  • Publication number: 20230330142
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides immune cells genetically modified to produce two antigen-triggered polypeptides, each recognizing a different cell surface antigen, wherein the two different cell surface antigens employed are selected from those pairs described herein. The present disclosure further provides systems comprising two antigen-triggered polypeptides (or nucleic acids encoding same), each recognizing a different cell surface antigen, wherein the two different cell surface antigens employed are selected from those pairs described herein. Also provided are method of killing a target cancer cell, using the described genetically modified immune cells and/or systems. The present disclosure also provides polyspecific-immune inducing polypeptides including first and second antigen binding domains specific for first and second antigens, respectively, present on the surface of a target cancer cell.

  • Publication number: 20230203588
    Abstract: The present invention provides biological markers which are molecular and cellular antecedents of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) flares. The invention provides RNA and protein markers that can predict an RA flare one or two weeks prior to the flare. The invention further provides blood circulating cells, particularly pre-inflammatory mesenchymal cells, which are cellular precursors and indicators of an impending RA flare. The present invention further provides methods, kits and markers for identification and monitoring of flares in RA patients and their application as markers and targets in and for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and conditions induced or related to rheumatoid arthritis.

  • Publication number: 20210074378
    Abstract: Processes to identify variants that affect biochemical regulation are described. Generally, models are used to identify variants that affect biochemical regulation, which can be used in several downstream applications. A pathogenicity of identified variants is also determined in some instances, which can also be used in several. Various methods further develop research tools, perform diagnostics, and treat individuals based on identified variants.

  • Publication number: 20210027855
    Abstract: Processes to determine the effect of genetic sequence on gene expression levels are described. Generally, models are used to determine spatial chromatin profile from genetic sequence, which can be used in several downstream applications. The effect of the spatial chromatin profile on gene expression is also determined in some instances. Various methods further develop research tools, perform diagnostics, and treat individuals based on sequence effects on gene expression levels.
