  • Patent number: 9827290
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods for inducing intestinal stem cell homeogenesis and/or regeneration within intestinal tissue expressing Robo1 through administration of a Rspo1 agent and a Slit2 agent. Administration of such agents results in, for example, binding of the Rspo1 agent and Slit2 agent with Robo1, resulting in, for example, binding of the CC3 motif of Robo1 with LRP6, resulting in phosphorylation of LRP6, and ultimately, induction of intestinal stem cell homeogenesis and/or regeneration. In certain embodiments, such administration of a Rspo1 agent and a Slit2 agent is used to protect and/or prevent intestinal tissue damage resulting from exposure to an intestinal tissue damaging event (e.g., radiation). The agents and related compositions additionally find use in diagnostic and research settings.

  • Patent number: 9690038
    Abstract: A backlight includes a light source and one or more light recycling films. The light source generates light that exits the light source with an angular exit distribution. The light recycling films are oriented in relation to the light source so that the prism peaks of the recycling films are oriented away from the light source. The recycling films have a range of optimal incident angles that allow light to pass through the recycling films without recycling. The components of the light source, the characteristics of the recycling films, or both, are configured to control the overlap between the exit distribution of the light source and the optimal incident angle range of the recycling films.
