The cell type of interest expresses an ion channel wherein excitation of the paramagnetic nanoparticles results in a physical change that is transduced into a cellular response. Such cellular responses may include, for example, increases in gene expression resulting in production of one or more physiologically active proteins. The expression of such proteins can be used to treat a variety of different inherited or acquired diseases or disorders in a subject.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 6, 2020Publication date: February 25, 2021Inventors: SARAH STANLEY, JEFFREY FRIEDMAN, JONATHAN S. DORDICK, JEREMY SAUER

Patent number: 10916082Abstract: A system and method for managing a loading dock and access to a facility or group of facilities by providing a web-based application accessible via the Internet having vendors associated with the web-based application based upon specific needs of the facility. Vendors are provided access to a facility by a user of the web-based application by employing specific methods of identification and authorization, and the user is provided with status information regarding the vendor access. Furthermore, vendor access to a facility can be limited by the user based on various parameters. Those parameters can be used to administrate, manage and secure a facility in terms of understanding which vendors are permitted access to the facility or group of facilities. The web-based application is designed to suit the specific needs of a facility.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2019Date of Patent: February 9, 2021Assignee: Building Intelligence, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Friedman, Travis Sinnott, Max Abramowitz

Patent number: 10786570Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for the remote control of cell function based on the use of radiofrequency waves to excite nanoparticles targeted to specific cell types. The nanoparticles may be applied to the target cell extracellularly and/or expressed intracellularly. The cell type of interest expresses a temperature sensitive channel wherein excitation of the nanoparticles results in a localized temperature increase that is transduced into a cellular response. Such cellular responses may include, for example, increases in gene expression resulting in production of one or more physiologically active proteins. The expression of such proteins can be used to treat a variety of different inherited or acquired diseases or disorders in a subject. Accordingly, the invention provides a generic approach for treatment of any disease associated with a protein deficiency.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2018Date of Patent: September 29, 2020Assignee: The Rockefeller UniversityInventors: Jeffrey Friedman, Sarah Stanley

Patent number: 8230982Abstract: New elevator cab construction and reconstruction of old elevator cabs are frequently presented with the problem of increasing the interior size of the elevator cab in an elevator shaft of limited size. This invention relates to an elevator cab design providing a novel way of increasing internal cab size of a standard elevator cab while still retaining decorative design features by having removable decorative panels. The elevator cab is constructed of the normal elements, namely, a platform, a ceiling, cab shell walls, stiffeners and corner stiffener risers. The cab shell walls have a base and transom and shell panels there between designed to overlap one another so as to be readily attached by spot welding or adhesive. The stiffeners are hat-shaped elongated sections typically of stainless steel that are attached to the inside of the shell panels. The stiffeners may also be formed by hat-shaped ribs formed in the shell panels.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2003Date of Patent: July 31, 2012Inventors: Harold S.
