Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to novel methods for detecting tissue damage, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), microbial infections, presence of a tumor, and loss of engraftment in a subject using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) profiling. The methods of the disclosure are in part based on the recognition that damaged tissues, microbes during an infection, tumors, and donor cells (e.g., in a hematopoietic cell transplantation) shed small fragments of cfDNA into blood circulation.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to cytokine-induced memory-like NK cells expressing a chimeric antigen receptor polypeptide that binds to a neoepitope of mutant nucleophosmin (NPM1c) in complex with, or presented by, a class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC class I) protein, or cells expressing such compounds, and their use in methods for treating, or ameliorating one or more symptoms of, cancer.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods for generating cultivated autologous limbal epithelial cell grafts for the treatment of various disorders caused by limbal stem cell deficiency. This invention relates to methods and compositions for treating ophthalmic disorders, diseases and injuries. In particular, the field of the invention is directed to methods, kits and compositions for treating disorders, diseases, defects and injuries of the cornea and ocular surface. The present disclosure relates to preparations of cultured mammalian limbal stem cells, derived from corneal limbus tissue.

Abstract: The present invention is based, in part, on the identification of methods of using multiple-variable IL-2 doses for identifying, assessing, preventing, and treating immune disorders.

Abstract: The present invention is based, in part, on the identification of methods of using multiple-variable interleukin-2 (IL-2) doses for identifying, assessing, preventing, and treating immune disorders.

Abstract: The present invention is based, in part, on the identification of iiicihods of using multiple-variable IL-2 doses for identifying, assessing, preventing, and treating immune disorders.

Abstract: The present invention is based, at least in part, on methods to identify and quantify lineage-specific cells. The present invention provides methods of detecting lineage-specific cells in a biological sample, and monitoring the effectiveness of progenitor cell transfer in a subject. The invention further provides methods of determining an effective dose of progenitor cell transfer in a subject and methods of quantifying progenitor cell transfer in a subject. Additionally, methods are provided to identify allelic variants in lineage-specific cells.

Abstract: The invention provides human chronic myelocytic leukemia-like proteins (CML protein) and isolated nucleic acid molecules encoding the same. Also provided are antibodies that immunospecifically-bind to CML polypeptides or polynucleotides, or derivatives, variants, mutants, or fragments thereof. The invention additionally provides methods in which CML polypeptides, polynucleotides, and antibodies are used in the detection, prevention, and treatment of a broad range of pathological states, and methods of treating malignancy-related disorders by modulating activity or expression of CML proteins.

Abstract: Monoclonal antibody which lyses human natural killer (NK) cells in vitro in the presence of complement and which cells having a molecular weight of about 200-220 KD, as determined by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis on a 10% polyacrylamide gel.
