  • Patent number: 11607427
    Abstract: A method of radiation-free hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation comprises administering to a mammalian subject one or two doses of 2 to 10 mg/kg body weight of a purine base analog, such as 6TG as a pre-conditioning step. The method further comprises engrafting into the subject hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT)-deficient donor HSCs within 48 to 72 hours of the pre-conditioning step; and administering to the subject about 1 to 5 mg/kg of the purine base analog every two to four days for two to eight weeks following the engrafting step. The method is performed in the absence of pre-conditioning via radiation. The subject is therefore not treated with myeloablative radiation in preparation for transplantation, and thus the subject is free of myeloablative radiation-induced toxicity.

  • Patent number: 10413577
    Abstract: Inoculation of ATM-deficient mice with probiotic microorganisms, such as L. johnsonii, changed immune parameters, decreased a marker of DNA damage and increased the lifespan of the mice. Compositions and methods described herein are useful for the treatment and prevention of Ataxia telangiectasia and other cancer-prone disease, such as p53 deficiency-associated cancers. Compositions and methods of the present invention are also useful for treating and preventing radiation-induced toxicity to normal tissue in a subject being exposed to radiation. Compositions and methods of the invention can increase lifespans in a simple, non-invasive manner.

  • Patent number: 9828641
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for detection of allergic inflammation in a subject that comprises assaying a test sample of peripheral blood from the subject for a marker of DNA damage. An elevated amount of marker present in the test sample compared to control sample is indicative of inflammation. The method can be adapted for quantitatively monitoring the efficacy of treatment of allergic inflammation in a subject. Markers of DNA damage include single- and/or double-stranded breaks in leukocytes, oxidative DNA damage in leukocytes, or a marker of nitric oxide oxidative activity (protein nitrosylation in leukocytes). This unexpected discovery of markers of systemic genotoxicity present in circulating leukocytes enables detection of allergic inflammation with a relatively simple and minimally invasive assay using peripheral blood.
