Melissa Regan has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • TRANSGENIC MAMMALS AND CELL LINES FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF GLUTAMATE TRANSPORTER MODULATORS
    Publication number: 20110201043
    Abstract: The invention includes a transgenic, non-human mammal useful for identifying candidate compounds for treating neurological and/or psychiatric disorders. Incorporated into the genome of the transgenic mammal is a transgene comprising a glutamate transporter promoter operatively linked to a reporter gene. The transgenic, non-human mammal and cells isolated therefrom can be used as an in vivo model for the identification of candidate compounds useful for the treatment of neurological and/or psychiatric disorders.
    Type: Application
