Abstract: Methods of adoptive Neurolmmunotherapy, selecting a subject suitable for adoptive Neurolmmunotherapy, selecting a molecule or combination of molecules for improving therapeutic immune cell potential, and decreasing PD-1 expression on a surface of an immune cell, comprising contacting immune cells with at least one molecule selected from a neurotransmitter or analog thereof, a neuropeptide or analog thereof, or a modulator of a voltage gated ion channel are provided. Kits comprising at least one of those molecules or comprising at least two of those molecules and optionally a PD-1 detecting agent are also provided.

Abstract: A composition-of-matter for use in water treatment, composed of a water-insoluble matrix and one or more amidohydrolase, such as cyanuric acid amidohydrolase, incorporated in or on the matrix, is disclosed. Also disclosed are devices containing same and methods utilizing same for water treatment. The water treatment is effected by an enzymatically-catalyzed reduction of the concentration of an amide-containing compound, such as cyanuric acid, found in chlorinated water of swimming polls, spas and other similar structures.

Abstract: Formulations of fenoldopam are disclosed for repeated administration or continued slow release administration, over prolonged periods of time or targeted slow and regulated delivery. The formulations include those formulations that increase the bioavailability of fenoldopam after oral intake, particularly lipid based nano dispersions and pronanodispersions and surfactant rich formulations. This may be accomplished by entrapment in nanoparticles or liposomal formulations or conjugation to a polymer or small molecule via a soft bond.

Abstract: Methods and compositions comprising GnRH-I and GnRH-II, GnRH-I and GnRH-II antibodies, anti-receptor antibodies, polynucleotide constructs and GnRH-I and GnRH-II analogs for immune enhancement and suppression, prevention and treatment of diseases and conditions characterized by abnormal T-cell activity, treatment of viral and prion-related diseases, and treatment of T-cell related neoplastic diseases are disclosed.

Abstract: A method and device for augmenting the ability of T-cells, NK cells and other body cells, of a patient for fighting disease and invading diseased tissue, and for elevating the level of CD3 zeta expression in T cells for better functioning of these T-cells and their augmented capability to eliminate cancer and infectious organisms, by exposing, for a predetermined exposure period, the first substance of T-cell or other cells to a second substance having a T-cell-boosting capability, such as, but not limited to CD3 zeta elevating capability, increased CXCR4, CD147, 67-kDa laminin receptor and/or any other key receptor in T-cells capability, increased tissue invasion capability, TNFa elevating capability, to augment the ability of the separated cells to fight the disease; and following the predetermined exposure period, reintroducing the first substance of T-cells back into the blood of the subject.

Abstract: Blocking the voltage-gated potassium channel Kv1.1 of T-cells causes the robust and exclusive production of TNF-?, and thus can be used for eradication of cancer, improved eradication of infectious organisms, increased permeability of blood vessels and the blood brain barriers to given molecules and cells, and improved neuronal features, regeneration function and development. Blocking the voltage-gated potassium channel Kv1.1 of T-cells causes the robust and exclusive production of TNF-?. Similarly, unblocking of a blocked Kv1.1 channel or opening of a Kv1.1 channel will prevent the T-cells from producing and secreting excess amounts of TNF-?, thus being useful in the treatment of conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and for treating neurological diseases associated with defected functioning and/or pathological block of the Kv1.1 channel, among them PNH associated with Kv1 Abs; Encephalitis associated with Kv1 Abs; and Episodic-ataxia type 1 (EA-1), in all of which the T-cell blocked Kv1.

Abstract: The dopamine D1/D5 receptor is highly over-expressed in various types of human and animal leukemia, lymphoma and activated T-cells. The dopamine D1 receptor is also expressed in dramatically elevated or even moderate levels in other types of cancer cells. Selective dopamine D1 receptor agonists, such as fenoldopam mesylate, rapidly, potently and selectively kill such human and animal T-cells expressing the dopamine D1 receptor. Thus, selective dopamine D1/5 receptor agonists may be used to treat lymphoma, leukemia and other cancers of the immune system, and T-cell mediated autoimmune diseases and other diseases caused by over-activated inflammatory T-cells (such as chronic inflammation), or graft versus host diseases (GVHD) or graft rejection, or by any other cell types expressing the dopamine D1 receptor, by killing the disease-causing cells.

Abstract: Methods and materials comprising Dopamine, Dopamine analogs, polynucleotide constructs and anti-Dopamine receptor antibodies for immune enhancement and suppression, prevention and treatment of diseases and conditions characterized by abnormal T-cell activity, and treatment of T-cell related neoplastic diseases are disclosed.
